Optimization mods I think should be whitelisted/allowed

26.1.1, although a decently optimized version, probably isnt enough for most people to run it at a comfortable FPS. For my computer (5900x + 4070Ti-S) and with these mods i can run the game at a comparable point to 1.16, but with lowering entity distance (X <= 200%) in the overworld.
I get ~240 fps from lithium + sodium, and ~315 with some of these other mods built in. This is while standing still, moving eats your fps like crazy and with the mods i can get ~210 while without the mods i get around ~160 and with waay more stutters.
Although not a substantial difference on my hardware I think it would be much more beneficial to those with lower-ended computers.

I have not tested or looked further if these change vanilla in a substantial way, nor how much each mod individually contributes to the overall optimization.

badoptimizations is basically useless as far as i know

yes because you cant view more than 32 chunks in vanilla

these 2 make chunk generation much much better, basically playable for lower-end PCs and i really think they should be whitelisted

https://github.com/drouarb/nvidium nvidium is known to be effective

scalablelux is all of the downsides of starlight (minor lighting & generation changes) with none of the upsides (1000x performance improvement), I'm not sure why it's desirable

but running away from src's mod policy is a good thing, probably won't hurt to allow

I really like ixeris, fastnoise is modern noisium. immdiatelyfast and ferrite-core should probably just be legalized. c2me and modernfix are the sketchiest to me, but the general modding community is fine with them I think.

With latest sodium not as much

Its like +20% fps on 32 rd and -10% on lower than 16 rd

Gpu dependent, makes e raying not useless as it became in 26.1, lets you set 32+ rd

About render distance, c2me unlocks it too idk if configs can be locked

Its essential when you're using beta version c2me which lets you generate chunks on gpu because you're gonna be capped at some point without it, in regular uses its like 5% boost i believe

is it still the case that nvidium removes fog

oh this also sounds like it definitely shouldn't be allowed then

Less nether and dragon fog was fixed in 1.21.6 and above
Zintux

The thing you couldnt change

But you can disable entire fog with 1 button in settings once again

oh that's unfortunate, I was under the impression it was less all that

It needs to be done because rn the game is unplayable on lower tier machines. C2M doesn't introduce non vanilla features neither does fast noise.

For context I got an I5 3330 and a GTX1650Ti, without those mods on 16rd 500% ed warmed up graal I still experience 1% drops to like 3 fps - even tho on average the game runs in ~100fps. 32rd is not an option for me, I'm getting max 15fps out of that.

Does graal do something compared to adoptium? Just curious

In theory better JIT, reduced ram usage, beter GC
