Entity Culling is a relatively small client-side performance core mod which aims to skip rendering of hidden (tile-)entities.
In vanilla it just renders all (tile-)entities which are in the field of view of the player. This means there may be hundreds of (tile-)entities eating your fps while you can't even see them because they are hidden behind a wall.
Culling of hidden Entities
This mod raytraces on another thread to check if a (tile-)entity is visible. Because this method is not 100% accurate for every (tile-)entity which is not considered visible an opengl occlusion test will be made.
This can result in massive fps improvements when a lot of (tile-)entities are not visible. While also only having a minimal overhead when most of the (tile-)entities are visible.
Config options for shadows (when using optifine and a shader with shadows)
This mod also adds some config options to tweak the rendering of shadows when optifine is installed and a shader with shadows is used.
Some shaders might provide config options to tweak the shadow render distance. But the problem is that the shadows of all entities, tile entities and chunks which are considered too far away will still be processed by the cpu and then be thrown away by the shader.
This mod it allows the user to specify max shadow distances for entities, tile entities and the terrain.
Alternatively it also allows to skip the rendering of entity, tile entity or terrain shadows completely.
Known incompatibilities:
Sync - The tile entities from this mod are not rendered completely. It's on their end to fix this.
Pixelmon - The Fossil Machine, Fossil Cleaner, Fossil Display and Infuser are not rendered completely. It's on their end to fix this.
Test with Entity Culling - 1.12.2 - 2.0.8 inside a Roguelike Dungeon shows huge improvements

When using this mod, I experienced weird glitches with Item Frames. When looking at them, they would either flicker in and out of existence, or just not show at all. (Usually this is most effected when closer to the item frames). I'm running Fabric with Sodium and Lithium (not optifine), with a bunch of other small tweak mods.

This is a forge only mod
Does it work with fabric or forge? I really need this mod but it doesn't seem to work with fabric.

hey so how come entity culling 4.0.5 cause extreme lag, like from 200 stable fps to 60 extremely stuttery fps (like stutters every few seconds and each stutter lasts for a few seconds)? while entity culling 4.0.0 helps with fps
In reply to pigporker:
Have you tried the newest version? There was a bug which probably caused some lag in the 1.12 version and also the opengl occlusion query system apparently didn't work well for some users.
In reply to meldexun:
okay i will try the 4.1.1 version and is the 4.1.1 or the 4.0.0 version of entity culling better for fps?
It would be nice to see particle cullling in this mod. I know such mod exist already, but it would be more effective with all optimization methods of your mod, I think.
In reply to lightdimf:
Forge already does it I think.
first i am sorry for my english.
Culling mod is for client side but if i want join to my server it say in menu before i join: "Incompatible FML modded server. Server mod list is not compatible"
if i try join it say: "filed to synchronize registry data from server, closing connection" and in console: "[23:18:07] [Server thread/INFO] [minecraft/ServerLoginNetHandler]: com.mojang.authlib.GameProfile@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx,name=Foxsyl,properties={textures=[com.mojang.authlib.properties.Property@xxxxxxxx]},legacy=false] (/xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx ip i belive) lost connection: Disconnected"
i try other client cide mods and it is this same but without this mod is laging and i have low fps because i have every dungeon mod, maby someone know what i need to do plese help
(xxxxx) = blurred my data i think
In reply to Foxsyl_YT:
Either open a new issue on github (https://github.com/Meldexun/EntityCulling/issues) and upload the client AND the server log.
Or use something like pastebin and upload the client AND server log there and send the links here.
Hey meldexun!
So I've just downloaded the latest version for 1.12.2
I've got around 83 mods installed, including optifine G5 (and some other performance mod like phosphor, vanillafix, foamfix, betterfps and surge)
For me, this was the mod I absolutely absolutely needed, but as weird and as dissapointing as it sounds, for some odd reason it cutted down my FPS by 20 instead. I really dont understand why, it doesn't make any sense at all.
The mod works perfectly as intended, I tried checking the entities on spectator mode. But while looking on a dense foliage area, without the mod I get around 40 while with the mod I get 20. I've tested it multiple times and even tried it without the optimization mods. The only thing that comes in my mind is maybe the tracing mechanic is heavy? I dont really know.
Any ideas or workarounds?
Thanks!
In reply to 0godhelp0:
What hardware are you using?
The best way to check the performance would be:
- install entity culling
- start the game
- join a world and stand in front of whatever scenery you want to test
- press f3 to open the debug screen
- press esc to prevent entities from moving
- wait 30-60 seconds and make a screenshot
- open the ingame config and disable entity culling
- wait 30-60 seconds and make a screenshot
In reply to 0godhelp0:
mmm, at least in my experience, BetterFPS is like a lottery game, sometimes it helps but in some cases it fucks the performance, try remove it and see if the issue persist

I need the complete crash report. Also a log would be good too.
And I would appreciate it if you could create an issue on github
Will Entity culling version 1.16.5-2.0.0 ever be compatible with optifine G8?
In reply to gotyournose006:
G8 is a preview, so once it isn't...
Is there any way to make this mod not cause the red X for being only in the client mod folder and not in server mod folder?
In reply to GregD:
Will be fixed in the future. But since this can be ignored easily there probably won't be a new release soon just to fix this.
