Windy: Configurable

A small visual client-side mod that helps outdoor areas feel more alive without changing gameplay.
An unofficial port of Windy mod with additional configurable options.
Originally created by Bonfire Studios which was inspired by Breezy mod.

📖 About 📖

Wind particles occasionally drift through the air around the player, creating a soft atmospheric effect. Their density reacts to the weather by default, and can also be configured to scale with altitude, biome, and more.

This unofficial multi-loader fork provides Forge / NeoForge / Fabric versions of Windy with many new configuration options, all editable in-game.

Features

• Ambient wind particles
• Reactive to weather state
• Lightweight & client-side
• In-game configuration
• Configurable wind density
• Optional altitude-based wind scaling
• Optional biome-based wind rules

Compatibility

	Special integration with Living Wind has been added! Windy's particles now follow the actual wind direction, while their spawn rate and animations dynamically adjust to the wind strength around the player.

Config

General options:

• Enable or disable wind particles
• Require wind particles to have sky access
• Choose how wind density is calculated

---

Wind Density Modes:
[Default: Constant]

a.) Constant:
wind uses the same spawn rate multiplier at every height above the configured minimum wind height.

b.) Y_Level_Scaling:
wind gradually scales between a minimum and maximum spawn rate multiplier across the configured Y-level range.

Constant Wind:

• Set the minimum Y level where wind can appear.
• Set one spawn rate multiplier used at every valid height.

Y-Level Scaling Wind:

• Set the minimum Y level where wind starts.
• Set the multiplier used at the minimum height.
• Set the maximum Y level where wind reaches full strength.
• Set the multiplier used at and above the maximum height.

---

Biome Wind:
[Default: Disabled]

• Optional biome-based wind rules.
• Biome rules multiply the active CONSTANT or Y_LEVEL_SCALING wind density.
• Add biome IDs or biome tags to increase, reduce, or disable wind in specific areas.
• Use the blacklist to fully disable wind in selected biomes or biome tags.
• Priority: blacklist wins; exact biome ID multipliers override tag multipliers; if multiple tags match, the highest matching tag multiplier is used.
