there's nothing we can generally do about that other than simply disabling snow on our roof tiles

[Raycoms]

Theoretically we could make our own version of "snow" which is smoother on it. I think there is stuff for that probably. Am Fr., 27. Sept. 2019 um 06:28 Uhr schrieb AshersLab < [email protected]>:

possibly? however snow is an actual block so we couldn't just adjust that. instead we'd have to have seperate models for our shingles, which would also mean in the very least twice as many models

[Raycoms]

No possibility for an overlay or something like that? If not, we can just set that snow can't land on any of our shingles or shingle slabs. Am Fr., 27. Sept. 2019 um 06:32 Uhr schrieb AshersLab < [email protected]>:

an overlay? not sure what you mean there, any rendering is done via models.

[Raycoms]

I don't know, something like what is done with the waterlogged stuff of blocks. Am Fr., 27. Sept. 2019 um 06:57 Uhr schrieb AshersLab < [email protected]>:

Could you just use a different texture? Colton Schlosser

@cltnschlosser would require a different model (as mentioned)
@Raycoms waterlogged is a full block of water "overlayed"
while that would technically work, that's not how snow layers usually look in MC, it would be really weird looking that way, plus it wouldn't be solid, we'd also have to create a crap tonne of code to mimic that vanilla behaviour (waterlogged blocks changed crap tonnes of stuff in mc)

[Raycoms]

OKay, then we should probably just disable snow on them

[Zygus42]

There's several mods that add snow layers to stairs etc, but I tried them all when i was building my latest mod pack, and they use weird workarounds that are not very server friendly.

[Asherslab]

@Zygus42 yes there are mods that enable that type of thing, however that would require us to also add code to either support those mods, or add those types of features into our own, this isn't something that we'd really want to do, nor would it be very feasible due to the fact that our shingles, while similar to stairs and technically are stairs, have different models/textures/etc from stairs

[Zygus42]

I wasn't suggesting you do, in fact, I was just pointing out that there doesn't seem an easy solution to this problem in minecraft as it stands. Without, as you say, adding new models for a fairly fringe situation. On the other hand, snow would fit the look of your tile set perfectly, making it look like a european christmas scene.
