About this Mod

Woodlands: The Core (Vanilla) changes some aspects of a worldgen, like trees, flowers, ground cover etc, using only vanilla blocks and vanilla biome distribution.

This project ia also a part of Woodlands:Extra, if you're interested in custom biomes (that use only vanilla blocks as well!) you can check it up! Don't install both!

Dependencies:

  •  Oh The Trees You'll Grow by Corgi_Taco
  •  Optional: any "Treecapitator"-like mod to chop down trees with non-decying leaves. Suggested: TreeChop, Tree Harvester, Pandas Falling Trees. Will require some changes to the configs to chop down persistent(non-decaying) leaves and make tree searching radius a bit bigger.

Compatible with Fabric! Just install Fabric Api 

Compatible with NeoForge! (>= v.1.21.1)

Incompatible (most datapack-based worldgen/biome mods)

P.S. Note that many of these could be made partially compatible if you'll make many changes to both Woodlands and them, but there will be no oficial compatibility ever.

Woodlands:The Core officially supports fabric, forge, neoforge for Minecraft 1.21.1, 1.20.1. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Woodlands:The Core – how to optimize performance?
