VulkanMod is a Fabric mod for Minecraft that replaces the default OpenGL renderer with a custom Vulkan-based voxel rendering engine. It aims to reduce CPU and GPU overhead while adding rendering optimizations and features like native Wayland support.
Use cases
- improve minecraft fps with a vulkan renderer
- replace minecraft's opengl renderer with vulkan
- reduce cpu and gpu overhead in minecraft
- run minecraft natively on wayland
- optimize chunk and entity rendering in minecraft
- get better performance on modern gpus in minecraft
When to choose
- you want higher framerates and lower CPU overhead in Minecraft
- you are on Linux and want native Wayland support
- your GPU and drivers have good Vulkan support
- you want modern rendering features not possible with OpenGL
When to avoid
- you rely on OptiFine or Iris shader packs without the Beryl companion mod
- your hardware or drivers lack solid Vulkan support
- you need maximum mod compatibility, since renderer-replacing mods can conflict with other rendering mods
