Biome Support
=============
Minecraft Overviewer has support for using the biome info from the `Minecraft
Biome Extractor`_. If you run the biome extractor on your world, during the
next run Overviewer will automatically recognize the biome info and use it to
colorize your grass and leaves appropriately. This will only appear on updated
chunks, though; to colorize the entire world you will need to re-render from
scratch by using :option:`--forcerender`
.. note::
as of Minecraft 1.8, you currently need to use a patched Biome Extractor
that can be found `here
