Ummm...
Since you made the water fill large gaps in this mod, the sponges are useless, cause the water dissipearrs around the sponge, but then emediatly fills back up and covers the sponge!

an really good add on for this would be to add a tree that spawns once in every map make it a legit treehouse with goodies in it! that would be awesome!

That's a great idea. I'll add it to my list. Just note that I won't spend a lot of time working on this mod, so how much actually gets put into it depends on how much I can get done in the time I spend on it.

btw. It seems to make birch trees with dark wood? The leaves are birch but the logs are pine.

Do not care for the sponges. Perhaps make it an optional mod? Make a version with and one with out?

I'll look into the birch issue. The sponges will probably not be in the future BigTrees mod, but in a split-off GreatWood mod.

The sponges are still useful for cleaning up small pools of water, or taking a quick breath underwater... but, yes, they are underpowered now. I'll probably make them work like the old sponges in classic.

When will the next update for this come out? I am really eager to see the new forests like the Deadwood! Please update!!

[Ranoutofnames]

Also I hope that more forest biomes are add! I love this mod!!

Edit:Will some trees still contain coal? I sure hope so

[DeathTheKid57]

Greatest mod ever! I haven't updated because of this mod! Please update it !

[DeathTheKid57]

Please update this mod!! I am sure many others will want to play with it in 1.0.0!!

[Knubbis93]

hello, could you update the mod to 1.0.0? and add smp? would be very greatful for it

[Karob]

Thank you everybody! I hope to have the update out this month, but no guarantees. It will not feature new biomes, but will just place big trees in the current existing biomes. Though I do hope to make a mod that introduces new biomes and such.

I might not have coal in trees anymore since you can just smelt log blocks to make coal. Though it certainly takes a lot of wood to do that.

I do not plan to add SMP support... but if I get some extra free time, I may look into it.

Thanks again for the support!

So you are keeping the forest the same expect that coal will no longer be in trees? Awesome can't wait!

[Itrebur]

This mod has been updated to 1.0.0 now. See the original post for details and the download link.

This mod is AMAZING. The forest biome is exactly what I'm looking for.

I do have a few suggestions which I hope you'll take into account:

1. Please remove the gold and diamond blocks from within the big trees. It makes no sense and makes it way too easy to get them.

2. The spawning of big trees in the forest is perfect. However, they're a little too common in the swamp and desert in my opinion.

3. Not sure I like the sponges. They look a little out of place. Maybe if they were shaped more like a plant or extremely rare.

4. This may be unavoidable but I wish I could play this mod along with other terrain modification mods like the Mountain Gen Mod. http://www.minecraft...untains-better/

Great job though and hope you continue to tweak it.

[TheXzavier56]

Excellent!
Adds a lot more veriaty to the forests.

Maybe add some kind of super rare "mother tree"!

[zzxxii1337superShOtZiixxzz]

I am really liking this mod. Few things will make me start an entirely new world just to get some features. You sir, have made me do so!

This would be cool as long as it doesn't lag the game too much. I don't see much lag right now which is great!

Thanks!

Yes, I was actually going to do that for this release, but I forgot. It's on my list of things to do for the next release now.

Well, more people (including myself) would prefer the amount of big trees in the desert and the swamp to remain the same.

It has been suggested that I put the sponges at the bottom of the ocean.

That's been suggested before. It's on my list of ideas for future versions.
