WorldOptimiser

by Pelotrio

WorldOptimiser is a Forge mod that runs a world upgrade automatically when the set of installed mods has changed, so block IDs stay consistent.

What it does

When a world loads, WorldOptimiser hooks into Forge's mod loading events and compares the current mod list with the list saved in the world's NBT data. It reports the changes it detects, such as mods added, removed or updated to another version, and triggers Minecraft's built-in WorldUpgrader only when those changes make an upgrade necessary. Worlds with an unchanged mod list are left alone.

The mod was made to address block ID mismatches that appear in ReplayMod recordings after blocks, models or textures from mods are added or taken away. Before it existed, a player had to fetch the world, open it in singleplayer, optimize it manually and upload it again. WorldOptimiser replaces that process on dedicated and integrated servers alike. It runs on the server alone, so players need nothing extra to join.

Key features

  1. Automatic detection

    Mod additions, removals and version changes are monitored through ModMismatchEvent when the world starts.

  2. Smart optimization

    The world upgrade runs only when actual mod changes are detected, not on every launch.

  3. ReplayMod block IDs

    Changes to the block ID list that cause ReplayMod recordings to show incorrect blocks and textures are corrected during the upgrade.

  4. Chat messages

    Players see messages when the mod detects a change and when it performs the optimization.

Use cases

Content creation servers

Servers that add or remove mods often, and whose players record replays, can keep recordings readable without manual world fixes.

Modpack updates

Updating a modpack that changes blocks, models or textures can be done without reprocessing the world by hand.

Who it’s for: Server owners who change their mod list while players record ReplayMod footage, and modpack maintainers who want block IDs to stay stable across updates.
