Notes

• This is a primarily client-side modpack and should work on most vanilla or Fabric servers.
• Always follow the rules of the server you are joining.
• Shader performance, LOD distance, and memory usage depend on your PC hardware.
• Distant Horizons may temporarily affect performance while generating LOD data in unexplored areas.
