About this project

What does Natural Waters add?

Natural Waters makes every river, lake, and ocean shine with vibrant colors inspired by Minecraft Bedrock Edition. Each biome has its own beautiful water style, and modded biomes are automatically supported, keeping every world lively and full of atmosphere.

Everything is easy to tweak. Adjust water color, fog, transparency, and more with simple per-biome settings via resource packs. Whether you want soft, calm lakes or glowing jungle rivers, this mod lets every body of water look stunning and unique.

INSTALLATION REQUIRED ON CLIENT

REQUIRES PUZZLES LIB TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC & NEOFORGE)

REQUIRES FABRIC API TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC)

REQUIRES FORGE CONFIG API PORT TO BE INSTALLED (FABRIC)

If available for a mod, configuration is possible directly from in-game using the mod menu (requires Mod Menu by Prospector to be installed on Fabric). Please note that on older Minecraft versions installing Forge Config Screens is also a requirement.

For manual configuration using an external text editor all files are found at .minecraft/config, named as MOD_ID-client.toml, MOD_ID-common.toml, or MOD_ID-server.toml, depending on the type of config. Not all types might exist for a mod, if any at all.

🌟 Thanks to 2Retr0 for inspiring this project with their original BedrockWaters mod.
