Not Enough Vulkan
Players who run VulkanMod can use Not Enough Vulkan, a Fabric client mod that adds a settings screen for rendering options alongside it.
What it does
The mod is a fork reworked to focus on improving VulkanMod. Its settings cover animations for fire, water, lava and blocks, particles including those added by other mods, and details such as sky, the sun and moon, and weather. Render options control fog and static entities, while extra options can display FPS, coordinates, toast notifications and clouds.
Beyond the settings, the mod includes compatibility patches that help some mods work better with VulkanMod, along with patches for Bobby and an optional patch for Wayland on Linux. A monitor selector helps when several displays are connected. VulkanMod is required, and Bobby and Fabric API are optional. Files target 1.21.1, and the newest build covers 1.21.1 – 26.1.2. The mod is released under the GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 only and is open source.
