Cull Less Leaves Mod is a reworked and improved version of the Cull Leaves mod, offering 9% better performance. It optimizes foliage rendering by preventing the game from calculating leaf blocks that are hidden behind other leaf blocks. This significantly reduces the load on the computer and helps boost FPS. The mod includes multiple operation modes. In the most performance-efficient mode, leaves become much more transparent-only one layer of leaves is rendered and processed. However, there is also a more realistic option for players who prefer a natural look.
