Better Fps - Render Distance[Forge]

The Better Fps Render Distance modification offers several optimizations to enhance performance and increase frames per second. This is the Forge version, while the Fabric variant is available separately.

Render Distance Optimization

Minecraft's default system displays all objects within a square area (cylindrical in version 1.18). This mod changes this principle to a three-dimensional circular visibility zone that can be stretched horizontally through configuration settings or video parameters (the button in video options is unavailable when using Optifine). The greater the stretch, the fewer caves below you will be rendered, especially distant ones. This reduces the number of processed chunk sections by 10-35%, providing a noticeable FPS boost.

Visibility Area Shape Configuration

An option has been added for horizontal stretching of the circular rendering zone, turning it into an ellipse. Increasing this parameter results in fewer remote chunk parts located above or below the player being displayed. For a visual demonstration, simply climb a high mountain or fly up and set the maximum value to 10.

Compatibility and Requirements

Requires Cupboard dependency installation for newer versions. The mod is incompatible with the Very Many Players (VMP) modification. It is installed only on the client side — it is useless on the server.
