by Krixishere

Boosters is a Krixishere optimization mod that throttles distant mob AI, culls off-screen entities and reduces particle counts, for Fabric and NeoForge.

What it does

Boosters lowers the work the game does for things a player is not looking at. Mob AI far from the player is throttled, off-screen entities are culled, and block entities far away tick less often. Sensitive block entities that players would notice when they stop are left out by default, and the exclusion list can be edited in the settings.

The mod also handles particles with a density multiplier and a hard distance cutoff that control how many appear. An F3 overlay shows a live line with how much work the mod is doing per second. The version number is not shown in the game; the mod is confirmed as loaded through its entry in the mod list. It needs Cloth Config API and Fabric API, and Mod Menu is optional for its settings screen. It runs on client and server, and is published for 26.2 – 26.3 on Fabric and NeoForge under the MIT License, and is open source.

Key features

  1. Distant mob AI throttling

    Mobs far from the player update their AI less often, reducing the logic the game runs each tick.

  2. Off-screen culling

    Entities outside the view are culled, so the game does not process them while they cannot be seen.

  3. Block entity throttling

    Block entities far away tick less frequently, while sensitive ones stay excluded by default.

  4. Particle density and distance

    A density multiplier and a hard distance cutoff reduce how many particles spawn.

Questions

Does Boosters need Cloth Config API?

Yes. Cloth Config API is a required dependency, and Fabric API is required on Fabric builds, so both must be installed with Boosters.

Does the server need Boosters?

Yes. Servers that run it need every player to install it too.

Will Boosters match Sodium-level performance?

No. The mod does not rewrite the rendering engine, and its gain depends entirely on the scene, so it does not promise large frame-rate numbers on its own.

Which loaders can run Boosters?

Boosters is published for Fabric and NeoForge. The latest Fabric file is 1.3.4.1-hotfix for 26.3, and the latest NeoForge file is 1.3.2 for 26.2.

What the author says

Hoppers, pistons, beacons, conduits, brewing stands and sculk are excluded by default, since those are the ones where throttling is actually noticeable (stuck items, stuttering pistons).
