Seasons and Weather Overhaul

A Minecraft Forge Mod for 1.20.1

Four seasons. Real effects. Every world feels alive.

Overview

Seasons and Weather Overhaul adds a full four-season cycle to Minecraft that actually affects how you play. Crops behave differently, water freezes, snow blankets the ground, the sky shifts in color, and particles drift through the air - all tied directly to in-game time.

Features

🌸 Spring

• Cherry blossoms drift through the air
• Ice and snow from Winter melt away
• Crops return to normal growth speed
• Sky takes on a soft green tint

☀️ Summer

• Crops grow faster than usual
• Sky brightens with a warm blue hue
• The world is at its most lush

🍂 Autumn

• Custom Orange and red leaves drift down around you
• Leaf blocks on all trees change color - oak, birch, jungle, acacia, dark oak
• Crops slow down significantly
• Sky warms to an amber tint

❄️ Winter

• Snow layers accumulate on the ground around you as you move
• Water surfaces freeze to packed ice
• Crops stop growing entirely
• Snowflakes fall in the open air
• Sky shifts to a cold blue tone

Season Transitions

When a season changes you'll see a colored announcement in chat:

• Spring has arrived!
• Summer has arrived!
• Autumn has arrived!
• Winter has arrived!

HUD

The current season is displayed in the top-left corner of your screen at all times. Can be toggled off in the config.

Configuration

After loading the mod once, a config file is generated at:

saves/<worldname>/serverconfig/seasonsmod-common.toml

Here you can change things like the length of seasons, wether the water should freeze or not and the visibility of the HUD.

Requirements:

• Minecraft 1.20.1
• Forge 47.x
• Java 17

Compatibility

• Works in both singleplayer and multiplayer
• Season state is saved per world and persists across sessions
• In multiplayer, the season is synced from server to all connected clients automatically
