Dynamic ocean and shoreline waves for Minecraft

Wavify adds ambient water waves to oceans, beaches, shores, and islands to make Minecraft’s water feel more alive and dynamic.

Waves are most noticeable along coastlines, where larger swells can roll toward beaches and rocky terrain. Waves may also interact with nearby blocks, creating more dramatic shorelines and cliffside water effects. During full moons, some waves can emit a subtle nighttime glow.

About This Project

Wavify is an independently maintained fork inspired by the original Tidal mod.

This project exists to keep the wave system playable and functional on newer Minecraft versions while also addressing bugs, crashes, and gameplay issues encountered during testing. It is not an official continuation of the original project and is not affiliated with or endorsed by the original author.

The focus of this fork is:

• Updating compatibility for newer Minecraft versions
• Fixing reproducible bugs and crashes
• Improving general stability and gameplay behavior
• Continuing maintenance when possible

Because the original project was still in an early/experimental state, some unfinished systems and edge cases may still exist.

Known Issues

Some issues and limitations may still be present, including:

• Incomplete or missing wave sound effects
• Limited configuration options
• Rendering or overlay systems that may still need optimization
• Occasional unusual wave behavior or performance spikes in certain environments

If you encounter problems, please report them with as much detail as possible so they can be reproduced and investigated properly.

Chunk Reloading

Wave generation relies on environmental calculations that are performed in the background. If waves appear incorrect or fail to spawn properly, you can refresh nearby chunk data using:
