✨ Visual Experience

ZytheraCraft supports shaders and visual enhancement mods for players who want a more cinematic experience.

Shaders can completely transform the atmosphere of exploration, dimensions, forests, dungeons and boss encounters.

For lower-end PCs, shaders can be disabled without affecting gameplay.

⚡ Performance

ZytheraCraft includes several optimization mods to help a large 1.16.5 modpack run more smoothly.

Some of the included performance mods are:

- Embeddium
- ModernFix
- FerriteCore
- Entity Culling
- Starlight
- Memory Leak Fix
- Dynamic FPS
- Lightspeed

Performance will still depend heavily on your hardware, active shaders, render distance and the amount of entities or structures nearby.

⚙️ Recommended Settings

Choose settings according to your computer.

🚀 High-End PCs

- Graphics: Fancy
- Leaves: Fancy
- Particles: All
- Shaders: High / Ultra
- Render Distance: 10–14 chunks

⚡ Mid-Range PCs

- Graphics: Fast
- Leaves: Fast

🛠️ Low-End PCs

- Graphics: Fast

For the best experience:

Recommended RAM allocation: 9–10 GB

Do not allocate all of your computer's available RAM to Minecraft.
