Neodymium [BTW Addon]
by Arminias
Neodymium [BTW Addon] reimplements chunk rendering for Minecraft 1.6.4 using modern OpenGL features, and it requires Better Than Wolves: CE.
What it does
Chunk rendering is rebuilt on newer OpenGL capabilities, which the author describes as a way to improve frame performance on most hardware. The addon is a Legacy Fabric port for Minecraft 1.6.4 only, and the latest file, 0.3.3+BTW3.0, was published on 2026-01-25. Better Than Wolves: CE must be installed alongside it. The environment is client-side only, so servers do not need the addon, and the code is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 or later as open source.
