Forcing Standard Vanilla Tree Growth in Custom Biomes

Overriding Custom Tree Shapes

In biomes supported by Custom Biome Saplings Mod, placing a matching vanilla sapling automatically causes it to grow into the mod's custom tree shape. However, if you are building, farming wood in confined spaces, or simply want a standard Minecraft tree shape instead, you can manually override this behavior.

Sneak-Placing the Sapling

You can force any sapling to grow into its standard vanilla form by using the sneak mechanic:

1. Equip the vanilla sapling in your main hand.

2. Press and hold your crouch (sneak) key.

3. While continuing to crouch, place the sapling onto the ground.

4. Observe the sapling upon placement. Because you were crouching, no white particles will appear.

5. Release your crouch key and let the sapling grow naturally or apply bone meal.

Because the custom shape was bypassed during placement, the sapling will ignore the custom biome settings and grow strictly into its default, vanilla Minecraft tree shape.
