rainbow's foliage: polytone edition

a resource pack all about adding detail and variation to vegetation and other blocks. split into two versions, one that is compatible with Vanilla and another which requires the PolyTone mod. the vanilla edition currently only changes leaves, while the polytone edition affects a large number of plants.

performance

rainbow's foliage adds detail to leaves without adding any extra geometry. this means there should be little to no performance hit when using it over vanilla.

compatibility

rainbow's foliage: polytone edition takes advantage of polytone's unrestricted multiple axis rotations in blockstate files. this means each leaf only needs one model and one blockstate file which dramatically decreases bloat compared to the vanilla edition.

are you a resource pack creator? you can add support for rainbow's foliage by adding your own retextures of [variant]_leaves_bushy. then, players can put your pack on top of rainbow's foliage to make it work! note: this will not work if the resource pack itself modifies leaf models or blockstates.
