Snow! Real Magic! ⛄ (Neo/Forge)

This is a simple tweak mod which can enrich behavior of vanilla snow layer.

With this mod you can:

• Place snow and fence/wall/tallgrass in the same block!
• Snow layer will fall like sand. If it touches water source, it will become ice!
• Snow layer will accumulate during snow storm!
• Snow layer will have thinner bounding box like Bedrock edition!
• Reduce fall damage on snow!
• Make snow always replaceable by other block!
• Make snow never melt (disabled by default)
• And more!

All features can be disabled in config.

>> Fabric Edition

1.14~1.15 Notes:

It is recommended to install MixinBootstrap to enable full features There is some lighting incompatibility with shaders, set Shaders > Old Lighting: ON to fix this
