X-Ray World Generation

Instead of caves, hills, and solid layers, you mainly get air, plus the ores and structure shells you would normally spot with x-ray. Made for surprising exploration on a Minecraft server, it creates a strange survival challenge where resources are easy to see but the void is close by. At BoxToPlay, we see it as a fun cursed world option for players who want something unusual and instantly memorable.
