About this Mod
Peaceful Snow
This is a micromod that prevents mob spawning while it is snowing. Mobs will still spawn in rainy regions and in caves. Mobs also won't spawn under trees while it is snowing. In general, a snowy nighttime should now be completely peaceful.
Compatibility
In technical terms, this mod only uses one injection so it shouldn't conflict with most mods, even mods that affect mob spawning. Mods that completely overwrite the spawning algorithm, however, may render this mod inoperable.
This mod is part of my micromod project, a collection of mods that tweak small aspects of Minecraft as non-invasively as possible.
