Everlasting Winter

by PeteMC

Everlasting Winter keeps snow falling in chosen biomes, with snow layers that build up on the ground, trees and plants.

What it does

Snowfall is set per biome through a list of biome IDs, so only the chosen biomes receive it. The temperature of each biome can be overridden so that it is cold enough for snow to form. Once started, the snowing state stays continuous instead of ending with the weather cycle.

Snow builds up one layer at a time, up to a configurable maximum depth between 1 and 8 layers, and after the eighth layer a full snow block forms and stacking continues. Snow collects under trees rather than being blocked by leaves. Crops, short and tall grass, small and tall flowers and mushrooms are replaced by snow layers, and torches are replaced on the ground too, each individually configurable. Farmland and paths can also be broken, again per block type.

Everlasting Winter is for 1.20 – 1.21.1 and is published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge. Installation covers the server and each player's game. The code is under All rights reserved and is not open source.

Key features

  1. Custom biome selection

    A simple list of biome IDs decides exactly which biomes receive snowfall.

  2. Persistent snow

    The snowing state is kept continuous rather than stopping with the weather.

  3. Temperature override

    Biome temperatures can be adjusted so that they are cold enough for snow to form.

  4. Dynamic snow stacking

    Snow builds from 1 to 8 layers, then a full snow block forms and stacking goes on.
