# IMPORTANT NOTICE: Graphics Engine & Compatibility (Read Before Installing)

The primary goal of this modpack remains unchanged: delivering maximum performance by running Minecraft on the Vulkan Graphics API. However, the system architecture has been completely modernized for version 26. 2 and above to ensure flawless stability.

### For Minecraft 26. 2 and Above - Native Vulkan Automation: The standalone VulkanMod has been removed. We removed it because Sodium now officially supports Vulkan via Minecraft's new native graphics API selection. The modpack is fully pre-configured to automatically shift your game to the Vulkan engine immediately upon launch. - Superior Performance: By shifting the workload to Sodium a highly popular, industry standard optimization mod you will experience significantly better frame rates. This change also completely eliminates the frequent crashes and mod conflicts previously caused by the outdated Vulkan wrapper mod. - Iris Shaders Incompatibility: Please note that Iris Shaders will not function while Minecraft is running on the native Vulkan engine. If you intend to use shaders, you must manually switch the game's graphics API option away from Vulkan to OpenGL.

### For Minecraft 1. 19. 4 to 1. 21. 11 - ### Legacy Support: Older versions of the modpack will continue to use the standalone VulkanMod to force the Vulkan engine, as legacy Minecraft base versions and older Sodium releases lack native graphics API selection features. ###

## Technical Features

The primary objective of this modpack is to deliver a massive FPS boost by fully utilizing modern Vulkan optimization frameworks instead of the legacy OpenGL renderer. This architectural shift drastically reduces hardware overhead, eliminating annoying micro-stutters and sudden lag spikes during active gameplay.

Furthermore, the optimizations ensure significantly faster world loading times and rapid chunk rendering. By reducing input delay to the absolute minimum, the game becomes highly responsive. The entire pack remains strictly lightweight, focusing solely on performance-driven system adjustments with zero bloatware or unnecessary modifications.
