vulkan-create-compatibility
by Nik121
vulkan-create-compatibility is a Fabric client mod that fixes framebuffer crashes when VulkanMod and Create run together.
What it does
The mod addresses crashes that occur when VulkanMod and Create are both loaded on Fabric. The crashes come from remapping framebuffer attachments that use depth or stencil formats Vulkan does not support, which the mod works around. It needs Create Fabric and VulkanMod to be installed alongside it. Only the client needs it, so servers run without it. Builds exist for 1.20.1, 1.21.10 and 1.21.11, with 14.0.0 for 1.20.1 as the latest file, under a custom license that is not open source.
Key features
Framebuffer remapping fix
Corrects how framebuffer attachments are remapped when Create and VulkanMod are both active on Fabric.
Depth and stencil format handling
Addresses depth and stencil format incompatibilities, including the format codes reported as 36013 and 34041.
Client-side operation
Runs only on the client, so players install it without any server-side change.
