This update delivers a major overhaul of Arnis' terrain engine with a new multi-source elevation pipeline. Regional high-resolution providers (USGS 3DEP, IGN France, IGN Spain, Japan GSI) now complement AWS Terrain Tiles for sharper coverage across North America, Europe and Asia. Buildings and mountains can finally reach above the vanilla build height through a bundled datapack for Java Edition and behavior pack for Bedrock Edition. Besides a GUI refresh, this release also introduces subway tunnel generation, redesigned traffic lights and minor new elements.
