[1.16.1] Adding Custom Dimensions

[Eilux]

I intend to create a mod that includes multiple custom dimensions. However, I don't know how to add new dimensions. If anyone has some guidance on the subject it would be appreciated.

They are now data driven. You should look into how json works.

So there is no way to hardcode dimensions anymore? It's been completely replaced with .json? And is this the same with biomes and other generation features? (The source you linked implied so).

As of 1.16.1, dimensions were replaced with jsons. 1.16.2 also made that true for biomes. Other generations such as features are still handled in game code for good reasons; however, objects that just hold information can be stored in a json, hence the change.
