🌿 Why This Exists

Packs like locking the grass color and locking the grass color revive the bright, always-green look of Minecraft Classic/Alpha. Fast Better Grass keeps terrain edges tidy, but its full grass-blocks still pick up biome tints—so plains, jungles, swamps, etc. show jarring color shifts. This add-on keeps Fast Better Grass’s sides overlay while locking the grass color to the grass_block_top.png texture, giving you seamless greenery everywhere.

🗒️ What’s Inside

The *only* file touched is:

``` assets/minecraft/models/block/grass_block.json ```

It simply drops every `tintindex: 0`, disabling biome tint:

❌ Original (from Fast Better Grass)

```json { "parent": "block/block", "textures": { "particle": "block/dirt", "bottom": "block/dirt", "top": "block/grass_block_top" }, "elements": [ { "from": [0, 0, 0], "to": [16, 16, 16], "faces": { "down": { "uv": [0,0,16,16], "texture": "#bottom", "cullface": "down" }, "up": { "uv": [0,0,16,16], "texture": "#top", "cullface": "up", "tintindex": 0 }, "north": { "uv": [0,0,16,16], "texture": "#top", "cullface": "north", "tintindex": 0 }, "south": { "uv": [0,0,16,16], "texture": "#top", "cullface": "south", "tintindex": 0 }, "west": { "uv": [0,0,16,16], "texture": "#top", "cullface": "west", "tintindex": 0 }, "east": { "uv": [0,0,16,16], "texture": "#top", "cullface": "east", "tintindex": 0 } } } ] } ```
