Optimized Bushy Leaves

Optimized Bushy Leaves gives trees a fuller, bushier look, with performance in mind. It combines bushy outer leaves with an opaque leaf block, making tree canopies look dense without needing extra layers inside each block. Includes support for Biomes O’ Plenty, with more mods planned.

Requirements:

• Enable Fancy Leaves/See-Through Leaves in video settings
• Use More Culling or a similar leaf-culling mod for the intended performance benefits
• For pack versions v2.0 and newer, Polytone is required on supported Minecraft versions older than 1.21.11

Bushy leaves resource packs often require more GPU processing power because they generate additional leaf layers not only on the outer parts of tree canopies, but also inside them, where they are barely visible to the player. These hidden internal layers can have a significant impact on performance, especially on mid-range and low-end GPUs when shaders are enabled.

Mods such as More Culling can improve performance by removing internal leaf faces. However, when a resource pack adds its own additional geometry or layers inside the leaf block, these elements usually cannot be culled by the mod and may still cause noticeable performance drops.

This resource pack does not add any internal geometry inside leaf blocks and also disables leaf transparency. As a result, GPU load is significantly reduced and performance is noticeably improved. Additionally, it helps hide the unusual visual artifacts that can appear on tree canopies when using fast leaves culling.

Results may vary depending on your hardware, settings, and location in the game
