Generating Massive Trees in New and Existing Worlds

Loading New Forest Chunks

Bigger Trees Mod adds its massive trees directly through world generation rather than growing existing trees larger over time. In a brand-new save, simply travel until you find any forested terrain to see the towering canopies immediately. If you added the mod to an existing world, the forests around your current base will remain unchanged because those chunks are already saved. Pack food, a bed, and a boat or horse, then travel past the edges of your previously explored map. Once the game generates fresh chunks, forested areas will populate with the denser, larger trees.

Exploring With Other Terrain Mods

Because the mod maintains a vanilla-friendly appearance and works alongside other mods that alter world generation, you do not need special setup steps to combine them—newly generated terrain will automatically feature the larger trees. However, massive canopies and dense forests put many more blocks on screen at once. Open Options > Video Settings and balance your Render Distance and Graphics setting (Fancy vs. Fast leaves) so you can see the full height of distant treelines while keeping smooth performance. Turning Clouds off in Video Settings also stops low cloud layers from cutting straight through the tops of tall mountain forests.
