    I have no idea how to use this. I have this as my config and set the time, but nothing happens :S

    Code:
    #Edit to change time to form snow block
    Wed Jul 20 14:22:50 MDT 2011
    Lowerbound=60

    All you have to change is the 60, this is the minimum time to form a snow block
     
  13. Does this mean the first snowlayer will eventually turn into a snow block, then it snows, and another snow layer forms on top of that, and then another snowblock will form? How high will this go? :)

    As far as avalanches go, you're probably better off waiting for @mindless728 to finish RealFluids. He's doing a recode now which will allow any block id to behave like a fluid.

    i could add this as a fluid to create, call it RealAvalanche (maybe?)

    OP don't worry i won't even be looking at your code, though a specific release like this will more than likely have better performance
