Do I need Forge to use Simpleretrogen?

Yes, Simpleretrogen requires Minecraft Forge. It won't work with vanilla Minecraft or other mod loaders. Install Forge for your version first, then add this mod to your mods folder.

Will Simpleretrogen break my existing world?

No. Simpleretrogen regenerates new content into existing chunks without destroying any blocks you've placed or modified. It only adds content from world generators you've configured.

What mods work with Simpleretrogen?

Any mod that uses Minecraft Forge's IWorldGenerator system will work. Most major mods do. Check the mod's documentation to find the IWorldGenerator class name, then add it to the config file.

Can Simpleretrogen cause lag or performance issues?

It can if you regenerate too many chunks at once. That's why the maxPerTick setting exists. Lower it if you experience server lag during regeneration.

How do I know if regeneration is working?

Watch your server logs for retrogen messages, or check your world files to see if new content appears. The marker in the config file proves which chunks have been processed.

What is Simpleretrogen Mod?

Simpleretrogen is a utility mod that solves a common problem: adding a new mod with world generation to an existing world. Instead of needing a fresh world to get all the content, this mod regenerates that content into chunks you’ve already explored.

When you add a mod that generates ores, structures, or biomes, Simpleretrogen injects that content into existing chunks without destroying anything. It tracks which chunks have been regenerated so it doesn’t duplicate content.

How It Works

The mod works with any mod that uses Minecraft Forge’s IWorldGenerator system (which is most mods). You configure which world generators to retrogenerate, and the mod handles the rest automatically.

Configuration

Configuration is straightforward. Open the config file and add the world generator classes you want to retrogenerate. Here’s an example with Tinkers Construct slime islands:

general {
# Marker to apply to chunks to indicate retrogen occurred
S:marker=CPWRGMARK

# Maximum number of retrogens to run in a single tick
I:maxPerTick=100

# List of IWorldGenerator instances to fire retrogen for
S:worldGens < slimeknights.tconstruct.world.worldgen.SlimeIslandGenerator >
}

The marker value lets you force regeneration to run again by changing it. The maxPerTick setting controls how many chunks regenerate per tick, preventing server lag.
