Example video (with "cartoon" type snow): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yWGlLhgNtvU&fmt=22

To activate the snow, hold down ctrl and press s (or type /snow). Do this again to stop the snow
To access and manipulate the snow settings, hold down shift and press s (or type /snowsettings)

If you experience lag with snow, reduce the settings to a more comfortable level

Settings:
- Snow density
- Snow type ("real" or "cartoon")
- Snow wind direction
- Snow wind speed
- Snow fall speed
- Snowflake size
- Snowflake jitter

Exported functions (clientside):
- updateSnowType(type) - "real" or "cartoon"
- updateSnowDensity(new_density, blend) - blend indicates whether the new density should blend into the old density, rather than just appear all at once
- updateSnowWindDirection(x, y) - between 1 and 0
- updateSnowWindSpeed(speed)
- updateSnowflakeSize(min_size, max_size)
- updateSnowJitter(true/false)
- startSnow()
- stopSnow()
- setGuiEnabled(enabled) - true or false (this controls whether players will have access to their own snow settings gui, also available in the meta.xml)
- setSnowToggle(enabled) - true or false (this controls whether players will be able to turn the snow on and off, also available in the meta.xml)...
