World of Lush Caves

by e3l3rno

World of Lush Caves replaces the normal cave generation of a world with caves that contain only lush cave biomes.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltServer required, client optionalGNU General Public License v3.0 only1.19 – 1.21.4

What it does

Installed on a server, the mod changes how caves are generated, so every underground area is a lush cave. It works as a Minecraft datapack and is published for Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, with files for 1.19 – 1.21.4. Only the server needs it, and clients can join without installing anything.

Key features

  1. Lush cave-only generation

    Underground generation produces only lush caves, with no standard cave types mixed in.

  2. Datapack-based worldgen

    The change replaces normal world generation through a datapack, so the server applies it without a separate mod loader setup.

  3. Bedrock landing spots

    Some caves place bedrock with air beneath it, giving a teleport target a player can land on.

What the author says

IMPORTANT: Click the world-type button until you see "generator.wolc", otherwise it WILL NOT WORK. This is a Minecraft Datapack that replaces the normal Minecraft worldgen with a lush cave-only worldgen. Sometimes you will spawn on Bedrock if there's no air beneath you to teleport you to.
