Rainbow’s Foliage Polytone Resource Pack FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Do I need PolyTone installed for this pack to work?
Yes, Rainbow's Foliage Polytone Resource Pack requires the PolyTone mod to function. PolyTone is what enables the block rotation tricks that make the leaves look bushy without adding extra geometry.
Will this pack slow down my game?
No, the pack is designed to keep performance high by using block rotation instead of adding complex 3D shapes. Your game should run just as fast as before, even with the enhanced foliage.
What plants does this pack change besides tree leaves?
The pack modifies a wide variety of vegetation including bushes, flowers, and other foliage across the world. It goes beyond just basic tree leaves to make your entire landscape look thicker and more natural.
Does this work with Biomes O' Plenty trees?
Yes, Rainbow's Foliage adds thick leaves to all the custom trees found in Biomes O' Plenty, making them look much fuller and more detailed.
Can I use this pack with shader packs?
Yes, the pack works well with shader packs. The bushy leaves will render with your shader's lighting and effects for even better-looking forests.
What do I do if leaves in a specific mod don't look bushy?
Check that the mod's leaf block names match what Rainbow's Foliage expects. If they don't, the pack won't apply the bushy effect to those blocks. You can also stack another texture pack on top that uses the same bushy leaf names.
Does this pack work with The Aether?
Yes, it supports The Aether, Deep Aether, and Aether Redux, making the magical trees in those dimensions look much fuller.
Can I combine this with other texture packs?
Yes, you can stack other texture packs on top of Rainbow's Foliage as long as they use compatible leaf block names. Load Rainbow's Foliage first, then add your other packs after it.
Why is the pack file size so small?
The pack uses a single model file for each leaf type instead of creating many variations, which keeps the file size minimal while still achieving the bushy look.
Does this work with Dynamic Trees?
Yes, Rainbow's Foliage supports Dynamic Trees and will make those custom-grown trees look much bushier and more natural.
