Vault Render Optimization

0.3.2 - Release Candidate

New since 0.3.0

• Reduced retained model and block-state cache memory with two post-FerriteCore 4.2.2 compaction improvements.
• Added vertical terrain-section culling, enabled by default at 12 sections above and below the camera. Optional horizontal culling remains off by default.
• Added an optional spatial dynamic-light engine for held and dropped items, luminous entities, and resource-defined block entities. It is off by default.
• Added /vro culling and /vro lights controls with saved client settings.

Fixes

• Prevented Vault elixir-orb number rendering from corrupting later particle colors.
• Preserved Powah world-cache cleanup without crashing during client exit.

Compatibility

• Terrain culling supports vanilla and Embeddium/Rubidium renderers without changing chunk loading or Distant Horizons storage.
• VRO yields terrain culling to Better Fps - Render Distance and dynamic lighting to Dynamic Lights Reforged when those mods are installed.
• One client-only JAR continues to support official, Remastered, Wolds, and selected custom Vault Hunters 1.18.2 baselines.

No server installation, world migration, or cache deletion is required.
