Leavesly

by iShikyoo

Leavesly makes leaves and some plants gather snow during snowstorms, with coverage that depends on how much sky and block light reaches them.

What it does

During a snowstorm, leaves slowly pick up snow. The effect also reaches some plants such as short grass, ferns, tall grass and large ferns, and the amount of coverage varies with exposure to skylight and blocklight, so shaded leaves look different from exposed ones. Jungle leaves carrying cocoa pods are handled as well, and the addon flowers, fruits and leaves are affected by snow too.

Leavesly is open source under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only, and its source code and issue tracker are public. It needs Fabric API and runs on both client and server, so the server and every player need it. Files are published for Fabric and Quilt, covering 1.19.4 – 1.21.7 across 16 release versions, with 1.4.0+1.21.7 for 1.21.7 as the latest file.

Key features

  1. Gradual snow cover

    Leaves slowly accumulate snow as a snowstorm passes over them, rather than changing instantly.

  2. Plant coverage

    Short grass, ferns, tall grass and large ferns can be covered in snow along with the leaves.

  3. Light-based snow levels

    Coverage differs by exposure to skylight and blocklight, so sheltered blocks keep less snow.

  4. Customisable colors

    Snow coverage on leaves can be adjusted in color, and several of its visual details can be tweaked.
