Snowy leaves that works for you, everywhere (especially servers).
Leaves will slowly fade into their snowy colors during snowfall comprable to the same feature found at Minecraft: Bedrock Edition. Timings ang transition conditions are fully configurable!
Soon for version 0.6.0 (currently in Beta):
- This mods modifies Minecraft core shaders.
This is to achieve smooth transition instead of the former reliance on the more demanding and clunky chunk rebuilds. - This mod will not work when Iris shaders is enabled.
A fallback render is being considered at the moment.

Compared to other snowy leaves mods, this one is fully client-side! You can join servers with no worries with things like registry mismatch and weird blocks that shouldn't be rendered there! Improvements through texture modifications allows leaves to reach true white at their fully frosted state instead of just gray leaves.
Configuration
The Visual Snowy Leaves configuration can be accessed through three ways:
- with Fabric API installed, you can bind a key to open the config screen
- with ModMenu, the same config screen can be accessed through the mod menu instead
- in any case, the configuration can still be accessed at
<.minecraft>/config/visual-snowy-leaves.json

It's a snowy day as your conscience drifts upon the distant evergreen. Your gaze falls on one tall spruce tree. The snow is magical under the peeking sunlight.
Intentionally unaffected leaves include: Cherry, Azalea, and Flowering Azalea. Edit: I forgot to add Dark Oak trees-
A large oak tree with snowy leaves effect paired with Vanilla Tweaks' Bushy Leaves resource pack.
Notice that some of the leaves look too much snowy while the Jungle Leaves is a little blue.
Snowy leaves will appear when it's snowing. Updating the chunk will fix the leaves to the current color. Leaf colors are not yet the same with MCBE.
