Overview

Cull Less Leaves is a lightweight client-side optimization mod that boosts frame rates around trees, jungles, and any dense foliage. It removes the hidden inner faces of leaf blocks — the quads buried inside a canopy that you can never actually see — so the game draws far fewer triangles in leaf-heavy areas.

Frequently asked questions

What does Cull Less Leaves actually do?

It stops the game from drawing hidden leaf block faces inside thick foliage that players cannot see. This reduces the number of triangles your computer has to render.

Will my forests look different after installing it?

No, the mod keeps the visual look of trees and foliage completely untouched. Forests still appear full and natural.

Can I use it on multiplayer servers?

Yes, it runs purely on the client side, so you can join any server without issues. The server does not need the mod installed.

Where will I notice the biggest frame rate boost?

The biggest gains come when walking through dense forests, jungles, and thick tree canopies. That is where the most hidden leaf faces are culled.
