Frequently asked questions

How do I know Ambient Environment Mod is actually working?
Walk between two different biomes and watch the grass, leaves, and water tint shift as you cross the border. If colors stay identical everywhere, the mod isn't applying, so check that it's enabled for your world.
Do I need to configure anything to get started?
No, the mod works out of the box once installed. Colors are applied automatically based on the biome you're standing in, so you can just load a world and explore.
Does this mod change how grass or water actually behaves?
No, it's purely cosmetic. Block behavior, growth, water physics, and all gameplay mechanics stay exactly the same as vanilla.
Why does the color change look sudden instead of smooth when I cross a biome?
Color transitions follow biome borders, so they can snap when the boundary is sharp. Blending depends on how the biome edges are generated in your world rather than a mod setting.
