Cullify

# 🍃 What is Cullify? **Cullify** is a client-side mod that culls decorative vegetation blocks (such as grass, flowers, ferns, algae, and kelp) based on distance from the player and customizable geometric shapes. By preventing distant or non-visible vegetation blocks from rendering, it reduces rendering load (vertex throughput and draw calls) without altering or removing the actual blocks in the world. !(https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/9084d66f66c7768b4062be0b7a1b21c03b2c4f3b_0.webp) ## ✨ Features * ⚙️ **Vegetation Culling** — Reduces rendering load by hiding vegetation blocks that are beyond a configured distance. * 📐 **8 Geometric Culling Shapes** — Customizable boundaries to control culling behavior around the player. * 📉 **LOD Density Filter** — Deterministic, hash-based density filtering that thins out outer vegetation (75%, 50%, or 25%) to save CPU overhead near the boundary. * 🌿 **Double-Tall Vegetation Support** — Synchronizes culling between the bottom and top halves of double-tall blocks (like sunflowers or tall grass) to prevent visual discrepancies. * ⚙️ **In-Game Config Menu** — A configuration screen accessible via the `K` keybind, chat commands, or the NeoForge mods menu. * 📊 **Real-Time Statistics HUD** — On-screen overlay tracking culled blocks, water replacements, chunk updates, and draw calls. * 🧪 **Native Sodium Compatibility** — Direct hooks into Sodium's internal LevelSlice rendering pipeline and Sodium Options API. ## 📐 Geometric Culling Shapes Unlike traditional culling mods, Cullify offers flexible mathematical boundary checks on both the horizontal plane (X/Z) and the vertical axis (Y): | Icon | Shape | Geometry Mode | Description | | :---: | :--- | :--- | :--- | | 🟢 | **Sphere** | 3D Sphere | Culls blocks outside a 3D spherical radius. | | 🌀 | **Cylinder** | Cylinder | Culls blocks outside a horizontal circular radius (infinite Y). | | 📦 | **Box** | 3D Box | Culls blocks outside a 3D cubical bounding box. | | 🔺 | **Triangle** | Triangle | Culls blocks outside an equilateral triangular boundary centered on the player. | | ⬡ | **Hexagon** | Hexagon | Culls blocks outside a hexagonal boundary. | | ⭐ | **Star** | Star | Culls blocks outside a 6-point star (union of two intersecting triangles). | | ⏹️ | **Square** | Square | Culls blocks outside a flat square grid. | | 🔵 | **Circle** | Circle | Culls blocks outside a flat horizontal circular boundary. | ## 🎮 Controls & Commands Configuring and inspecting Cullify in-game is straightforward: ### ⌨️ Keybinds * `K` — Opens the custom Cullify GUI Config Screen. ### 💬 Chat Commands * `/cullify menu` — Opens the configuration GUI menu. * `/cullify benchmark` — Performs a benchmark of the mod and displays the results in chat. * `/cullify debug` — Toggles the real-time statistics HUD overlay. * `/cullify stats` — Prints current performance statistics directly into the chat. * `/cullify verbose` — Toggles verbose logging for debugging. * `/cullify reload` — Forces a complete reload of the client level renderer chunks. ## 🔌 Compatibility & Requirements * **Sodium / Embeddium:** Fully integrated. Hooks directly into Sodium's internal LevelSlice rendering pipeline to batch-cull blocks in MDI (*Multi-Draw Indirect*) buffers. The Culling Shape options and configurations are also registered directly inside Sodium's Video Settings menu! * **Vanilla Renderer:** Fallback compatibility included for the standard Minecraft block rendering pipeline. * **🔒 100% Client-Side:** This mod runs entirely on your client. You can join any server (Vanilla, Spigot, Forge, Paper, etc.) without any issues! ## 📄 License & Modpack Usage This mod is available under the **GNU General Public License v3 (GPL-3.0)**. > 📦 **Modpack Permissions:** Feel free to include Cullify in any of your modpacks on CurseForge, Modrinth, or private launchers!
