AcceleratedRendering-Ported

Vanilla Minecraft applies matrix transformations to every vertex on the CPU when it renders entity models, and in scenes with many entities that work becomes a bottleneck. The mod intercepts those rendering calls, builds geometry data for the GPU, and caches vertex transformations there using a compute shader. Batched draw calls are then submitted, which reduces the CPU-side overhead.

The acceleration scope covers entity models, entity shadows, dropped items, held items, world block models, text rendering through BakedGlyph, and GUI container screens, where fills, blits and slots are batched. Selective filtering lets a player exclude specific types of entities, block entities or containers from acceleration. Acceleration of first-person hand items is also available, though the mod notes that this path still shows perspective stretching and is reverted to vanilla pending runtime debugging.

The mod is client-side only and is distributed for Fabric alone, with files for 1.21.4 and 26.1 and MIT License terms, though the code is not open source in the strict sense of the license set. Fabric API and Forge Config API Port must be installed alongside it. Configuration is available through an in-game screen opened from ModMenu, where acceleration can be toggled per render type, the accelerated pipeline switched, and the allow and block lists edited.
