Cave Blooms
by BaldBro
Cave Blooms adds decoration blocks to vanilla caves on Forge for Minecraft 1.20.1, with the cave blocks placed by world generation.
What it does
Cave Blooms adds decoration blocks to the vanilla caves so that underground areas look different from one world to the next. The blocks are placed by world generation and do not change how vanilla caves are built. Datapacks can tune the count and placement of the added blocks, allowing more specific adjustments to where they appear. The mod runs on Forge for 1.20.1 only, and it needs to be installed on both the client and the server, since both sides must run it. It is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. Its first file came out on 2023-11-29 and the latest Forge file, 1.1.1, was published on 2026-02-21.

Decoration blocks added to Vanilla caves, they don't have special items as uses just yet but will have functionalities, such as brewing maybe. Datapacks can be used to tune up/down the count of specific placements, or more detailed/specific modifications.
