| + | # Mods |
| + | |
| + | While this is not a modded server, there are several mods that can improve your experience in Minecraft on even Vanilla servers. All mods I mention here will run on Fabric (My recommended mod loader), however many have alternate builds available for NeoForge if you prefer. |
| + | |
| + | ## Recommended Mod Loaders |
| + | |
| + | > [!NOTE] |
| + | > If you're new to modding or just want to get started quickly, use Fabric |
| + | |
| + | ### [Fabric](https://fabricmc.net) |
| + | Fabric is a modern mod loader widely used for its simplicity and efficiency. |
| + | |
| + | For an easy and streamlined modding experience, Fabric is an excellent choice. However, you'll need to install the [Fabric API](https://modrinth.com/mod/fabric-api) for it to work. |
| + | |
| + | Additionally, consider installing [Cloth Config](https://modrinth.com/mod/cloth-config) and [Mod Menu](https://modrinth.com/mod/modmenu) to make managing and configuring your mods easier. |
| + | |
| + | ### [NeoForge](https://neoforged.net) |
| + | NeoForge is a fork of Forge, created to resolve some management challenges with the original Forge loader. |
| + | |
| + | You can learn more about the reasons behind this fork [here](https://neoforged.net/news/theproject/). |
| + | |
| + | ## Performance Mods |
| + | |
| + | If you want to drastically improve your game's performance, use the following mods with [Fabric|Mods#fabric] |
| + | |
| + | - [[Sodium|Mods#sodium]] |
| + | - [[Entity Culling|Mods#entity-culling]] |
| + | - [[FerriteCore|Mods#ferritecore]] |
| + | - [[ImmediatelyFast|Mods#immediatelyfast]] |
| + | |
| + | ## List of Recommended Mods |
| + | |
| + | ### Sodium |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/sodium |
| + | |
| + | Sodium is a powerful optimization mod. It improves FPS, reduces micro-stuttering, and optimizes rendering efficiency, making it especially valuable for players on low-end or mid-range PCs. It achieves this by entirely replacing minecraft's rendering engine with a more efficient implementation, significantly improving framerates for all configurations. This is the one mod I think everyone should use. |
| + | |
| + | Recommended to use with [[Reece's Sodium Options|Mods#reeces-sodium-options]] for a better options menu. |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric (Recommended) |
| + | - ✅ NeoForge |
| + | |
| + | ### Reece's Sodium Options |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/reeses-sodium-options |
| + | |
| + | Replaces Sodium's Options Screen with intention of improving User Experience |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric |
| + | - ✅ NeoForge |
| + | |
| + | ### Iris |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/iris |
| + | |
| + | Iris mod built for Fabric that brings compatibility for OptiFine Shaders to Fabric. It works seamlessly with most OptiFine shader packs, making it easy to enhance your game’s visuals without the usual performance hiccups. Built on the Fabric mod loader, Iris focuses on optimizing the way Minecraft handles rendering, so you can enjoy stunning landscapes and immersive lighting effects without sacrificing smooth gameplay. If you’re looking to add a little magic to your Minecraft experience, Iris is the way to go. |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric (Recommended) |
| + | - ✅ NeoForge |
| + | |
| + | List of popular shader packs compatible with Iris: |
| + | > [!NOTE] |
| + | > The only difference between the two Complementary shader packs is the default configuration. |
| + | - [Complementary Reimagined](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined): One of the most popular shader packs, and for good reason. Super customizable and adds a classic shader flavor to your game. |
| + | - [Complementary Unbound](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-unbound): A complementary configuration with a greater focus on visual quality. |
| + | - [Rethinking Voxels](https://modrinth.com/shader/rethinking-voxels): A shader pack based on complementary with a bigger focus on sharp shadows and realistic lighting. |
| + | - [BSL Shaders](https://modrinth.com/shader/bsl-shaders): Subtle, vanilla flavored shaders for your game |
| + | - [BSL Shaders Classic](https://modrinth.com/shader/bsl-shaders-classic): If BSL isn't subtle enough for you, these are the shaders to use. Subtle enough you could forget you even have them on until you see a screenshot of vanilla Minecraft and remember how bad it looks normally |
| + | |
| + | ### Sound Physics Remastered |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/sound-physics-remastered |
| + | |
| + | A Minecraft mod that provides realistic sound attenuation, reverberation, and absorption through blocks. |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric |
| + | - ✅ NeoForge |
| + | |
| + | ### Continuity |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/continuity |
| + | |
| + | > [!NOTE] |
| + | > Continuity adds two default texture packs that you'll need to enable for the mod to work with Minecraft's default textures. |
| + | |
| + | Continuity is a Fabric mod that allows resource packs that use the OptiFine connected textures format, OptiFine emissive textures format (only for blocks and item models), or OptiFine custom block layers format to work without OptiFine. |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric |
| + | - ✅ NeoForge |
| + | |
| + | ### 3D Skin Layers |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/3dskinlayers |
| + | |
| + | Replaces the usually flat second layer of player skins with a 3d modeled version. Will automatically switch to the vanilla 2d rendering when players are further away than 12 blocks in order to increase the framerate. Also supports transparent parts on things like glasses! |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric |
| + | - ✅ NeoForge |
| + | |
| + | ### Zoomify |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/zoomify |
| + | |
| + | Zoomify aims to provide the easiest, most configurable and most sexy looking zoom mod you will ever find. |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric |
| + | - ❌ NeoForge |
| + | |
| + | ### Entity Culling |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/entityculling |
| + | |
| + | Minecraft skips rendering things that are behind you, so why is it rendering everything that you still can't see because of a wall in the way? This mod utilizes your other CPU cores/threads to do really quick path-tracing from your camera to all block/-entities to determine rather they are visible or not. During the rendering, the not visible ones will be skipped the same way entities behind you are. |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric |
| + | - ✅ NeoForge |
| + | |
| + | ### FerriteCore |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/ferrite-core |
| + | |
| + | This mod reduces the memory usage of Minecraft in a few different ways. |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric |
| + | - ✅ NeoForge |
| + | |
| + | ### ImmediatelyFast |
| + | https://modrinth.com/mod/immediatelyfast |
| + | |
| + | ImmediatelyFast improves the way Minecraft sends data to your GPU for rendering to achieve faster frame times. |
| + | |
| + | - ✅ Fabric |
| + | - ✅ NeoForge |
