SnoGro (SnowGrow)
SnoGro
AKA SnowGrow
Version: v1.2.7(release)
CB 1.6.2-R0.1
Authors: @Musaddict @Feed_Dante
This plugin uses all 8 of the snowtops (yes, there are 8 heights of snow!) using a gradual snow pile-up algorithm to make aesthetically pleasing snowy areas! The snow is set up to not build up on cliff edges, or borders of the chosen area, so you can simply walk into them without worrying about it lookin' choppy! Works great in forests, adds a little extra touch to the feel. Makes everything less... blocky.
Features:
- Uses all 8 snowtops! (well, technically 7 and a snow block)
- Hooked into weather!
- Piles-up snow automatically in snowy biomes.
- Start it snowing for as long as you want using /snow [radius] [time]
- Radius is Square, not Circular
- Time is in seconds. (300 = 5 min)
- Stop the snow whenever you feel like it using /snow stop
- Optimized performance to relieve resource consumption on servers
- Fully compatible with WorldEdit (use snow with a double-slash to use WE's)
- Compatible with SuperPerm plugins
Permissions:
sg.snow | Starts snow /snow [radius] [time] |
sg.stop | Stops snow /snow stop |
sg.world.enable | allows the use of /snow enable [world] |
sg.world.disable | allows the use of /snow disable [world] |
OPs can, by default, start and stop snow
Known Bugs:
- Due to the restrictions of Bukkit and Minecraft, we cannot simulate snowfall within the specified radius, sorry!
- SnoGro require the server to be running Java 1.7
Thanks :) I'm really keen to try out your plugin on my map.
@Drakortha
Interesting, I would think that
would work. I'll make a new world (with spaces) and test at some point.
My world name has spaces (The Ancient World) and /snow enable [world] command won't recognize my world. I've tried;
TheAncientWorld The Ancient World "The Ancient World" "The_Ancient_World" The_Ancient_World The-Ancient-World
SnoGro does not pick up on any of these. Help would be greatly appreciated, thanks :)
Hey! Just WOW!
Found this plugin by accident and im completely astonished!
A real masterpiece.. and it looks soo gorgeous <3
Thanks a lot for this great work/plugin! Everything works great until now :)
Have a nice day!
When I have PermissionsEx installed, the snow does not pile up automatically. Are there permissions I need to give to allow this to happen during storms?
Edit: oops, figgured it out. Needed to run /snow enable [world] as op or console. Working great now. :)
Is it possible to allow manual snow piling for building purposes? Either by command or for example by throwing actual snowballs at the ground - first would make a thin snow layer at the place it hit the ground and it would kept raising with more of them.
At least, I would like some way to place/make the snow half-slabs (damage value 3 I think?) to make smooth stairs in a snow building, using other slabs/stairs looks out of place.
@GeneralShep
It's supposed to work with naturally occurring storms. (It tries to determine the biome of the block that the snow is growing on.) It seems to work for me about half the time a storm starts naturally. I've been meaning to fix it but I haven't touched this in a long time.
Is it possible for snogro to do this with natural snow and snowfall???
I have users complaining about it building up snow on half blocks, stairs and next to lights. Also sometimes it seems to detect the height weird and fill it with blocks of snow. I can get you screen shots if you would like.
Here is a video one of my users posted about the issue.

Might I request more indepth info on the config file?
Im not entirely sure what half the options mean =o

thanks for replying
@only1man1
Sadly, no. This is a vanilla mechanic that cannot be altered.
Fixed the melon/pumpkin/button/lever issue. Also, fixed the version issue. Updated to version 1.2.3.
Please fix the snow on : Signs,buttons,melons,pumpkins and levers Thanks :)
Theres some pics.
The link for version 1.2.2. still points to 1.2.1~
can you modify the snow blocks to not make shadows ? because it makes it look like the snow is floating
idk if it is possible
@zephyrz4
@zephyrz4 Snow shouldn't pile-up underneath blocks in the latest versions. That was a problem, but it's fixed now. Which version are you using? "/ck v" for version.
Updated for 1.2.5!
