Underground Biomes Mod for 1.5.2 and 1.4.7

Description:

• Overhauls the underground experience with Underground Biomes that define the rock types and ores present.
  
• These biomes occur differently to the surface biomes making exploration underground more interesting.
  
• Adds 57 new blocks using 12 block IDs and 1 new item (so far):
  
  • 8 types of Igneous rock with Cobblestone and Bricks.
    
  • 8 types of Metamorphic rock with Cobblestone and Bricks.
    
  • Half slabs for all Brick types
    
  • 8 types of sedimentary rock.
    
  • A coal storage block
    
  • Lignite, a low quality coal found in large quantities
• All Vanilla recipes updated to use new rock, cobble and brick types.

Change Log:

Spoiler:

0.3.6

Update to support Minecraft 1.5.2

Also added 1.4.7 support for those who have not yet updated.

Fixed issues with Stone Brick Slabs

0.3.5

Added four new Biomes featuring Vanilla Stone due to popular demand.

Bug Fixes:

• Fixed (hopefully) the bug where the only stone type that generated was Red Granite.
  
• Added missing Explosion Resistance values for all blocks.
  
• Fixed a texture lookup bug which could cause a crash.
  
• Fixed an error in the Blue Schist texture.
  
• Fixed an bug which was causing biome shapes to be back to front for each Chunk.
  
• Corrected Ore Dictionary Names and added individual Ore Dictionary names for each Stone and associated blocks.

0.3.4a

Fixed world generation bug.

0.3.4

Update to Minecraft 1.5.1

Finally...

0.3.3

Added a new system to 'Ore Dictify' recipes

• Scans through all the loaded recipes and detects when a recipe uses cobblestone or stone and automatically replaces the recipes with an ore dictionary compatible version allowing the cobblestone and stone from this mod to be used in the recipe.
  
• I have tested it with a large number of mods and there has been no problems. I can't test everything though so there is a config option to disable this if you encounter bugs. If you do have any problems please let me know.
  
• Note: This will only work with recipes that work using the vanilla system. This generally means recipes that can be made on a crafting table. Recipe systems added by other mods are outside of my control.

Bug fixes:

• Fixed crash on first time world creation when using mods that added new dimensions such as the Twilight Forest.
  
• Fixed stone half slabs placed on the upper half of a space dropping the incorrect block
  
• Corrected the burn time of Anthracite Coal

0.3.2a

• Added half slabs for all stone bricks.
  
• Replaced some textures and improved brick and cobble textures using some methods Dudewiththemine showed me
  
• Added config option for Biome Size. The default value is 45 which is quite small. Values of between 45 and 100 had good results. This value appears to be exponential so be careful. A value of 150 make the biomes so large that I could not leave the spawn biome in about 2 minutes of flying.
  
• Fixed the texture bug! All thanks to konekobus!

0.3.1

Fixed an bug which prevented other mods generating vanilla ores.Tested against Minecraft 1.4.7

0.3

Removed all modifications to base classes. Should now work with everythingOre veins is currently bugged and is disabled by default. You can use it but it will still generate those ores normally as well as in veins.

0.2

Improved compatibility.

• Added compatibility mode. On by default
  
• Changed block IDs
  
• Added config options to change block and item IDs
  
• New texture for soapstone

0.1

Updated to Minecraft 1.4.6

• Added different hardnesses for rocks based on what they are. Some rocks will be harder than normal stone while some will be weaker.
  
• Fixed stone bricks dropping cobblestone.

Detailed Description:

Spoiler:

I've always thought that there isn't enough variation underground in Minecraft with almost every cave or ravine looking the same. This mod aims to change that by adding 24 new naturally occuring rock types which occur in underground 'biomes' separate to the biomes on the surface. Ore distribution for Coal, Iron, and Gold has been changed to make these occur in larger desposits in certain areas to promote exploration and actual mines.The rock types added comprise three base categories: Igneous, Metamorphic, and Sedimentary. Igneous and Metamorphic rocks form the base of underground biomes with Sedimentary rocks being found in layers called strata. Igneous and Metamorphic rocks drop their own forms of cobblestone when mined and can also be crafted into bricks. A storage block for coal has also been added as well as a very low quality coal called lignite. Both can be used for smelting.All recipes from the base game have been incorporated with the new rocks types so for example a lever can be crafted with a stick and a metamorphic cobblestone block. Vanilla cobblestone can also be crafted by placing two rows of two cobblestone blocks. This is to support other mods whose recipes might need regular cobble.This is the first version of the mod and may contain bugs but I have fixed all the issues that came up during development that I know of. The new ore system could potentially be unbalanced (too easy or too hard) but is quite hard to test. If this is an issue there is a config option to disable the custom ore generation.In the near future I plan to add half slabs for most of the rock types as well as a system for adding new underground features similar to surface features such as temples and villages. I'm happy to hear any ideas anyone has for featues or anything else.

