Cull Leaves Mod improves the processing to make the game smoother, changing the way Optifine HD’s “Smart Leaves” works. It optimizes the vanilla processes of foliage generation, which significantly boosts the frame rate. It also has huge compatibility with other options that add new trees. Although it is only a tiny change, it is very quality, improving the game’s performance. This mod can also be compatible with many other Mods such as Sodium, Canvas, Terrestria, Traverse, BetterEnd, Croptopia, and Quark.
