The mountain biome is characterized by very uneven terrain. Many high, almost sheer cliffs are generated here.
Sometimes one or more sides of the cliff are almost gentle, which allows you to climb on them simply by jumping over the blocks. But sometimes it is possible to reach the top and descend only with a pickaxe with a sufficient margin of safety.
In mountain biomes, you can see amazing structures - arches and grottoes, waterfalls and lavopads, which can become not only a decoration for your home, but also an excellent landmark. It is in this biome that you can find flying islands. At the foot of the mountains, there are often small lakes, comfortably fenced off from the world by cliffs. Octopuses can even be found in the lakes, and it will not be difficult to catch fish in them at all.
Deposits of coal and iron often appear on the surface of the cliffs, and deep caves can be found inside the mountains, going down to the very administration. Mountain biomes often have open caverns that can be explored in search of minerals without wasting time digging mines. The main thing is to take more torches and a durable one - such caves are usually full of zombies. For miners looking to connect with the locals, the mountain biome is very important as emerald ore is only found here.
The mountains are mostly covered with a small layer of earth and grass. Sometimes you can find entire areas of bare cobblestone and lava lakes located on it. There are few trees generated, but there are usually enough trees to craft the necessary tools. There are also a small number of flowers and peaceful mobs, though less than on the plain or in the forest. Perhaps this is due to the fact that they fall from the rocks and break.
The mountain biome is good for building a house. If you make an entrance in a sheer cliff not high above the ground, then it will be difficult for monsters to get into your house, and at night you can explore the caves lying at the foot of the mountain and improve them to your liking.
It is not worth placing a house on the top of the mountain, although it is easier to protect it from mobs there. But then too much time will have to be spent on campaigns for resources. Unless, of course, you have Industrial Craft 2, and you are not going to install a generator.
It is convenient to arrange a lighthouse on the mountain from lavopad or a burning hellish stone, it will be visible from afar.
The disadvantage of the mountain biome is that there is a lot of shadow on its territory, in which mobs spawn even during the day. It is not easy to run away from them because of the difficult terrain. The mountain biome makes farming difficult and it is difficult to fence off the necessary territory on it, because mobs can easily jump on your head from some cliff.
By the way, while I play Minecraft, my sister gets to me, but I open a site on my laptop where all free games are collected only for girls and I let her play on the site gamergirl.ru. And I myself sometimes play interesting flash games on this site. Recommend.
In this article, I will tell you about all the biomes available in Minecraft. Well, what are biomes? Biomes are natural and climatic zones into which the entire map in Minecraft is divided. Each biome is unique in its own way, and represents separate zones of the landscape with different relief.
So let's go in order ...
A very large, open-air biome made entirely of water. At the bottom of the ocean, mountains and plains are often found; the bottom itself is made of clay and gravel. The depth of the ocean can reach 30 blocks, and the length is up to several thousand blocks. At times in the ocean, small or large islands can be generated.
A relatively flat biome with hilly terrain and a lot of tall grass. Trees can also be generated, but very infrequently. A huge number of ravines and ponds, in addition, huge gorges can appear on the surface. The only one of the three biomes in which villages are generated. Horses can also spawn here.
This biome consists only of cacti, sand (sandstone), dry bushes. Sometimes there are sand wells, temples and typical sandy villages. Rarely, due to bugs, it is allowed to meet cacti up to 7 blocks high.
A mountain biome that was released not so long ago. Trees are generated, however infrequently. Here, more than other biomes are allowed to meet such magnificent structures as cliffs, arches, overhangs, waterfalls, floating islands. Here is the highest possibility of generating underground caves. Sometimes there are not very large lakes at sea level. Only in this biome is it allowed to meet emerald ore.
A biome with a huge number of oak and / or birch trees, plus a lot of tall grass.
Tundra with a considerable number of conifers and dark blue grass. Quite often, the taiga is generated hilly. After update 1.7.2, there are 2 types of taiga: taiga without snow and the most rare cold taiga, in which snow falls and the water freezes.
A flat biome with many small lakes. Trees can grow in lakes, a huge number of mushrooms (mainly coffee) grow under them, and vines grow on the foliage. In addition, it is allowed to find reeds. The water is grayish; water lilies float on its surface. There can be a considerable amount of clay in front of the water. The Witch's hut is also generated.
