About this Mod
🌲About:
Geophilic Backport is a datapack that subtly improves the Pale Garden added from VanillaBackports with the improvements and details of Geophilic!
Here's a short list of the changes Geophilic Backport makes:
Tree stumps and fallen trees are backported.
Some Vanilla Trees from the original Pale Garden are backported.
Small bushes grow in the Pale Garden biomes.
Cobwebs appear around the trees of the Pale Garden.
Eyeblossoms somewhat more common.
If you are not convinced, then go and see the pictures — a picture is worth at least two words, maybe even more!
Maybe in the future I will bring more features from the newer versions to the 1.20.1 or add more compatibility with other mods,.
I hope you enjoy it!
