Description
Ecliptic Seasons: Fabricated brings a completely new and standalone seasonal experience to Minecraft, based on the ancient Chinese calendar known as the Solar Terms (Clieck to Learn More). The year is split into four seasons, each with six solar terms, and with its own unique characteristics. You will get:
- A brand new snow-covering mechanism. Now, when the base temperature of a biome isn't cold enough, blocks will gradually be covered by a thin layer of snow in cold term, whether it's dirt, grass, leaves, or even your rooftop. These changes would not depend on chunk whether load or not, so snow doesn’t just fall around players and cost much server performance.
- A regional rainfall and agricultural system based on biomes and season. Living in the desert will be a completely different experience from living in the plains, such as sunny days all year round or occasional rain, crops difficult to grow or be grown freely. This difference also exists between spring and winter.
- The sounds and visual touches of the seasons. Feel the changes of time, daylight length changes with the seasons, which means long winter nights and long summer days. Let spend your time with firefly, fallen leaves or more.
- Fully data-driven by design. With extensive config options and support for data/resource packs, you have full control — from enabling features to fine-tuning the pace of the seasons.
All these features can be configured via the config file.
