Biome editor

[Jorge]

Hello im using DW 5.2.1 pack, and found a troublemaker bug that makes me look for a biome editor.

Basically, i dont know when, but extrabiomes implemented the "meadows" biome, and took plains biome out of the equation. Now, why is this a problem??? normally, never, but there is one bee that require "plains biome" for the mutation. Is not temperature, is not humidity, its biome based.

Can someone help me, please??? Thank you

Plains still exists in FTB, you should search better

I never said plains dont exist. I get them on mystcraft ages, but on the overworld, extrabiomes tweak the terrain generator and "meadows" biomes are created instead of plain biomes.

Believe me, i have 1 gig of searching, and no luck so far. Thats why i want to change one of this "meadows" biome into plain biome

No LightKnight is right, Plains DO exist in the overworld. Meadows do not replace them, the simply coexist. If you explored that much, you've got bad luck, but they do indeed exist. But ... if you got a mystcraft page, why not create a plains age and breed your bees there? Once you got them, you can also use them in the overworld.

I know they show up in myst.ages because y tested on single/test world. But dont have enough pages to get an stable age (also miss the plains biome ).

Ah, in this case you have 3 options: collect pages until you find the plains page and create an age - this page can be found quite often, but because of the sheer number of pages you still need a bit of luck. Fastest way to collect pages imho is to go age surfing in random ages and loot the libraries. Also, the age does not need to be perfectly stable, as long as you don't have decay or things like meteors you should be fine for breeding a single bee. Second option is to explorer the overworld further, eventually you WILL find a plains biome. But you probably don't feel like doing this. Last option: I know that the biomes are stored in the region files for each coordinate. You might find a tool that can change these biome ids (never tried it, but you might have luck with MCEdit). Otherwise you might find a way to edit the NBT in the region files data directly, but thats probably messy. I'd go with option one - mystcraft pages - because you probably want a good collection of pages anyway.

Could someone PLEASE make a MCedit biome filter for FTB!!!

Why? We have other mods to change Biomes already. Look into Blood Magic if you MUST have a plains Biome. One of the later rituals allows you to change biomes from one to another.

ya but it would be super fun to be able to change chunks of land with a biome that's all over the place with a biome that is super hard to find.

You do realize that changing the Biome only changes temperature, and humidity, and occasionally what spawns there, right? Blocks remain the same, no new villages show up if they would have a chance to spawn in that biome, and the only mod that really cares about biome's as a whole is Forestry.

Ya but i got a mod program called MCedit that allows you to repopulate chunks. It can also copy biomes along with selected blocks; i can't seem to find any of the super epic plenty o biomes ones, it would be cool to just change biomes and repopulate chunks with biomes i can't seem to legitly find. So, for instance, i wanna be able to take a prairie biome, change the biome to a fancier Plenty o Biomes one such as the bamboo forrest, then repopulate the chunks, and then i will have a bamboo forrest! Sethbling made a setbiome filter a while back for vanilla minecraft, someone needs to make a setbiome filter for Biomes o Plenty! Also, anyone know of any good seeds for the more rare biomes in biomes o plenty?

If you are really stuck you could always copy chunks from a world where you have found the biome or an ic2 terra former might work. A magic forest might have good temperature or humidity for bees and you can make one of those by growing silver wood trees
