Description

Cave generation with SwissCaves

A simple and nostalgic 1.7.10 mod that restores pre-1.7.2 cave generation with Mixins. Relies on UniMixins, and works with many cave generation addons (for example, Et Futurum Requiem's stone variants and deepslate). Extremely unlikely to be compatible with mods that overwrite Vanilla cave functionality, as it simply changes constants in the cave generator class that were lowered after 1.7.2.

Additional credits:

  • anatevka - for creating the mod icon
  • TheMasterCaver - for decompiling and comparing the 1.6.4 caves to 1.7.10 caves, allowing me to figure out what to modify alot easier.
  • GTNH developers - for creating the 1.7.10 example mod/build script
