Summary

biomed is a free Minecraft biome editor for Java world saves. It lets users choose a biome and apply it to a map with Fill or Draw tools, then switch between biome and map views. A Fix Snow/Ice tool melts snow and ice in warm biomes and adds them in cold biomes. Users can open a savegame from File > Open World or select its region directory manually, then save changes through File > Save. The editor focuses on biome and region changes; it does not edit terrain or entities. It supports batch operations and Minecraft saves containing level.dat and a region directory. biomed runs on Linux, macOS, and Windows and requires GTK 2.x. Precompiled downloads are listed for 64-bit Linux and 32-bit Windows. The README advises backing up maps before editing. The software is offered under the MIT license, which permits use, copying, modification, distribution, sublicensing, and sale subject to its conditions; it comes without warranty.
