No Cubes Reloaded is a client only cosmetic mod for Forge that makes Minecraft look less cubic by smoothing the shape of the blocks

Any changes made to No Cubes Reloaded requires a lot of time, effort and severe headaches. So please be patient and comprehensive

The Fabric version requires Cloth Config API

You can find Cadiboo's NoCubes mod here.

BEWARE

No Cubes Reloaded and Cadiboo's NoCubes Mod are two different mods!

Don't use both at the same time!

To make the mod work better with OptiFine

Altough No Cubes Reloaded is natively compatible with OptiFine, if you plan to use shaders or parallax occlusion mapping or if you get void lines between blocks or bizarre snow, you must :

Stop the game
Open nocubesreloadedlite-client.toml config file
Find the line named texture_mode
Set its value to FULL_TEXTURE instead of the default value
Restart the game
Go to the right OptiFine config menu
You must disable better grass and you can also disable the natural textures
You're ready to go!

To make the mod work better with Rubidium

Stop the game
Open rubidium-mixins.properties config file
Add the following line at the end of the file
mixin.features.chunk_rendering=false
Restart the game

FAQ

What are the differences between No Cubes Reloaded and Cadiboo's NoCubes?

No Cubes Reloaded uses the forge model API to change the way the blocks look.
So it is by default compatible with almost every other mods.

Cadiboo's NoCubes completely overrides the chunk rendering system.
So it may requires patches to work with rendering related mods.

On the other hand, Cadiboo's NoCubes is optimized to improve performances.
So in most cases you will have more FPS using Cadiboo's NoCubes.

Should I use No Cubes Reloaded or Cadiboo's NoCubes?

It is very up to you. If one of those mods gives you some trouble, you can use the other one.

Just make sure to never use both at the same time.

When will No Cubes Reloaded become open source?

It is true that No Cubes Reloaded is not yet open source, but I wanted to make it open source as soon as all of its features will be available and working, in order to give less job to potential forkers.
