Seasons & Scarcity
Seasons & Scarcity transforms your static Minecraft world into a living, breathing ecosystem with a dynamic, global four-season cycle. Every 7 in-game days, the environment shifts, forcing you to adapt your survival strategies, manage your crops, and prepare for the elements.
Designed with performance and player choice in mind, this mod is completely modular—focusing strictly on environmental changes without bloat—making it the perfect addition to vanilla-plus and survival modpacks.
Key Features
The 4-Season Cycle: Experience true seasonal progression (Spring, Summer, Autumn, Winter). Each season lasts 7 in-game days and globally affects the Overworld.
Dynamic Crop Mechanics: Your farming habits must change with the weather. Crops adapt to seasonal conditions, slowing down or entirely halting growth during the harsh winter months.
Environmental Shifts: Watch the world react as water sources freeze over in the winter, requiring you to rethink your water supplies and ice management.
Aesthetic Transformations: Biome foliage and grass subtly transition to reflect the time of year, from bright spring greens to deep autumn oranges.
🚀 Performance & Compatibility
100% Sodium Compatible: Built from the ground up to respect Sodium's heavy chunk-caching pipeline. Seasonal color transitions are deeply optimized, triggering a seamless, one-time chunk reload only during a seasonal shift to guarantee your high FPS remains untouched.
Pure Vanilla Friendly: Works flawlessly in fully vanilla environments without requiring any external rendering engines.
Fully Modular: This mod focuses entirely on seasons, weather, and scarcity.
