Wind Charge Optimizer
by Sonionring
Wind Charge Optimizer changes how wind charge throws appear on the client, so a throw shows up without waiting for the server to echo it back.
What it does
The mod shows a thrown wind charge to the player at once instead of after the server's reply, which makes throws feel more responsive when latency is high. Only the visual side changes: the server still decides the real wind charge behavior, including knockback, explosions, boosts and throwing cooldowns, and the server can disable the optimizer if it wants players to play without it.
Silicon is required, and the mod is installed on Fabric only. Players add it to their own game, and a server needs no copy. Files are published for 16 release versions across 1.21 – 26.2, and the latest Fabric file, 26.1.X+26.2 for 26.2, was released on 2026-06-30. The mod is not open source and is released under All rights reserved.
Key features
Instant throw display
A thrown wind charge is drawn on the client immediately, instead of waiting for the server to show it first.
Server keeps control
Knockback, explosion strength and wind charge boosts stay handled by the server, so only the visual timing changes.
Smoother high-ping play
The gain is most noticeable on connections with high ping, where delayed throws otherwise look uneven.

How it compares
No Wind Charge Cooldown is a server-required mod that also supports Forge, NeoForge and Quilt, under the MIT License, for 1.21.2 – 26.3. It changes cooldowns rather than the display, so it has a different purpose. Mace Optimizer is a client-side Fabric mod under All rights reserved, for 1.21 – 26.2, and it covers the mace rather than wind charges.

What the author says
Makes wind charges feel more instant and responsive on the client side The server still controls the real wind charge, this mod only makes the wind charge show faster visually so using wind charges feels smoother especially when you have ping
