Preserving Foliage Aesthetics While Optimizing Leaves

Checking Foliage Appearance

Players often worry that performance tweaks will compromise visual quality by making trees look thin, transparent, or unnatural. Cull Less Leaves is engineered to keep the visual look of trees and foliage completely untouched while optimizing geometry behind the scenes.

To verify tree aesthetics in your game:

1. Approach any cluster of trees or large custom canopy in your world.

2. Inspect the foliage from ground level and from above, looking at the outer leaves from various angles.

3. Look directly into the canopy layers to confirm that no visible exterior leaf faces are missing.

Comparing Visual Fullness

The mod only removes hidden inner leaf faces that are entirely obscured by neighboring leaf blocks. Exterior faces and exposed surfaces remain fully intact, ensuring that forests retain their dense, lush atmosphere. You receive the full aesthetic richness of thick canopies without the hardware drag associated with invisible internal geometry.
