The mod Highlands adjusts Minecraft terrain using the same parameters as customized worlds along with a few other changes that are not possible through customized world settings. This preset was adapted from the one used in Highlands with some small differences. It will generate terrain that looks identical to how the vanilla biomes look in a Highlands world, with no mods required.
The result is a realistic world with rolling hills and mountains that can be tall, but rarely have overhangs or sheer cliffs.

I'll consider using this.
Watch out for the crabocalypse. Some say the day will never come. But it will.
Feel free to drop by for a chat whenever.
If you'd like to talk with me about other games, here are a few I play.
Team Fortress 2
Borderlands series (Borderlands 2 is my favorite game, ever. TPS combat is a lot of fun and makes up for the lower-quality story, in my opinion)
Elder Scrolls series
Warframe (IGN is something like That_One_Flesh_Atronach)
Pokémon series (HGSS forever)
Rocket League
Fallout series
Left 4 Dead 2 (Boomer files always corrupt though)
SUPERHOT (SUPERHOT is the most innovative shooter I've played in years!)
Dead Rising series (Dead Rising 2 is one of my favorite games, and the 3rd was a lot of fun. 1st has poor survivor AI and the 4th is bad)
Just Cause series
Come to think of it, I mainly play fighting-based games.
The highlands mod link in the OP was incomplete for me. Here is a link to the highlands mod.
Intrigued by the generation. May give it a try this weekend, thanks for sharing it.

I tried it with terrible results. I gave my wife my glasses for a second, a creeper showed up and now my wife is pregnant.
Stupid 3D..
