Enhanced Falling Trees

by addavriance

Enhanced Falling Trees changes how felled trees come down, letting them topple in a lifelike way when cut instead of vanishing.

What it does

When a player cuts a tree, the trunk and its leaves tip over and fall in a way that looks like a real fall, rather than disappearing at once. The mod is a fork of Panda's Falling Trees, and it adds visual and sound effects that play when a tree hits the ground. Trees supported by bamboo or cactus are handled too, and felled trees stay in place for a set time before they are removed.

The effects are configurable. Server owners and players can change how many particles appear, how long a fallen tree remains, and how fast trees fall. Particles of leaves appear along the trunk after a tree disappears, and several impact sounds play as the tree lands.

The physics is a simplified simulation of the fall, chosen to keep the cost low. Installation requires Cloth Config API on Fabric, Forge and NeoForge, with Cloth Config API Forge also needed on Forge. Mod Menu is optional and adds a settings screen. Every player and the server need a copy of the mod. Files cover 19 release versions, 1.20 – 26.2, and the code is under the MIT License, so it is open source.

Key features

  1. Lifelike tree falls

    Trees tip over and fall in a manner that resembles a real tree being cut down, not a sudden removal.

  2. Particle effects

    Leaf particles appear along the trunk as a felled tree disappears, adding a visual finish to each fall.

  3. Impact sounds

    Several sound variants accompany the moment a tree hits the ground, adding to the effect of each fall.

  4. Adjustable settings

    Particle count, the time a fallen tree remains, and the speed of the fall can all be changed in the config.

What the author says

Enhanced Falling Trees allows trees to fall realistically when cut down, however, the mod only slightly adds realism and has nothing to do with physics as such, it only simulates a fall for the sake of performance, simulating a falling tree.
