A mod this large does not port cleanly overnight — expect bugs. If you hit one, please tell me: every report genuinely helps, and I'm actively working on this and will address every issue as quickly as I can.
✨ What This Is ✨
Alex's Caves is a massive content mod that transforms the underground into a set of strange, themed cave worlds — each with its own creatures, blocks, bosses, and secrets. This project is a full port of Alex's Caves to Minecraft 26.2, rebuilt as a multiloader mod so it runs on both NeoForge and Fabric.
All of the original mod's design, art, and creativity belong to its creator — see the Credits below. This page is for the 26.2 port only.
🌟 Features 🌟
- 🌈 Six themed cave biomes — Magnetic Caves, Primordial Caves, Toxic Caves, Abyssal Chasm, Forlorn Hollows, and the Candy Cavity
- 🦕 Dozens of unique creatures — dinosaurs, deep-sea horrors, magnetic machines, gummy critters, and stranger things still
- 👑 Enormous bosses to hunt down (and be hunted by)
- ⛏️ Hundreds of new blocks, items, and building materials
- 🧪 New tools, weapons, potions, and mechanics tied to each biome
- 🔀 Multiloader — one mod, playable on NeoForge and Fabric for 26.2
- 📚 Powered by Citadel (required library)
📖 How To Install 📖
- Install Minecraft 26.2 with either NeoForge or Fabric.
- Drop Alex's Caves in your mods folder. (On Fabric, also add Fabric API.)
- Generate a new world and start digging. The caves are waiting.
This Alex's Caves bundles Citadel, so make sure the Citadel jar is not installed alongside it.
❓ FAQ ❓
Q: Is this the official version of Alex's Caves?
A: No — this is an unofficial community port to 26.2. All credit for the original mod goes to its creator (see Credits). I'm just carrying it forward to a new version.
Q: I found a bug / it crashed!
A: Very possible — this is a large port still in active development. Please report it with your logs. I read every report and I'm patching issues quickly.
Q: Do I need Citadel?
A: Yes, it's required. On Fabric you'll also need Fabric API. Make sure the Citadel build matches your loader (NeoForge vs Fabric).
Q: NeoForge or Fabric?
A: Both are supported on 26.2. Use whichever you prefer — just install the matching Citadel and (on Fabric) Fabric API.
Q: Can I use it in a modpack?
A: Please respect the original author's license and permissions for Alex's Caves — those still apply to this port.
