Caveworld Flora Unleashed

I am taking over this project from Fluffysminion with her permission as she is not really modding at the moment. Re-uploading allows me to push updates without needing to involve her.




This mod adds a whole host of fungi to caves, which can provide food, medicine, beauty... or they might just be a nuisance. Glowing mushrooms will light up the dark places of the Rim, and can be cultivated to perform most of the functions of sun-loving green plants. You'll never need to see the sky again.

Caveworld Flora Unleashed is originally by Rikiki and has passed through a number of hands at this point. Other versions include:

• the original by Rikiki (v0.17)
  
• maintained version by Mlie, using the original graphics (v1.1-1.5)
  
• retexture and update by Fluffysminion (v1.2-1.4)
  
• Biomes! Caverns includes a version, using the Fluffysminion graphics

For an (incomplete) analysis of the differences between these mods, see discussion thread here.

If you have Biomes! Caverns you do not need this mod, and I would not recommend trying to run both at once.
