by QuicksilverMC

Argentum Extras lets players tune visual and performance settings in the Argentum mod, which it requires, for Ornithe on Minecraft 1.8.9.

What it does

Argentum Extras adds optional controls for rendering, including leaf culling with three levels between Fast and Fancy, particle options, cloud customization and terrain fluid fog density. Camera effects such as dynamic FOV, vignette and hurt camera can each be scaled, and entity model attachments such as equipment, player cosmetics and arrows can be toggled. The mod also exposes world detail settings for the sky, sun, moon and the night sky, and a debug HUD that includes an FPS display.

Argentum is required and must be installed alongside this mod. Its companion options give a player a range of choices between graphics quality and frame rate, so costly effects can be lowered without turning off everything. The mod runs on the client only, so a server does not need it, and it is released under All rights reserved. It is not open source, although public links to the source code and issue tracker exist.
