**Mod Content:**
\n– **Volumetric Clouds:** clouds now can be 32-64 blocks tall, they are fluffy and have better shading
\n– **Local weather:** rain and snow are now local, they will move together with clouds inside rain fronts
\n– **Better weather sounds:** better rain effect sounds
\n– **Better rain\/snow rendering:** snow and rain now have LOD and can render on larger distances
\n– **Rain drop circles:** additional visual effect to the rain
\n– **Dimension tags:** allows to define weather settings per dimension (including modded)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
