How to Configure Rendered Leaf Layers
When exploring forested biomes, Minecraft normally spends processing power calculating hidden leaf blocks buried deep inside tree canopies. Cull Less Leaves skips rendering these unseen inner layers while letting you control how many outer layers remain visible.
Opening the Mod Configuration
1. Launch Minecraft and stay on the game main screen.
2. Click the Mods button provided by Mod Menu to view your active mods.
3. Select Cull Less Leaves from the list and open its configuration menu.
Choosing the Right Layer Amount
Inside the configuration screen, locate the setting that defines the custom amount of leaf layers to render.
- Lower the layer count if your frame rate drops around trees and you want your computer to skip calculating as many hidden leaf blocks as possible.
- Raise the layer count if tree canopies look too thin and you want to retain more inner foliage for a fuller, more natural appearance.
Save your changes before leaving the menu, then load into a world with birch, oak, or jungle trees. Press F3 to view your current FPS and inspect a tree canopy up close to verify that you have found the right balance between visual quality and smooth performance.
