About this Mod
🕸️ About:
Silken Depths is a small datapack that brings the Infested Cave design of the new versions of Terralith with Pale Garden blocks from VanillaBackports!
Here's a short list of the changes makes:
- Blue Trees from the biome Moonlight Grove/Valley now use the Pale Oak Log.
- The Infested Caves now have a new design, with Pale Moss blocks around it and with some features that bring decoration, such as hanging moss and spider eggs.
- Added the #terralith:caves biome tag for quickly locating a cave biomes.
This is a small datapack that I made for my own project, so don't expect further updates.
I hope you enjoy it!