The only biome of the Nether. At heights 1 and 128 it is limited by bedrock. The ocean of lava is located at a height of 31. In addition, lava flows faster and further than in the ordinary world. Ghasts, lava cubes, efreet, wither skeletons and zombie pigmen spawn only here. In this biome, hellish fortresses are generated.
The only biome of the End. Implies a low, confined area of Endstone in the middle of a void lined with obsidian pillars. Only Ender travelers, Ender silverfish and the only Ender dragon spawn here. A very interesting biome, the meaning of which is to kill the Dragon.
A snow-covered empty area with practically no trees, the surface of rivers and lakes in this biome consists of ice.
Mushroom island
A biome that is most often generated on a peninsula in the ocean. The earth in it is covered with mycelium. A very unique biome in which the Mushroom Cow will live.
The biome in which tropical trees and their giant variants grow - baobabs. They have a lot of foliage and vines, unlike other biomes, in addition, fern grows in this biome. The biome is hilly, there are mountains. In addition, a temple can be found in this biome. In tropical thickets, aggressive mobs spawn a little, since there is a lot of foliage here, so spawning is impracticable.
A biome is a collection of ecosystems in one natural and climatic zone. In Minecraft, these are natural zones into which the world was divided after the Halloween Update. They represent separate zones of the landscape with different plants, relief and blocks that make up the landscape.
Biome types.
There are 12 types of biomes in total:
Jungle.
A biome with a very large number of giant and common trees. On them you can find many vines and foliage. Ferns can also be found in this biome. This biome is predominantly hilly with mountains. The crown of a tropical tree that grows on a hill is the highest natural point in the game. In addition, this biome is home to a friendly ocelot mob capable of sprinting. Also, only in this biome can you find a "temple in the jungle". In the jungle, hostile mobs very rarely spawn, since there is a lot of foliage and spawning is impossible.
Swamp.
A flat biome with many small lakes. Trees grow in lakes, and mushrooms (mostly brown) grow under them. You can also find reeds. The water is predominantly gray in color, and water lilies float on its surface, for which no tool is needed to collect. Underwater, you can find a lot of clay, from which you can make bricks. Also, a witch's hut is often found here.
Forest.
A biome with a very large number of birch and / or oak trees and a fair amount of grass. It can sometimes appear as a tech biome within a lowland biome.
Taiga.
Snowy landscape with blue-gray grass and many conifers. Since version 1.8 Beta, wolves appear there much more often. In 1.1, the developers fixed a bug due to which there was no snow and ice in the taiga. Most of the taiga is generated hilly. Since version 1.7, there are two options: taiga without snow and cold taiga, in which water freezes and snow falls.
Desert.
This biome is predominantly composed of sand, dry bushes and cacti. There are no trees because there is no land in the desert. Lava lakes, sediments and water lakes are not uncommon. Sand wells, characteristic sand villages and temples are rare. Sometimes, due to bugs in the desert, you can find cacti up to seven blocks in height.
Plain.
A flat biome with lots of tall grass and rolling hills. Trees are very rare. On the plains there are a very large number of ponds and ravines, and a canyon can also come to the surface. This is one of three biomes in which villages come across (the second is the savannah, the third is the desert).
Ocean.
A very large biome made entirely of water. At the bottom, you can find plains and mountains, and the bottom itself mainly consists of gravel and clay. You can also often find canyons. The depth of the ocean reaches 30 blocks, and the length - up to several thousand. Occasionally, islands are generated in the ocean like small versions of other biomes.
Tundra.
A barren snowy area with virtually no trees, the surface of lakes and rivers in this biome is covered with ice.
The mountains.
The mountain biome, which was introduced in 1.8 Beta. Trees are rarely generated. More often than not other biomes, scenic structures such as arches, cliffs, waterfalls, overhangs and flying islands can be found here. Also in the mountains there is the greatest chance of generating underground caves. Sometimes there are small lakes at sea level. Emerald Ore can only be found in this biome.
Mushroom Island.
The biome most frequently generated in the ocean on an island. All the ground on it is covered with mycelium. This is the only biome, with the exception of the Dark Forest, where huge mushrooms grow and where mushrooms can grow in daylight. Only mushroom cows spawn naturally in this landscape.
Minecraft is a sandbox game. This play position was released in 2009, gaining acceptance and widespread adoption very quickly. This phenomenon was mainly due to the fact that, in fact, the game is a multifunctional editor that allows you to carry out any ideas. A variety of single and multiplayer modes, modifications and plugins makes it possible to radically change the gameplay.
