Noisium

Noisium significantly speeds up world generation in Minecraft, offering unique optimizations that are not addressed by other popular performance enhancement mods.

Key Improvements

The main focus is on optimizing the NoiseChunkGenerator#populateNoise function, which handles block placement when creating new chunks. Instead of using Minecraft's standard methods, Noisium directly sets block states in the palette storage, eliminating unnecessary calculations that slow down the world generation process.

Additionally, the mod includes three important optimizations:

• Acceleration of biome population
• Increased block state sampling speed
• Optimization of chunk unlocking (for Minecraft version 1.21 and above)

Compatibility and Performance

Noisium is fully compatible with vanilla world generation and maintains 100% identical results. The mod works excellently alongside popular optimization mods such as C2ME, Lithium, Nvidium, and Sodium, filling the optimization gaps they leave.

When used together with C2ME, each world generation thread runs significantly faster. For the Distant Horizons mod, the optimization speeds up LOD chunk generation since it depends on Minecraft's standard world generation speed.

Performance varies from several seconds to dozens of seconds of time savings depending on the number of chunks generated.

Technical Features

The mod supports Fabric, Quilt, Forge, and NeoForge modloaders. It operates on the server side but is also compatible with the client for single-player and local network play. Compatible with Minecraft versions 1.20.x and above.
