YUNG's Better Dungeons (NeoForge) [1.20.4 - 1.21.1 ONLY]

by YUNGNICKYOUNG · on CurseForge

Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for NeoForge only.

Minecraft 1.21–1.21.1Newest
Minecraft 1.20.4

⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.1 ⬇ Download for 1.20.4

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

YUNG's Better Dungeons

What is this?

A complete redesign of Minecraft's dungeons like never before. YUNG's Better Dungeons redesigns vanilla dungeons while also adding three new dungeons: Catacombs, Fortresses of the Undead, and Spider Caves!

1.19.2 introduces the Nether Update! Now you can find small Nether dungeons scattered throughout the Nether. Note that this is an extra opt-in feature, meaning you will need to manually enable it in the mod's config.

Compatibility

YUNG's Better Dungeons is intended to be fully compatible with every worldgen mod, including:

YUNG's Better Strongholds
YUNG's Better Mineshafts
YUNG's Extras
YUNG's Bridges
Repurposed Structures. RS also offers a custom data pack you can use in addition to the mod that adds repurposed versions of the small dungeons from Better Dungeons! Check it out here.

Each individual dungeon can be tweaked in the config and via data pack. Vanilla dungeons can also be enabled to generate alongside Better Dungeons via data pack.
