Clumps

Groups XP orbs that are close together into a single larger orb — reducing entity count and improving performance around XP farms.

Sodium

A complete rewrite of Minecraft's rendering engine that dramatically improves frame rate — typically 2–5× better FPS than vanilla, especially on modern hardware.

Lithium

Optimises Minecraft's game logic — pathfinding, ticking, chunk generation, and physics — without changing any gameplay behaviour.

Iris Shaders

Adds shader pack support to Sodium — install any compatible shader pack and get beautiful shadows, lighting, water reflections, and volumetric fog.

Entity Culling

Stops rendering entities (mobs, items, players) that are blocked from view behind walls — a common source of FPS loss in busy areas.

FerriteCore

Reduces Minecraft's RAM usage significantly by optimising how block state and other data is stored in memory.

ModernFix

A comprehensive performance improvement and bug-fix mod that addresses dozens of Minecraft inefficiencies — improves startup time, memory usage, and in-game performance.

Dynamic FPS

Reduces Minecraft's frame rate (and CPU/GPU usage) when the window is minimised or you're tabbed out — so it doesn't drain resources while you're doing something else.

Entity Model Features

Adds support for custom entity model variants defined in resource packs — enables mods and packs to give mobs unique model variations.

Entity Texture Features

Adds random and biome-specific texture variation to mobs — cows in different colours, cats with varied markings, and much more visual diversity.

Not Enough Animations

Adds smooth first-person animations for eating, drinking, reading maps, and more — making your character feel more alive in first-person view.

Visuality

Adds small visual polish effects — hit particles on mobs, sparkles on enchanted items, ripples in rain, and other atmospheric touches.

Subtle Effects

Adds gentle ambient visual effects — pollen particles in meadows, steam over lava, fireflies at night — without the performance cost of shader packs.

Chat Animation

Adds a smooth slide-in animation to chat messages instead of them appearing instantly — a small but polished UI detail.

Continuity

Adds connected texture support — glass panes and other blocks connect seamlessly without the dark frame line in the middle when placed next to each other.

Blur

Blurs the game world behind any open GUI (inventory, chest, etc.) — reduces visual noise and makes menus easier to read.

Chat Heads

Shows a small player head avatar next to each chat message so you can quickly see who's talking at a glance.

Ambient Sounds

Adds rich, layered ambient audio to every biome — wind in deserts, bird calls in forests, deep rumbling in caves — making the world feel genuinely alive.

Reese's Sodium Options

Improves the Sodium video settings screen with a better layout and more accessible options — making it easier to tune your graphics settings.

Alternate Current

A highly optimised redstone engine that makes redstone signals propagate faster and with less lag — identical behaviour to vanilla, just much more efficient.

Noisium

Optimises world generation noise calculations, making new chunk generation faster — reduces the lag spike when entering new areas.

Smooth Chunk Save

Spreads chunk saving work out more smoothly so the server can save world data with fewer lag spikes during normal play.

Structure Essentials

Improves structure generation and structure searching behavior with safer placement checks, better locating, and compatibility-focused structure utilities.
