📋 About This Mod

# Retro Caves Do you want that old cave nostalgia? Don't like the weird caves added in 1.18? Well you're in luck, this datapack removes them! There are still the new 1.18 cave biomes and ores, but none of the gigantic, large noise caves from 1.18. This datapack works with the Large Biomes and Amplified Presets as well. ## Compatibility Notes: This is not compatible with anything that changes the terrain, like (https://modrinth.com/datapack/tectonic), as noise caves and terrain are defined in the same place. This means that this only intended for the default generation. Additionally, anything that creates its own carver caves will not have those caves removed. ## "I wish I could remove all caves, not just change them..." ### <u>Check out (https://modrinth.com/datapack/no-caves)</u>
