This means you can have any other texture pack along with this one; and still have the different colors! Some common biomes that will get their water affected are the following: Plains are lighter Forests are green Sunflower plains are golden Ice biomes are much lighter Warm oceans are teal Cold oceans are dark blue Extreme hills are purple / red (depending on their sub biome) Deserts are beaches have beige water Mesa / badlands have orange water