This mod works for both single and multiplayer.

Spoiler:

Sedimentary Rocks:These rocks mainly occur in layers called strata. They cannot currently be made into bricks or cobblestone. They are (from left to right): Limestone, Chalk, Shale, Siltstone, Lignite, Flint, Greywacke, and Chert.
Igneous Rocks:These volcanic rocks can be found in large quantities and make up most of the rock found in certain areas. They drop igneous cobblestone when mined. They can be crafted into bricks and slabs. They are (from left to right): Red Granite, Black Granite, Rhyolite, Andesite, Gabbro, Basalt, Komatiite, and Epidote.Metamorphic Rocks:These rocks are formed by heat and pressure underground and make up the rest of the landscape where igneous rocks do not occur. They drop metamorphic cobblestone when mined and can be crafted into bricks and slabs. They are (from left to right): Gneiss, Eclogite, Marble, Quartzite, Blue Schist, Green Schist, Soapstone, and Migmatite.Anthracite and Lignite:Anthracite is a very pure form of coal. It can be made by crafting four peices of coal and burns for 32 items. Lignite is an item dropped from lignite rock. It is a very impure form of coal and burns for 1 item in a furnace. It can be found in large deposits.More images:

Compatible Mods:

Spoiler:

I have redesigned the generation process for the latest version so that it should be compatible with other world gen mods. I have tested it with the Feed the Beast modpack and everything works as it should. If you are using another ore gen mod you should disable custom ore veins in the config.Block IDs may need to be changed in the config file for this mod to work with other mods

Installation:

Spoiler:

These instructions are to install the Underground Biomes mod for Minecraft 1.5.1. This requires the latest version of Minecraft Forge. If you already have the Minecraft Forge installed go to 3.1.  Install the latest version of Minecraft Forge from http://www.minecraftforge.net/forum/2. Once Forge is installed run Minecraft once to make sure it has worked and to set up the necessary folders.3. Put the contents of the 'Add contents to mods folder' folder into your mods folder in the minecraft directory. If there is no mods folder then Forge might not have installed correctly.4. Run Minecraft. If Minecraft loads and the mod shows up when you click the mods button in the main menu then it has worked.Config:You can edit the mod config file if you want by going to the config folder in your minecraft directory and opening 'UndergroundBiomes.cfg'with Notepad or any other text editor. You can set all the block and item IDs for the mod here to fix any conflicts that may occur with other mods.

Source:All source code is now available on Github. Feel free to fork!

This is sweet!  I was wondering when something like this would show up!  If there was a way to have different ore blocks for each new stone type, I will download this in a heartbeat.

[Steelflame]

Nice, but if I was you, I would also provide HD textures on top of your low res ones.  This is so people using texturepacks don't feel messed up by the low res stone though most of their underworld.

Compatible with Extrabiomes XL?

[Murayama]

This is something I've been hoping to see more of in Minecraft. Ever since I tried Terrafirmacraft I've hoped someone would make a mod that introduced a similar geology but that it would still play nice with other mods.

Your mod seems to modify a lot of base classes, which makes me worry that it's also not going to play nice with other mods. Is this really necessary? Is it a byproduct of modifying vanilla recipes? Personally, I'd much rather you just implement recipes where 2 of your stones in a crafting grid give you 2 generic cobblestone. This would solve the problem of unique stone not being in current vanilla recipes.

I'm also curious if the stone has different hardness (and blast resistances) that line up (roughly) with their hardnesses in real life.

This is something that I'm hoping to do but I'm not quite sure how to do it without changing a lot of core Minecraft files and potentially making this incompatible with a lot of other mods. If anyone knows of a good way of combining two textures on one block I'd like to hear it!

I would quite like to do this as I think it would make it a lot better. I found it pretty hard to make 24 rock textures that actually looked different enough with such a small resolution. I can provide the .psd for anyone that wanted to give it a go as I probably wont be able to for a while.

I haven't tested it yet but it should be as I haven't changed any of the base biome stuff as far as I know

The base classes that had to be modifed were mainly around world generation to force the game to do a second round of block replacements. As far as I know there isn't any way around this at the moment. I think it should work fine with most other mods as I changed hardly any of the base stuff in those clases but rather added new stuff. There is just a few key lines that I had to add to base methods.

There is a recipe like you describe! It's like a crafting table but with mod cobble and gives vanilla cobble back.

