Better Nether Mod 1.16.5/1.15.2 was designed as improvement for the Nether, adding more biomes, plants and materials into it. I’ve tried to make its content unique and interesting for exploring as also useful.

FAQ:
Where is config file?
It is in “config” folder (<minecraft_folder>/config/betternether.json). You can use “ModList” mod to see some config values in game, but not all (config is very large, it’s hard to represent it full).
Here is information about JSON format.
Is this mod compatible with X mod?
Mod was designed to be compatible with others. If there is an issue – report it on GitHub.
Can you make version for X Minecraft?
Only for newer versions (later than 1.15 and for 1.15) and not immediately. Sometimes update is not required and last version works well.
Can you make forge version?
No, but if you really want it – you can make it by yourself and publish for others (MIT License). Porting such big mod to another modloader is a heavy task, due to not only large amount of code. It modified different game aspects – mushrooms growing on custom mycelium, maps rendering, fog distance, armor rendering fixes, recipe building, biomes modification etc, which is not possible with current Forge tools. It is possible to use third party libraries, but Forge code is much less stable than vanilla one and probably each new version will be incompatible with most code.
Will you continue 1.12 development?
No, 1.12 is not supported anymore. Last version is stable enough to play, development is focused on modern versions. If you have issues with 1.12 you can use information from “Some tips [1.12]” above.
Does mod have a wiki?
Yes, but it is very incomplete and a bit outdated. You can actually help with it. Here it is.
