About this Mod
Snowy leaves that works for you, everywhere (especially servers).
Leaves will slowly fade into their snowy colors during snowfall comprable to the same feature found at Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. Timings ang transition conditions are fully configurable!
Soon for version 0.6.0 (currently in Beta):
- This mods modifies Minecraft core shaders.
This is to achieve smooth transition instead of the former reliance on the more demanding and clunky chunk rebuilds. - This mod will not work when Iris shaders is enabled.
A fallback render is being considered at the moment.

Compared to other snowy leaves mods, this one is fully client-side! You can join servers with no worries with things like registry mismatch and weird blocks that shouldn't be rendered there! Improvements through texture modifications allows leaves to reach true white at their fully frosted state instead of just gray leaves.

Does Visual Snowy Leaves need to be installed on the Minecraft server?
No. Modrinth marks Visual Snowy Leaves as unsupported on the server side. Install it only in your local Minecraft mods folder. Your server can remain unchanged unless the mod page lists an additional dependency.
Which version and loader does Visual Snowy Leaves require?
Use a file for fabric and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 26.1-snapshot-2, 26.1-snapshot-1, 1.21.11. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.
Visual Snowy Leaves is not working – what should I check?
First check the Minecraft version, loader version and required dependencies. Put the .jar file in your local .minecraft/mods folder and remove older duplicates. Because this mod is client-side, adding server RAM will not fix it.
