Remove Deep Dark Cave Biome
Remove Deep Dark Cave Biome is a Minecraft Java datapack that prevents the Deep Dark cave biome from generating in newly created worlds. It leaves the rest of world generation intact, making it useful for players who prefer underground exploration without sculk, Warden encounters, or the atmosphere associated with this biome. Unlike broader alternatives, it focuses only on Deep Dark removal and does not disable Pillager structures. The pack is listed for Minecraft 1.21 and 1.21.1, though compatibility with other world generation changes may be limited. At BoxToPlay, we recommend it for a calmer Minecraft server survival experience.

Create: Numismatics Recipes
This Minecraft datapack expands Create: Numismatics by adding crafting recipes for its currency items, including spurs, bevels, sprockets, coins, and other monetary components.

We recommend it for any Minecraft server focused on automation, trade, and industrial progression with BoxToPlay.

Designed for singleplayer worlds and server Minecraft environments, it offers a simple gameplay adjustment that our BoxToPlay team recommends for calmer survival adventures without removing access to Elytra repairs and related recipes.
Kill Shrink

Each time you kill a mob, your character becomes slightly smaller, gradually changing movement, visibility, and the way you approach survival. The effect turns ordinary combat into a constant risk, since continued hunting can leave you tiny.Golden apples restore your size little by little, while enchanted golden apples trigger a much stronger growth effect because they are rarer. The datapack is designed to work with the Pehkui mod, which handles player scaling, and supports Minecraft 1.20.1, 1.21, and 1.21.1. BoxToPlay makes this unusual challenge easy to enjoy on your server.
