True Snow Mod FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
Does True Snow Mod work on multiplayer servers?
Yes, True Snow Mod is client-side only, so you can install it and join any vanilla multiplayer server without the server needing the mod installed. Your snowy visuals and sounds won't affect other players or the world save.
Why don't I see frost on plants in my world?
Frost overlays only appear in cold biomes like Snowy Plains, Groves, Jagged Peaks, Frozen Oceans, and Ice Spikes. Make sure you're in a cold region and check that frost overlays are enabled in the mod's configuration settings.
Can I turn off the blizzard sounds?
Yes, you can adjust or disable ambient wind and blizzard audio through the mod's configuration file. You can also lower the volume of weather sounds independently from other game audio.
Does this mod add new blocks to my world?
No, True Snow Mod only applies visual textures and atmospheric effects to existing vanilla blocks and plants. It's completely safe for world saves and won't clutter your inventory with new items.
How do I make the fog thicker or thinner?
You can adjust fog density through the mod's configuration settings to match your preferred atmosphere and visibility. The fog automatically appears in snowy biomes and can be customized per biome type.
Will True Snow Mod work with other visual mods?
True Snow Mod is generally compatible with other client-side visual mods, but texture packs or mods that heavily modify biome colors or weather may conflict. Test compatibility by loading both mods together in a test world.
Why is the sky still blue in snowy biomes?
The overcast grey sky should automatically apply when you enter cold biomes. If it doesn't, verify the mod is loaded correctly and check that biome-specific settings aren't disabled in your configuration.
Does this mod affect performance?
True Snow Mod is lightweight since it only modifies textures and adds ambient sounds on the client side. Most players see minimal performance impact, though fog density and particle effects can be adjusted if needed.
Can I customize which biomes get frost effects?
Yes, you can enable or disable frost overlays for specific cold biomes through the mod's configuration file. This lets you control exactly which biomes display snowy plant textures.
Do rain storms turn into blizzards automatically?
Yes, whenever it rains in a cold biome, the weather transforms into a blizzard with loud howling wind sounds and increased atmospheric effects. This happens automatically without any player input needed.
