Snow Under Trees (Fabric)
by Deadly
Snow Under Trees adds snow that settles on the ground beneath trees in snowy biomes, a small change to how those areas look once a world is generated.
What it does
Snow Under Trees places a layer of snow under trees that grow in snowy biomes. The effect applies to chunks generated after the mod is installed, so terrain that already exists in a world keeps its previous look. The mod needs Fabric API, and Cloth Config provides the settings screen for the options it offers.
Two options control the behavior. One turns the biome feature off, which stops snow from being placed under trees in newly generated chunks. The other turns off snowing in the world, which keeps the snow from appearing under trees while it is falling. Both are set in the Cloth Config screen, and turning either one to false disables that part of the effect.
Snow Under Trees is released under the MIT License and is open source. The source code and issue tracker are public. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.16.5 and 1.17.1, and the latest file is 1.0.0 for 1.17.1, released on 2021-07-17. Either side can run it, and neither needs it, so installing it on one side is enough.
