Do I need William Wythers' Overhauled Overworld for this to work?

Yes. This data pack is an add-on for that one, so you need to install William Wythers' Overhauled Overworld first. Then add Towering Tepuis on top.

Will tepuis generate in my existing world?

The best results come from new worlds. Old chunks won't regenerate with the tepuis. If you want them in an existing world, you'd need to explore new terrain or use tools to regenerate chunks.

What are tepuis exactly?

Tepuis are massive table-top mountains found in South America, especially around Venezuela. They have flat tops and nearly vertical cliffs. This data pack adds similar structures to your Minecraft world.

Can I use this with other mods or data packs?

It works alongside most data packs, but test it first if you're using other world generation packs. Since it relies on William Wythers' Overhauled Overworld, compatibility depends on how those other packs interact with that mod.

How hard is it to climb a tepui?

Pretty hard with just a pickaxe. The cliffs are steep and sheer, so you'll want to bring blocks to build your way up or find a natural path. That's part of the challenge.

Towering Tepuis Data Pack (1.21.1, 1.20.1)

Towering Tepuis Data Pack transforms your Minecraft world with massive table-top mountains inspired by real-world geological formations from South America. This add-on works with William Wythers’ Overhauled Overworld and spawns towering tepuis in jungle-adjacent mountain regions. Each one hides a secret: a lost world beneath with ancient creatures and hidden caverns.

What You Get

The Tepuis Themselves

These aren’t your average mountains. The tepuis rise straight up from the jungle floor with sheer cliff faces that look absolutely incredible. They’re massive enough to be a real landmark in your world, and each one feels like its own isolated ecosystem.

Hidden Cavern Networks

Dig into the tepui and you’ll find interconnected cave systems underneath. It’s like an entire underground world waiting to be explored. The design makes you feel like you’re discovering something that was lost for ages.

Prehistoric Flora and Fauna

The caverns aren’t empty. They’re filled with ancient life that gives off serious “Lost World” vibes, kind of like the classic Arthur Conan Doyle story. Not just decoration either, these make the caves actually feel alive and worth exploring.

Challenges and Exploration

Getting up those cliffs is no joke. The steep terrain means you’ll need to think about your approach, whether that’s building up, finding a path, or just being careful with your pickaxe. Once you’re down in the caverns, things get even trickier. You’re not just exploring, you’re dealing with whatever lives down there.

What You Need

This data pack requires William Wyther’s Overhauled Overworld Data Pack. Install that first, then add this on top.
