The overlay makes some places look especially striking. Here is where to look and how to get clean shots of the fall colors.
Where the colors shine
- Dense forests: Tall, packed trees give you whole hillsides of red, orange and yellow leaves. Fly or climb to a high point to see the canopy blend together.
- Birch and oak areas: Groves that mix these trees with open grass show off the warm leaf colors against the recolored ground.
- Waterfronts: Lakes and streams lined with trees create a strong contrast between still water and bright foliage.
- Flower-filled meadows and gardens: The pack recolors plants as well as leaves, so grassy, plant-heavy areas turn warm too.
Taking the screenshot
1. Find your spot and face the area with the most trees in view.
2. Press F1 to hide the HUD and your hand.
3. Adjust Field of View in Options if you want a wider landscape shot.
4. Press F2 to save a screenshot. It goes into the screenshots folder inside your Minecraft game directory.
Tips:
- Raise your Render Distance in Video Settings so distant forests appear instead of fog.
- Try different times of day. Morning and evening light make warm colors feel cozier.
- If you use shaders, remember they need a loader such as Iris or OptiFine. The overlay is still turned on from the Resource Packs menu as usual.
