About this project
What does Better Water [B.W] add?
Welcome to the perks of **Better Water!**Better Water is an all-round, cofigurable, and mod-compatible mod that is used to touch up the basic Minecraft Vanilla water. Visibility and speed are the main configurations that allow you to change the way you see and move under the water!
FOG - Remove the fog entirely for a crisp and clear underwater experience, or keep it enabled and raise the fog to the point where visibility is extremely hard to see! Your pick!
MOVEMENT SPEED - No need for the basic slow movement. Keep your speed at 1x speed (Normal Minecraft water swim speed) or enable it up to 3x speed! This allows you to zip under the water. Pair it with a trident, see the magic that happens!
As more ideas and submissions happen, updates will be released! Thank you! <3
