Tree, Nether, Pyramid and Floating Dungeons

This is a world generation modifying Minecraft mod that adds 4 new type of dungeon: Tree, Nether, Pyramid and Floating dungeons!

Tree dungeons:


Simply, the tree dungeon is a dungeon that generates on the surface as a bunch of trees. Currently there isn't much unique about this but I hope to add more things over time.

Nether Dungeons


Simply, it is a dungeon that generates in the nether with a pillar in the middle and lava at the bottom.

Pyramids


(yes yes a snow biome, they never showed up when I limited their spawning to sand.)
Simply, pyramids are pyramid shaped dungeons with a fountain in the middle and 4 random monster spawners. There is a chest hidden in the pyramid as well, try and find it.

Floating Islands


Floating islands! They look like they have been torn straight from the ground. Inside the floating islands is a mob spawner and a chest. Be careful though! Mobs can spawn in the crater too!

The rarity is as rare as I can reasonably manage to get them. They have a 1 in 3 chance of checking a chunk, and a 1 in 100 (1 in 50 for nether dungeons and 1 in 75 for pyramids but still very rare) chance of spawning there if the chunk is suitable. And a suitable chunk is rare.

Woah... Never thought of that... Maybe you could add treehouses too?

[ibeatu85x]

lol, its actually kinda funny

[Omgkenishere]

For the dungeons, i think you should change the spawner to spawn passive mobs if you can I'd think that'd be cool.

First mod? My first mod was fossils, my second was biome caves, my 3rd was ECFF my 4th was flax, my 5th was Sulphur, my 6th one is this one, along with multiple other mods I never released and my rain fix and mini mods/tweaks.

So no, it isn't my first mod it's just small.

Can't remember if it is tied to seeds or not, anyway if people want I can upload my debug version.

Added nether dungeons. Look at the OP for more information.

Nether+tree nice !! thank you. Next make underwater duungeons(that would be cool surrounded by glass at least we can see it) or (sky dungeons xD) !! Thank you

Not bad, not bad.

Suggestions and Questions:

• Will the Nether Dungeons spawn Nether mobs (Ghasts, as Zombie Pigmen are neutral)?
  
• Will Tree dungeons have the same items, or will they have different items?
  
• Some Tree Dungeon items could be: Eggs, Green Wool, Saplings, Wheat, Seeds, Wooden Tools, Flowers, Silk, lots of Mushrooms, Arrows and Mossy Cobblestone. They occasionally have the normal dungeon items aswell.
  
• Tree Dungeons should spawn spiders. I imagine all kinds of creepy crawlies living inside trees, and Spiders are the only bug-like mob in Minecraft. Sometimes Tree Dungeons could also have Creeper spawners (Notch said he though of Creepers as Leaf monsters).
  
• Will Nether dungeons have different items than normal Dungeons? (I think they should at least have some Nether-items and Obsidian)
  
• Maybe special Nether Dungeons made of Glowstone? These would have items such as Gold Ingots, Gold Ores, Glowstone Dust, Glowstone blocks, Gold Tools, Gold Swords and Watches. These could spawn Zombie Pigmen, possibly?
  
• I think it would be really cool to have dungeons that would be the skulls of giant fossilized beasts. These would probably have Skeleton spawners in them.

what is in these chest. random items like the other chests or rare stuff? e.g diamond

To answer:

• Nether dungeons do not spawn anything, there in no room for a spawner as it is supposed to be dangerous to go into the lava
  
• Tree dungeons currently have the same items though it will change to weaker items in the future
  
• Nice suggestion, will add as soon as I can
  
• I may add creepers, yes. Not sure about limiting to just them though.
  
• Nether dungeons currently only have the normal dungeon items but a bit more of them, this will change in the future.
  
• Possible, yes. Will think about it.
  
• Not sure how I would best execute that but it is a good idea.

Currently my main focus is improving the nether dungeons.

I might also work on underwater dungeons. (Sky dungeons maybe but I'm worried they may be ugly and too visible.