I'm planning on having different hardnesses etc soon but it will probably take a bit of research and I've just started working full time. But yep that's definitely the plan

[pinkiepiestyle]

is the normal cobblestone available? also very nice mod

[Exterminator Jeff]

You can convert the cobble from the mod in normal cobblestone. The recipe is like the crafting table recipe except with cobblestone and gives you four normal cobblestone.

[pinkiepiestyle]

oh ok sweet this is simple but very nice

[NuggetFace]

Thought I would make a mod review, the mod ran really well and I had no issues with it.

[thrandisher]

Very nice! Ill let ya get a bit more work into it before i grab it, mostly because i just got my install stable, heh.  I am wondering how this will play with the cave generation mod. SInce that mod basicly makes you start out underground and live down there.

[GreenToast 125]

Love the mod! However, would there possibly be any way to make subtypes for all the ores so they don't look so hideous with the other rock that their with?

As I guess I'd say it should work fine provided the cave generation mod doesn't change the same vanilla classes that this does. When I get time I'll try it out with a bunch of popular mods and try and fix as many incompatibilities as I can.

[Luckbot]

your download link on the forge forum doesn't work (i.. i.. *shiver* i had to use google to find this)

nice mod! gonna try it out when i'm home

i guess it doesnt effect the spawning of IC² ores and BC oil?

wouldn't that work with a small texture pack that replaces the ores? see no reason why not

edit: behaves strange it spams the console with [STDERR] Error!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
and industrialcraft ores spawm mid air and everywhere above ocean biomes
wich forge build is recommendet?

Thanks for letting me know I suspect that has to do with the ore placement method which I had to adapt to have them replace the new rocks instead of plain stone. It's strange though as I would have expected no new ores to spawn if there was a problem there. Are you using just IC2 and BC or a larger pack?

That error message is something I forgot to take out and is not a problem at all. It should only happen when first starting a new map and has to do with a strange bug that came up when trying to place strongholds. I didn't changed any of the code where the bug was occurring but I managed to work around it so strongholds do generate just fine.

It was built against forge 6.4.

On the issue of textures I could go that route but I'd have to make textures for each of the 7 ores for 16 types of rock resulting in 112 new textures. I suppose I could go a bit further with certain ores only being in certain biomes and then only make the textures for those ones. The next issue would be whether they dropped the normal ore when mined (when applicable) or the newly textured ore as if it dropped the new one it could mess with other mods recipes that might require that ore.

LOVE this!

's for you!

Could you add support for Mystcraft? so your underground biomes can be added as glyphs?

[Exterminator Jeff]

I could have a look at that. The only issue would be currently they don't have meaningful names and it would be hard to actually think of good ones. Right now they have names like igneous1 etc. I guess I could think of something though.

--- END ERROR REPORT 7bb9e40d ----------

I think from the log file it is a conflict with ExtrabiomesXL-universal-1.4.5-3.6.0...

Thanks for the log I'll have a look at that. It might be to do with the order the mods were installed in. Which did you install first? I'll download extrabiomes and see if I can fix it

Finally got a chance to test this mod out and I have to say that I really enjoy the rock generation. Instead of stacks and stacks of generic boring cobblestone I can now have many different types of stone which can be used for decoration purposes. I also really like that you use the actual geological names for the stone.

That said, I've found several problems with the mod which keep me from wanting to use it.

1. I'll start with a small one. Stone bricks drop Stone cobble when destroyed. I'm sure this is just an oversight which can easily be fixed.
2. What is up with the [STDERR] message that gets spammed on the console when you quit a world? A couple times it seems to have caused Minecraft to lock up on me.
3. This mod is incompatible with Better World Generation 3 which has become my default world generation mod. Whenever you start a new world with both loaded you spawn in mid air and there is no world.
4. This mod doesn't work right with IC2. IC2 ores spawn all about the world in mid air.
5. This mod doesn't work right with Custom Ore Generation which is my default ore generation mod. Basically generic smooth stone shows up where ores typically would.
6. This is more of a request. I'd love to see soft stones like chalk and marble be a little easier to mine and offer less blast resistance while harder stones like granite and basalt be a little harder to mine and offer more blast resistance. Basically something similar to the Moh's scale of hardness. (http://en.wikipedia....ineral_hardness)

Now I've only tried 3 of the 40 plus mods I usually run, and none of them have worked correctly. It doesn't seem like there should be this many problems for something that simply replaces stone so I'm guessing part of the problem is with the ore generation aspect of your mod. I'm hoping you'll consider scaling it back or maybe making a simple version of the mod that replaces generic stone with your stones but doesn't touch ore gen. Until then I doubt many people will be interested in using it. That would be a shame because it really is a great addition to Minecraft and I'm pulling for it to succeed.
