Mod Overview
The Subaquatic mod is a comprehensive expansion that significantly enhances the underwater world of Minecraft version 1.12.2. It not only adds a vast amount of new oceanic content but also fixes numerous bugs from the original game.
Required Dependencies
For the mod to function properly, installation of Fluidlogged API (required) and AssetMover (required on client side) is necessary.
Fixed Bugs
The mod addresses the following issues from the original game:
- Incorrect particle display when running or falling on thin blocks
- Wrong sounds when walking on small blocks
- Incorrect particle position when using bone meal on grass blocks
- Water particles not matching biome colors
- Grass and mycelium not decaying underwater
Main Features
The mod adds all ocean biomes from the "Update Aquatic" update, including:
- Bubble columns working in any water
- Chest boats, crafting table boats, furnace boats
- Fish entities: regular fish, cod, salmon, pufferfish, tropical fish
- Glow lichen and hanging roots
- Generation of kelp, seagrass, sea pickles, and corals
- Mud and mud bricks
- New villager type - Marine Biologist with unique trades
- Realistic fishing that catches actual fish instead of items
- Smooth versions of various blocks
Additional Improvements
Among many small but important enhancements:
- Baby zombies burn in sunlight
- Beacon activation and deactivation sounds
- Improved bubble particles and sounds
- Atmospheric underwater sounds and C418 music
- Configurable water and fog colors for biomes
- Items and experience orbs float on water

Planned Additions
Future updates plan to add content from "The Wild Update":

Compatibility and Recommendations
For the best gaming experience, it's recommended to use the mod alongside Aqua Acrobatics. In case of texture issues due to AssetMover, CensoredASM can be installed.
The mod was originally created for the Ocean Modjam by 1.12.2 Modding Coalition. Porting to other versions is not planned.
