About this project
What does RLFoliage (Ported) add?
RLFoliage
An unofficial Forge 1.20.1 continuation of RLFoliage — the mod that made leaves, grass, and a dozen other little details in Minecraft actually feel alive.
RLFoliage is itself a fork of Better Foliage by fonnymunkey, based on the original Better Foliage by octarine-noise (code) and Meringue (textures).
This port is not affiliated with or endorsed by either — it exists to bring the same look and feel forward to modern Forge.
What it does
Puffy round leaf overlays on every tree, generated live from the tree's own texture — including modded trees. Resource packs that retexture leaves are reflected correctly, with no stale or mismatched colors.
Grass and mycelium tufts
Underwater algae and reeds ("seaweed")
Coral on sand
Cactus thorns
Packed ice icicles
Lily pad roots and flowers
Falling leaf and rising soul particles for extra atmosphere.
Compatibility with several popular tree and foliage mods, including Traverse, Defiled Lands, and Dynamic Trees.
Dynamic Trees support includes leaf overlays that follow felled Dynamic Trees logs.
A full in-game settings screen through
Mods → RLFoliage → Config.Every feature can be individually toggled and tuned, with tooltips and one-click reset to default.
Works correctly with Embeddium (Sodium for Forge) and Oculus shaderpacks.
