BetterGrassify

by UltimatChamp

BetterGrassify swaps the vanilla grass and snow textures for OptiFine's Fancy and Fast better grass rendering, on Fabric, Forge, NeoForge and Quilt.

FabricForgeNeoForgeQuiltClient-side onlyApache License 2.0Open source1.19.3 – 26.3

What it does

Grass blocks and the grass sides of dirt-covered blocks are redrawn with the Fancy and Fast better grass styles from OptiFine. Without running OptiFine, a player on the listed loaders can get that look from this mod instead.

Fabric API and Forgified Fabric API are required, and Cloth Config API and YetAnotherConfigLib (YACL) are optional. Conquest Reforged requires this mod. Client-side only, it is published for 1.19.3 – 26.3, with snapshot builds included, under the Apache License 2.0, which is open source.

Key features

  1. Fancy and Fast grass

    Two rendering styles recreate the grass looks found in OptiFine, selectable depending on how much detail a player wants.

  2. Snow and grass sides

    Snow-covered grass and the grass sides of dirt blocks follow the same rendering rules as the top surfaces.

  3. Textured dirt edges

    Dirt blocks with grass on top show a grass edge along their sides, drawn in the selected style for a consistent look across terrain.

Questions

Does BetterGrassify need Fabric API on Fabric?

Yes. Fabric API and Forgified Fabric API are both required dependencies, so both must be installed next to the mod.

Does BetterGrassify work on NeoForge?

Yes. Builds exist for NeoForge, with the latest file being 1.7.0+neoforge.1.21.1 for 1.21.1.

Does a server need this mod?

No. Installation is client-side only, so only the player's game needs the mod installed.

What the author says

OptiFine's Fancy and Fast better grass for Fabric and NeoForge*! While there are some older builds present for NeoForge, you should use Sinytra Connector instead to use the Fabric builds on NeoForge.
