Idk why but it seems to require a lot of processing power to play with this mod. when i get near a jungle my fps drop to single digits and crashes after a while
It's because it uses "nodeboxes" to do it - the same thing that is used for stairs for instance. I'm not sure, but with the upcoming 5.7 perfomance might improve.
I like this style of leaves too. I hijack the texture layout property used for fire to achieve a similar effect, but there are some cosmetic drawbacks.
I've been tempted to suggest to the dev team a type of texture layout that would fit this use.
Hey erlehmann. I didn't make a mod for that, I sort of kept for myself as it is only in my game (Minefall, available on CDB). I should mention that in my game, leaves are not "solid" blocks (can't walk on them). If you combine firelike leave textures and solid leaves, players will probably report that they're crashing on "invisible" blocks somtimes.

PedroMerruM, your problems seem like an engine issue to me. Minetest should not crash when rendering lots of nodeboxes.
If you have not yet done so, please open an issue on Minetest's issue tracker: https://github.com/minetest/minetest/issues
Astrobe, in which mod do you use fire for a similar effect?
