Giant Caves
Overview
Giant Caves is a bukkit mod that creates giant underground caves in the world. The caves are generated using Perlin noise seeded by the world seed. Caves are unique to each world.
Giant Caves is implemented as a bukkit block populator and is compatible with the vanilla world generator and most likely any world generation plugin that implements the chunk generator pattern. Giant Caves also comes with a vanilla generator for use with Multiverse.
Works best with Subterranea
See it in Action!
Here is a great overview video in German and one in Portuguese
Installation
I don't have Multiverse or another world manager
- Stop the server if it is running!
- Download the plugin and put it into your plugins folder.
- Start your Server to make the plugin generate default world configuration files for known worlds.
- Set onlyUseWorldManagers to false in config.yml
- Edit the configuration file to match your needs. (See Help Topics > Configuration for more info.)
- Restart your server.

-drool- can't wait. Thanks!@Crysillion
1.7.2 support has been implemented. Awaiting approval.
I can confirm that this plugin is not working with 1.7.2. It crashes the server and I am unable to log in whenever the plugin is present.
It does not work with devbuild craftbukkit 1.7.2 with Multiworld. Neither does Subtereania.

So does it work? Can I get screenshots? I'd love to see what you are building.
At first i was kinda like, ehhh, idk if it will work, cuz i have a BigDig server, and then he was like, UNDERGROUND CIVILIZATIONS, and i was like: WHO CARES IF IT CRASHES, WORTH A SHOT! xD i love building, and caving, so.... BEST PLUGIN EVER (:
@deltahat
Yeah, it was huge! :D Its safe to say i've put this on my private server with my friends on along with the toxic skies and subterranea plugin, its sick! Thanks Man!
@Wukkit
I love the video. Thanks for making it! Did you get a chance to fully explore the cave you found?
Hey man, you're plugin is just amazing. The caves were alot bigger than I expected! :D I did a review if you'd like to showcase it! The review also covers the Subterrainea plugin also by you! Here's a link - https:www.youtube.com/watch?v=g85OCBgt21E Best of luck, and keep up the great work!
@wesleyd0g

If you really want to find a cave, switch to an x-ray texture pack.
@biffick
You specify which world in the Giant Caves config.yml. Also you just mine or explore and you should find one in the world you specified in the config.
@tomaste
No. You tell which worlds to use in the Giant Caves config.yml. Also the giant caves just adds to the world, its not a whole generator, it just gens caves.
@tomaste
You have to tell Giant Caves which worlds to attach to using its config.yml file.

is there a flag to use with multiverse? example:
/mv create moleman normal -g GiantCaves
Something like that?
Hello. 1.How find these Caves?)))) 2.The caves generate in "standatd world"? Or i'm need install "MultiWorld"?
...sorry...for my bad English :)
@Xaymar
I fixed it.
@CommodoreAlpha
Um, where does it say that? :s
Why does the latest file say "subterranea"?
