Autumn’s Realistic Clouds Resource Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need Protomanly's Weather Mod for this resource pack to work?
Yes, this resource pack is designed specifically to reskin weather events from Protomanly's Weather Mod, so you must have that mod installed first for the realistic clouds to appear.
Will this pack make my game lag or reduce FPS?
No, the realistic clouds run at the same frame rate as the base Weather Mod since they use optimized textures rather than adding new processing demands.
How do I see the different storm types with the new cloud visuals?
Simply play normally with the mod installed and wait for weather events to occur, or use commands to trigger specific storms like supercells, squalls, cyclones, and tornadoes to see their updated appearances.
Do the clouds look different at night versus during the day?
Yes, the pack includes time-of-day variations so storm clouds appear with different lighting and colors during sunrise, sunset, day, and night for a more realistic effect.
Can I use this with other resource packs?
This pack specifically retextures elements from Protomanly's Weather Mod, so compatibility depends on whether other packs modify the same cloud or weather textures—test by loading them together to check for conflicts.
What's the difference between vanilla clouds and the realistic clouds in this pack?
Vanilla clouds are flat and blocky, while this pack gives them wispy, layered shapes that resemble real-world cloud formations with natural gradients and depth.
Do tornadoes look different with this pack?
Yes, tornadoes receive extra visual details and a more realistic appearance compared to the base mod's tornado visuals.
Will this work with Fabric and Forge versions of the Weather Mod?
Resource packs are generally compatible with both loaders as long as you're using the matching version of Protomanly's Weather Mod, but verify compatibility with your specific mod setup.
How do I know if the pack is actually loaded and working?
Load into a world and wait for or trigger a weather event—if you see detailed, wispy cloud formations instead of the default blocky clouds, the pack is working correctly.
Can I customize which storm types get the realistic cloud treatment?
This resource pack applies the realistic visuals to all supported weather events from the base mod; customization would require editing the pack's texture files directly.
