Frequently asked questions

How do I know if a tree is a dense tree?
Dense trees look identical to regular vanilla trees, but they emit special particle effects from their logs when you're near them or when you break them. If you see particles coming from a tree's wood, it's a dense tree.
Do Dense Trees spawn in all biomes?
Dense trees spawn naturally in forest biomes by default, but you can control which biomes they appear in using the biomeBlacklist config option to exclude specific biomes.
Why am I not finding any Dense Trees?
Dense trees only spawn in forest biomes naturally, so make sure you're exploring the right terrain. If you've already explored and found none, check your config file to ensure dense tree generation isn't disabled or blacklisted for your biome.
Can I grow Dense Trees from saplings?
Yes, if you enable the enableSaplingToDenseTree config option, saplings have a chance to grow into dense trees based on the saplingToDenseTreeChance percentage you set (0-100%).
How many more logs do Dense Trees give compared to regular trees?
Dense trees typically yield double or more planks per log than regular trees, but the exact amount depends on your mod config settings, so check your config file for the specific multiplier.
Do Dense Trees drop anything special besides extra logs?
Dense trees only yield more logs and planks than regular trees—they don't drop any unique items or blocks, just standard wood and saplings.
Can I turn off Dense Trees completely?
Yes, you can disable dense tree spawning entirely through the config file, or use the biomeBlacklist to prevent them from spawning in specific biomes while keeping them in others.
Do Dense Trees affect performance or lag?
Dense trees have minimal performance impact since they're just variants of vanilla trees with particle effects; if you experience lag, you can reduce particle frequency or disable the mod's features through config options.
Will Dense Trees work with other tree mods?
Dense Trees Mod works with vanilla trees and should be compatible with most other mods, but if you have multiple tree-adding mods, dense trees will only spawn for the vanilla tree types unless specifically configured otherwise.
Can I adjust how often Dense Trees spawn?
You can control dense tree spawning through config options like biomeBlacklist and saplingToDenseTreeChance; check your config file for spawn rate or frequency settings specific to your mod version.
