Smoothie Mod
by grim13th
When a player's connection is unstable, Smoothie Mod smooths how their movement is drawn so it stays fluid on screen.
What it does
Jittery position updates that arrive out of rhythm make a laggy player look like they are teleporting or rubber-banding in vanilla Minecraft. Smoothie Mod changes how the game interpolates those positions between updates, so movement stays fluid on screen. Only the client needs it, and servers run without it. The code is open source under the MIT License, and Fabric files are published for 1.21 – 26.2.
Key features
Smoothed remote movement
Other players who stutter because of a poor connection are drawn with steadier motion instead of choppy jumps.
Adjusted interpolation
The mod alters how the game interpolates position between network updates, which removes the stop-and-start look.
Fluid rendering on laggy links
Movement keeps a continuous path even when updates arrive irregularly, reducing visible rubber-banding.

Smoothie Mod removes the choppy, stuttering movement you see from laggy players. When someone's connection is jittery or their position updates arrive irregularly, vanilla Minecraft makes them look like they're teleporting and rubber-banding around.
