[512x - 32x] Better Grass & Leaves / Foliage [MC1.6 - 1.12 & 1.16]

[MauveCloud]

I'm using this with the Forestry mod in 1.7.10, and the "better leaves" look wrong for conifers like Red Spruce as seen in this screenshot:

Mundane Larch is similarly affected, but that's not visible in the screenshot.
Is there anything I can do to make it use the "conifer" leaf texture instead for those diagonal parts?

You would at least need to provide a new large (rounded) texture from what I can recall.

You would need to place that new texture in /assets/betterfoliage/textures/forestry/forestry_conifer.png (possibly assets/betterfoliage/textures/forestry/leaves/forestry_conifer.png -- I can't recall how the relations work).

Then open /assets/betterfoliage/textures/leafTextureMappings.cfg

Then add something similar to:

Code: Select all

forestry/leaves:conifers=forestry_conifer

The above means "look inside /assets/minecraft/forestry/leaves for textures that partially match conifers and use =[texture] as the rounded leaves for whichever block uses the [texture]=".

Hopefully that's not too confusing...

I haven't tested this. Pretty sure it'll work after deciphering what I wrote in the .cfg file...

Note: I believe this has changed to qualified block IDs in later versions of the mod (or it always was and I was super dumb before, but then I don't know why I would have left that note in the file).

Actually, I just searched the MCF thread for Better Foliage, and according to this post, that config file is for the falling leaves, not the leaf blocks. However, I found a different post that gave me a hint for how to fix this. It looks like I just need to make copies of the leaf block variants under /assets/betterfoliage/textures/blocks/forestry/leaves/.

Edit: didn't work. Maybe I can try the config as well, and if that doesn't work, I'll ask OctarineNoise for help.

[HanFox]

Ah you need to put them in that folder and call the png better_leaves[texturename].png

But yes the mapping cfg seems to be for falling leaves. My bad.

[MauveCloud]

I tried several variants of that - with and without the "better_" prefix, and with and without an underscore between "leaves" and "conifers" in the filename. None of them worked. :cry: I applied that to the "changed", "fancy", and "plain" files just in case it was using one of the others despite my having graphics set to "Fancy" rather than "Fast", but only for the conifers for now (I would have applied it to the others if I'd gotten it to work for conifers).

[HanFox]

After getting home and checking properly I realise I've been talking a lot of hot cack.

What you posted on MCF should be correct. I guess it's bugged. Maybe confused by periods in the filenames. We'll see if OctarineNoise replies, I guess.

Will this work for mc 1.12+? I heard some can and some don't (example MC1.12 PCraft work fine with MC1.12.2). Yes, I know Better Grass & Leaves hasn't updated to 1.12 as yet so its not 'rush' type thing but still as question.

[HanFox]

Better Foliage has updated to MC1.12 (which is what the mod is now called) and this patch doesn't work properly as you can see from the last few posts on the previous page.

If I ever get a chance I'll fix it, but I have more important things to do.

I know its been awhile on this forum but in the posts above I understand there been conflict between BetterFolige and Optifine. Its mentioned here CurseForge in the comment section as even I questioned about it. So above issue might not be on texture end of things. Just a heads up to help.

[HanFox]

Not sure what you mean. It works fine with Optifine.