What is Minecraft?
First of all, this game will really appeal to creative people, since the possibilities of the game provide all the tools sufficient to create unimaginable architectural as well as landscape masterpieces. In addition, fans of the strategy genre will undoubtedly appreciate this game, since they will have the opportunity to engage in any occupation: the development of their own base and settlement, the extraction of resources directly with their own hands and in the first person. Game tools enable the player to realize themselves in the construction industry, industry, landscape design, agriculture and many other areas. Of course, this is not easy, since there is a constant need to improve tools and equipment, as well as equipment, which will require considerable material costs. In addition, in addition to friendly animals and creatures, the player will also encounter vicious enemies that pose a great danger, and therefore it will be necessary to take care of weapons.
Variety in the sandbox
It is curious that many other popular games were copied and recreated inside the Minecraft game. This became possible thanks to the unique game editor, and the creators of the modes are helped a lot by biomes in Minecraft.
Game worlds can be very diverse, and this mainly depends on the mode and conditions of the game itself. Often, players can independently influence the appearance of the world and its locations. Almost unlimited possibilities in the construction of objects, as well as in landscape work, allow you to change and modify the appearance of the game reality beyond recognition.
Biomes in Minecraft
In gaming terminology, there is such a thing as a biome. In other words, it denotes a natural area. Depending on this, the algorithms of the game will determine what type of land surface to generate, for example, snowy or grassy, as well as what trees, reservoirs, weather conditions, animals should be placed in this reality. The game has over 60 natural areas.
Biomes in Minecraft can create snowy mountains, jungles, arid desert, green meadows, and many other game locations that are identical to the real ones.
Depending on the biome, or region, not only the appearance and weather conditions will change, but also the relief. All these factors directly affect the activities of the players and the complexity of the process. Various weather and temperature regimes, landscape features, as well as resource saturation make some locations tasty spots, while others, on the contrary, are sterile and inappropriate for research.
For example, the category of snow biomes includes cold taiga, tundra, and a plain of ice thorns. Here you can meet rabbits, wolves, coniferous trees grow in some locations, and, of course, there are many snow blocks. There is also a reduced number of friendly mobs here.
On the contrary, in dry and warm natural zones there is a much greater variety of playful flora and fauna: golden rabbits, cows, sheep, horses, cacti, acacia. In can be found But the hottest in this biome is definitely hell. There is a huge amount of minerals here: ore, sands of souls, gravel. Also in this location there are a lot of extremely hostile creatures: wither skeletons, ghasts, Enderwalkers, efreet and others.
In earlier versions, players could control biomes when creating a game, but now this feature is activated by default. New biomes are constantly being introduced into the game, and now there are already several dozen of them.
"Minecraft": mods
Minecraft is a game that is extremely popular with millions of users. Naturally, there are many computer craftsmen among them who create their own modifications. Of course, over the years of the game's existence, thousands of all kinds of mods have been created. Including there is a section called "Minecraft": mod for biomes ", which makes the game even more diverse.
Modifications to biomes are developed specifically in order to radically change the entire game world. They replace standard textures with higher quality ones, change the general appearance of locations, game objects and characters. All of this together affects the atmosphere of the game, making it more fun and realistic.
Seeds for Minecraft
There are thousands of game worlds in Minecraft, each of which has its own map. This scheme is equipped with an identification number called a seed. Using this code, you can find your own card or connect to another player and admire his creations. In this regard, there are biome seeds in the Minecraft game, which provide the numbers of ready-made and fully developed maps. This is very convenient for avid gamers who do not want to waste time searching for cards manually. The most notable biome in this case is the snowy mountains, where you can find snow, ice, rabbits and snow blocks.
Here are some examples of finished seeds:
- Snowy mountains (key: 805516025834347901).
- Red Desert (key: minecraftbook_506).
- Taiga (key: 3615051348055423405).
- Swamp (key: minecraftbook_12).
Biome features
As mentioned above, there are different biomes in Minecraft, each of which has its own unique and inimitable features. First of all, biomes differ in environmental conditions in them, but the greatest role for the player is played by their saturation with resources, as well as the type of these resources directly.
In certain zones, construction can be well developed, and if the appropriate mod is installed, then industry. In others, there is nothing besides reeds and wood, and therefore you cannot count on anything more than a hut or a tree house. Some locations are saturated with water resources and sea spaces, which makes it possible to develop this industry, respectively.
