Eternal Render
Eternal Render, a Project Eternal module, adjusts Render Distance and entity render distance during play by watching game performance.
What it does
While enabled, Eternal Render monitors performance and can change rendering-related settings automatically. When frame rate drops, it lowers the rendering load; when headroom appears, it can raise the values up to the limits the mod sets. The F8 key turns it on or off.
Eternal Render needs Fabric Loader and Fabric API on Fabric, and it is also published for Forge. Only the client needs it, so servers run without it. Its optional dependency is Eternal FPS, and it works alongside the other Project Eternal modules, which can be used together.
Files cover game versions 1.21.10 – 26.3, with 2.0.0 for 26.3 as the latest build on both loaders. The code is released under the MIT License, but the mod is not open source.

Higher limits when headroom exists
With spare performance, the mod can allow higher values, but only within limits it defines.

How it compares
Hold That Chunk V2 is a Fabric client mod under the MIT License, open source, for 1.21 – 26.3, and it holds chunks rather than adjusting render distance by performance. Toggle Render Distance covers only 1.21.8 and carries a custom license, so it is not open source.
