Ever got annoyed by that snow levitating halfway in the air above a stair or a slab? Ever wanted to get your roof covered with snow? Or just wanted to place some kind of cushin (wool) on your benches (stairs)? Or just want to play with a snow cannon (auto-shooting)? Then moresnow might be something for you. It is not a perfect solution, but it is a huge improvement.

Snow will adjust its shape to the following nodes below: stairs, slabs and fences. With moreblocks installed, it'll adjust to the corner stairs (inner and outer), the panel and the microblock as well. Homedecor comes with 3d roof nodes - all three types of them are supported (minus the raillike flat one). Technic's CNC machine creates slopes and fitting inner and outer edges which are the same shape as those homedecor roofs - and which are also supported (sometimes people use them for smooth grass hills). The cottages roof nodes are treated like stairs.


There's also a nice autumn leaves texture provided by LazyJ. He had the idea for those leaves as well. They adapt to all the shapes listed above.

Wool of all selected colors (configurable) can also adjust its shape to some of the nodes below. Some shapes are excluded (homedecor and technic) because you'd seldom need those forms with wool. Instead, the wool shapes are slightly adjusted in order to create nice covers/"cushions" for stairs. Never again need you sit on a hard stone stair!

If no detailled snow shape is available, it will default to a thin cover on the floor. This is pretty useful for carpets as well. Important: You still can't have two nodes in one place. The carpet only works if you put nothing else on the table or above the chair!

Fence nodes get a tiny extra cup of snow on their fence posts.

The roof nodes (not the raillike shingles) from homedecor get their own cover for each shape as well. These shapes fit to some nodes from the CNC machine from technic as well (they're called "slopes" there). Wool does not support this particular shape since it does not seem useful there.


Several shapes of stairs and moreblocks nodes are supported. Wool/carpets have a slightly diffrent shape than snow. The wood below is only a sample. It works with all those shapes. Plus, with the carpets, you can remove the stair node as soon as the carpet has adjusted its shape.

You can see some sample furniture items which can be built with the carpets.

It may not be easy to get enough snow in your target area, so this mod here comes with a snow cannon.
Feed the machine with either water buckes or ice blocks. Click on one of the programs offered to start the machine. It will consume the water and/or ice and return empty buckets for your full ones. The program "ordered" will cover a 9x9 area around the snow cannon with snow. "random" will place snow randomly on nodes in that 9x9 area. Beware of "crazy shooting"! In that mode, the snow cannon will *really* shoot snowballs around. They can fly a very long way.

The receipe for the snow cannon is pretty expensive. Once the machine has done its job and covered the area in snow, better pick it up and place it at the next location that needs snow.

As for the wool layers,, just place one wool in your crafting grid in order to get 9 layers. You can also craft 9 of them back into one wool block of the corresponding color. The receipes are similar to those of snoball/snowblock.

The autumn leaves (as full blocks) can be crafted directly from leaves. The torch acts as a katalysator and is returned.

Winter leaves are made out of autumn leaves with the help of some snow (which is returned). Those blocks are only decorative for winter times.

Fallen leaves are created from autumn leaves. They can be placed on top of stairs and the like - just like the snow covers or wool covers/carpets.
