![banner](https://github.com/user-attachments/assets/ab68b2ae-8350-4fb3-9773-a38ae8e7584c) Better Foliage - Legacy Edition =============================== A modern fork of BetterFoliage by octarine_noise for Minecraft 1.7.10. This mod alters the appearance of leaves, logs, grass and other natural miscellanea. Requires [UniMixins](https://modrinth.com/mod/unimixins) and either [Forgelin: Legacy](https://modrinth.com/mod/forgelin-legacy) or [GTNH's Forgelin](https://github.com/GTNewHorizons/Forgelin/releases).
(Use whichever one comes included in your modpack. If neither is present, I recommend Forgelin: Legacy over GTNH's Forgelin) **Important:** If you're upgrading from a previous version of the mod or from the original Better Foliage mod you must delete the config file located at `config/BetterFoliage.cfg` and let the mod regenerate it on the next game launch for any updated fixes to be applied in-game. Make a backup of any settings you've changed before doing so. This mod aims to enhance the visuals of your world by adding more detail to nature related blocks. Better Foliage - Legacy Edition is a 100% client-side mod, and does not need to be installed on the server. It also aims to be compatible with other graphics mods, such as [Angelica](https://modrinth.com/mod/angelica), [SwanSong](https://modrinth.com/mod/swansong) and Optifine. #### Why this instead of the original? Besides offering more customization options this version also improves upon the original BetterFoliage 1.7.10 version by fixing bugs and adding support to more mods by default. The full list is too big to fit in a short sentence, not to mention still improving, but a few of the more notable cases are: - Swansong - Tinker's Construct - TerraFirmaCraft - GregTech 6 - Witchery - The Twilight Forest - Et Futurum Requiem - Everything in the GregTech New Horizons modpack ## Installation Place the mod's jar file inside the `mods` folder of your modded Minecraft instance. Make sure you've also installed the latest [Forge](https://files.minecraftforge.net/net/minecraftforge/forge/index_1.7.10.html) for Minecraft 1.7.10, [UniMixins](https://modrinth.com/mod/unimixins) and [Forgelin: Legacy](https://modrinth.com/mod/forgelin-legacy). ## Features All the features this mod adds can be individually configured and toggled based on preference by accessing the configuration menu (F8 by default).
