ZeroVisuals
by mooncode2
ZeroVisuals is a Fabric client mod in the Optimization category, with Decoration and Utility also listed, and it needs only Fabric API for 1.21.11.
What it does
Only the client needs ZeroVisuals, so players install it while servers can run without it. It is open source under the GNU General Public License v3.0 only, and the license requires that anyone who distributes a modified version publishes its source code. The project has a public source repository and an issue tracker. Fabric API must be installed alongside it, and Sodium is an optional companion.
Key features
Visual settings
The mod changes how the game's visuals are drawn on the client, as its Optimization category suggests.
Client-side drawing
Changes apply only on the player's own screen, so the server's rendering and world data stay untouched.
Optional Sodium pairing
Sodium can be installed alongside ZeroVisuals, and it is listed as an optional companion rather than a requirement.
