Tan's Huge Trees Wiki & Guide

!Banner

NeoForge 1.21.1 currently buggy on server. I just come back from burning out, and now developing my magic mod again after a year. So please be patient while waiting for the fix. I'm sorry. 💚

Introduction

Tan's Huge Trees is a nature enhancement mod. Generate giant trees on world generation and from my saplings, with some detailed systems. The world generation trees will have many variations. Sometimes dies, sometimes falls. They can also drop their leaves in front of your house. Designed with custom pack system, like datapack. People can edit tree settings, create own trees, and share to other people.

Started on around April 2021, because I want to sit in a village from Millenaire mod in the giant forest. After trying to spawn a big tree with structure through MCreator and it works, so continue developing it. Since December 2024, I redesigned most parts with handcode and make it fully working on world generation. It's now bigger, not just the trees.

• Custom packs made by users can be found in our Discord Forum
• If you want to disable vanilla trees, here is my small datapack for that No Vanilla Trees.
• You can see all default tree species and biomes in the Wiki
• 1.12 - 1.19 was discontinued. They're very old and I didn't write much info of them. I may write them in the wiki in the future, if I want and have time.

Installation

This mod required TannyJung's Main Pack, the official pack with default trees and settings. The mod can install it automatically once you playing with this mod for the first time, so it's optional to manual install it. For more info about how to install and update can be read in Installation Guide.

Features

• Custom Pack : In short, it's similar to data-driven system. Custom packs will use to add and edit most contents in the mod. Official pack designed to be able to update through the internet. New trees by me can be added into your game without updating the mod. People can also make own custom packs to edit the mod and share to other people.
• World Generation : Trees in world gen is not real time procedural generated, but pre-generated with a lot of shapes. Load into the world by my own system. The tree size can be up to 1,000x1,000 blocks. I also added spawn conditions such as group spawning and waterside style.
• Dead Trees : The trees can generate as dead trees. Sometimes no leaves, no twig, hollow, or even fallen. By chance and by their unviable ecosystems. Living trees can also become dead tree after all leaves is gone, or after cutting their center part, which located where roots and trunk meet.
• Tree Generator : This mod also includes tree generator, made with combo of commands and handcode. I used it to generate all trees in the mod. There's no any tutorial of how to use it yet.

Saplings : There's some built-in saplings to plant in survival and creative mode, found in creative tab and sapling trader. Anyway, you can find all sapling blueprints in custom packs, get them using give command /give @p tanshugetrees:tree_generator{BlockEntityTag:{ForgeData:{path:"#main/redwood/redwood"}}} for 1.21+ it's /give @p tanshugetrees:tree_generator[minecraft:block_entity_data={id:"",NeoForgeData:{tanshugetrees:{path:"#main/redwood/redwood"}}}]. For sapling trader, he can be summonned by put flowering azalea leaves into campfire, you will get a special flower, place it and wait.

• Leaf Drop and Regrowth : Most trees can be drop and regrow their leaves. I also added seasons system. Install with Serene Seasons mod to syncs our seasons to their seasons. Some trees will fall their leaves in autumn and regrow in spring.
• Leaf Litter : Built-in leaf litter system. Create leaf litter on ground and water while generate in world gen and when leaves drop. Let's grab a broom and go sweep some leaves at front of your house.
• Leaf Auto Decay : Some trees can automatic decay their leaves after cutting their twig parts. Note that process speed may very slow, depends on tree size and how many trees in the area.

Compatibility

Here is list of mods that this mod designed to compatible to by default. I like to make mod that can work by itself without dependencies. So in default, it only support what I want to do. While most parts of the mod is already customizable, you can manual adding mod compatibility by config and custom packs.
