The Nether, Skylands, and Farlands exist as seperate worlds on RetroMC, and each of them have some unique features.

Nether

The Nether is semi-anarchy; id est: griefing and PvP are allowed inside the Nether.
The area inside (when going through the portal at the spawn island) is covered in bedrock, and contains an entryway into wilderness.
Mushrooms are galore in the Nether, which makes this a perfect gathering place, albeit with zombie pigmen and ghasts looming as threats.

Skylands

The Skylands is a custom dimension based off the prototype in the code of Beta 1.6-1.8 and was added on February 22nd of 2019.
It can be accessed with the skylands warp, that is: /warp skylands & do /wild or /random to teleport out of spawn.

Differences from the original Skylands prototype

  • All other mobs can spawn, & this includes monsters as well.
  • Falling in the void takes you back to the spawn point in the Overworld.

Diffences from the normal map

  • There is no option for the Skylands in the overviewer due to the latter being extremely resource hungry & has to be limited in CPU consumption via software.

Currently, the map merely overlays a player's location in the Skylands onto the Overworld map.

  • The world border is smaller - roughly 9800 × 9800 blocks.

Farlands

The Farlands were added at the end of 2020 as part of a Christmas event, and was intended to be removed on January 1st 2021.
But due to [Reason To-Be-Added], the world was kept.
The world itself is customly generated, via Ork, a bot, terrain generator and entrepreneur (but as of 16th November 2021, it broke and 16.png 7n9 was unable to fix it), as the actual Farlands would've consumed a lot of storage when generated through normal means.
