Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

What is this mod?

This is a basic mod which adds configurable layered snowfall in snowy / cold biomes. Instead of just the single layer of snow when it snows this mod makes it so that the snow will stack. By default the snow will stack to a height of 3 layers.

Can I change the layer amount?

Inside the confg file you can change the layer amount from 1 to 8. You can also change the frequency at which the snow settles on top of itself creating layers. There is also a config option to say whether you want the snow to replace plants and flowers. This eliminates to small patches of greenery.

Can I use this in a modpack?

Of course!

I have a suggestion or something doesn't work!
