Random spheres generating underground in server

In my server spheres are generating underground. I went to the logs to check it out and found this:

Is there a mod (e.g. Quark) creating these as part of world generation?

quark is installed but it has been on the server since the start and these structures only generated since yesterday. Other world gen mods it contains have is biomes o plenty and RWG but the server’s world generator is default.

Thanks for replying and all your help. But I figured out that the most plausible cause of the problem was changing biomes of plenty’s config to set all default worlds to be BOP. This was a problem because the world was already vanilla generated but now will generate differently because of the config which might have caused the weird generating blocks shown in the pictures.

I mentioned it because I had the same vast craters appearing in a single player test world, and it turned out to be a new (experimental) cave feature from Quark, that the server wasn’t using.

I didn’t install quake but I still got this

@Inscrutable Do you know how to disable the craters and underground spheres from Quark, kind mister?

All quark’s wgen settings should be in the default world options. Here’s a link to the (old) quark wiki page for it: quark
