Custom Biome Saplings Mod FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I grow a custom tree from a sapling?
Place a vanilla sapling in a supported custom biome—the sapling type should match the logs of the original tree. White particles will appear when you place it, indicating a custom tree will grow in its modded shape.
What saplings work with this mod?
Vanilla saplings work, and the specific sapling type depends on the wood type of the custom tree. For example, if a custom tree uses oak logs, use an oak sapling to regrow it in its custom shape.
Can I grow a normal vanilla tree in a custom biome?
Yes—hold sneak (crouch) while placing the sapling in a custom biome, and it will grow as a regular vanilla tree instead of the custom shape.
Why isn't my sapling growing into a custom tree?
Make sure you're in a supported custom biome from Terralith or Blooming Biosphere, and that you're using the correct sapling type for that tree's wood. If you're sneaking while placing it, the mod will force vanilla growth instead.
Do I need to be in a specific biome for custom trees to grow?
Yes, the sapling must be placed inside a custom biome from Terralith or Blooming Biosphere for the mod to recognize it and grow the custom shape.
How do I collect saplings from custom trees?
Break the leaves of custom trees like you would vanilla trees—saplings will drop naturally. The sapling type depends on the tree's wood type, just like vanilla.
Does this mod work with other tree mods?
This mod is specifically designed for Terralith and Blooming Biosphere. It may not work with trees from other mods unless they use the same biome and sapling system.
What if I place a sapling outside a custom biome?
The sapling will grow as a normal vanilla tree, since the mod only activates custom growth when you're inside a supported custom biome.
Can I control which custom tree shape grows?
The mod automatically generates the custom tree shape based on the biome and sapling type—you cannot manually select a specific variant, but the shape will match what naturally spawns in that biome.
Will this mod affect my world's performance?
The mod only processes saplings when they're placed in custom biomes, so performance impact should be minimal and only noticeable during tree growth.
