Switch Between 2D and 3D Cloud Rendering
Finding the Cloud Type Option
Open the Cloud Tweaks configuration menu. Look for a setting labeled "Cloud Type," "Cloud Mode," or "3D Clouds."
Comparing Your Options
2D Clouds: Flat, traditional Minecraft appearance. Renders faster and uses fewer resources.
3D Clouds: Volumetric, detailed cloud formations with depth and shadow. More visually impressive but more demanding on performance.
Making Your Selection
Toggle between the two options and save your configuration. Restart your game or reload chunks to see the change take effect.
Performance Consideration
If you experience frame rate drops after switching to 3D clouds, you may need to adjust render distance or disable other visual enhancements. The mod typically provides additional quality settings to balance appearance with performance.
