Immersive Freezing 🥶
by qb20nh
Immersive Freezing, a client-side Fabric mod by qb20nh, makes powder snow feel more intense through camera shake, hand tremble, frost vignette, optional whiteout and ice-crack sound.
What it does
Freezing in powder snow is shown through several cosmetic layers. The camera shakes in first person with a strength that grows as the player becomes more frozen, the held item or arm trembles slightly, a frost overlay fades in and out when entering or leaving freezing conditions, and a short ice-crack sound plays when freezing starts and fades out as the player thaws. An optional screen whiteout ramps up with the freeze.
The mod is configurable and can be opened from the Mods list when Mod Menu is installed. Immersive Freezing needs Fabric Loader and Fabric API for Minecraft 1.21.11. It runs on the client alone, so players install it and servers need nothing; the changes are cosmetic and do not alter gameplay mechanics. The license is MIT, and the source code and issue tracker are public. The first file was published on 2025-12-18 and the latest, 1.0.0 for 1.21.11, on 2025-12-22.
