What it does

Clear weather in this mod means cloudless skies. Overcast weather brings dark rain clouds without any actual rainfall, so the sky changes while the ground stays dry. Both states are dynamic, meaning the weather shifts over time rather than staying fixed for a whole session.

A weather forecast screen shows what conditions are expected over the next 20 minutes. It opens with the Right Shift key, which lets a player plan travel, building or farming around the coming sky. The mod overhauls the weather mechanics of the game, and it is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, as build 1.0.0 in the beta channel.

The server and every player need the mod installed. The author is makshalzev0810, and the code is All rights reserved and not open source. Snapshot builds are not published for this mod.

Key features

  1. Clear weather states

    Clear weather keeps the sky free of cloud cover while the weather system changes around it.

  2. Overcast without rain

    Overcast weather fills the sky with dark rain clouds but produces no rainfall at ground level.

  3. Twenty-minute forecast

    A forecast screen lists the weather expected over the next twenty minutes, opened with the Right Shift key.

  4. Dynamic weather changes

    Conditions shift over time, so the sky is not locked to one state for a whole play session.

Questions

Which loader does weather_plus need?

weather_plus is published for Forge only, for 1.20.1, so it cannot be installed on Fabric or NeoForge builds.

Does weather_plus need to be on the server?

Yes. A server running it needs every connecting player to have it too.

Does overcast weather make it rain?

No. Overcast weather adds dark rain clouds to the sky, but the mod produces no actual rainfall.

How far ahead does the forecast show?

The forecast screen covers the next 20 minutes and opens with the Right Shift key.
