About this Mod

The purpose of this mod is solely to fix a very specific Minecraft bug (https://bugs.mojang.com/browse/MC-186626). I needed the ability to assign dimensionally-specific weather conditions for a different mod I'm working on called Immersive Backrooms, but I figured I'd put it out here as a stand-alone mod in case other people need this feature as well and can't wait for Mojang to fix it.

Fabric dependencies: Fabric API

Quilt dependencies: Quilted Fabric API

Forge dependencies: nothing, I think

Note that only versions 1.1 and above support Quilt cross-compatibility.

25 May 2026 addendum: Support for 1.20.1 Forge has also been added.

Important note: At the moment, this mod only works for standard vanilla weather cycles including rain, thunder, and clear. Additionally, this only works for dimensions that have weather in the first place. Setting has_skylight to false or has_ceiling to true in the relevant dimension type JSON file disables vanilla weather entirely, rendering this mod ineffective. In other words, your dimension of interest must have a vanilla weather cycle in the first place in order for this to work. See https://minecraft.wiki/w/Dimension_type for details.

Frequently Asked Questions

Dimensional Weather server crashes on startup – what to do?

Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.

Is Dimensional Weather compatible with fabric and forge and quilt?

Dimensional Weather officially supports fabric, forge, quilt for Minecraft 1.20.4, 1.20.1. Note: Forge and Fabric mods are NOT cross-compatible – pick one loader and stick with it. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.

Server lagging with Dimensional Weather – how to optimize performance?

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Dimensional Weather consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge.
