Altitudes of Frost

by Kokotma

Altitudes of Frost is a Fabric world generation tweak for 26.2 that moves the point where snow starts, leaving green high ground in non-snowy biomes.

What it does

The mod raises the altitude at which snow begins, so high forests and hills in biomes that are not snowy keep their green cover instead of turning white. Snow still appears in snowy biomes as usual, and the change applies only to the non-snowy ones. Changing the snow height limit for those biomes alone means high hills no longer show snow where they would not in vanilla terrain.

The tweak is small and touches only the temperature calculation that decides where snow falls. It does not add new biomes, structures or blocks, which is why it works alongside world generation mods and datapacks such as Terralith and Tectonic. A server running the mod keeps those biome packs intact while the snow line sits higher in grassy regions.

Altitudes of Frost is published for Fabric only, for game version 26.2, and its first file was released on 2026-07-24. Server owners install it, and players connect with no copy of their own. The code is released under the MIT License, but the project is not open source.

Key features

  1. Higher snow line

    Raises the altitude at which snow begins, so non-snowy biomes stay green at high elevations.

  2. Snow limited to snowy biomes

    The snow height change is applied only to non-snowy biomes, leaving snowy biomes unchanged.

  3. Clean high forests

    Forests and grassy areas generated up high keep their colors without a dusting of snow.

  4. Minimal temperature change

    Only the temperature math that sets the snow line is adjusted, with no new biomes or blocks added.

Does the server need the mod, or do players?

Players join without it, since only the server has to run the mod.

Will it work with Terralith or Tectonic?

Yes. The mod does not add biomes, so it is compatible with world generation mods and datapacks such as Terralith and Tectonic.
