A New Player's Introduction to Alex's Caves
This guide provides essential information for new players beginning their Alex's Caves adventure. Alex's Caves introduces six distinct cave biomes to the Overworld, each with unique blocks, items, mobs, and mechanics. These biomes are rare, making their discovery a significant event.
Finding Cave Biomes
To locate any of the new cave biomes, you must first find an Underground Cabin. These cabins are generated in specific regions of the Overworld. Within these cabins, you will discover loot barrels containing cave tablets and a
Cave Compendium. The
Cave Compendium serves as a guide for finding and exploring the biomes added by the mod.
Underground Cabin Generation: * Underground Cabins generate in areas marked as #alexscaves:has_underground_cabins. * The game attempts to place one cabin per 10x10 chunk region. * Each cabin will be at least 2 chunks away from any other cabin.
Cave Biome Overview
Each cave biome in Alex's Caves has its own distinct characteristics, including ambient particles, fog, brightness, and light color. It is recommended to experience this mod without shaders, as some shaders may negatively impact the unique visual appearance of these biomes.
