Simulation distance 5->8
Improves vanilla parity with mob spawning. This should not matter if you play on servers. If you play in single player and need the most performance, you can change it back.

Archived mc1.20.4 and mc1.20.6
Based on community feedback in our Discord, I've archived mc1.20.4 and mc1.20.6 to make it easier on me for maintenance. These versions had a significantly smaller amount of downloads than mc1.21.1 did so it didn't make much sense to keep maintaining them. If a lot of people ask for these versions, then I'll probably start supporting them again.
As an example, here is a table of the download counts of each variant of Adrenaline 1.24.0. You can see that 1.20.6 is only 2% and 1.20.4 is 7% of what 1.21.1 has.
| mc(ver) | downloads |
|---|---|
| 1.21.1 | 7.9k |
| 1.20.6 | 208 |
| 1.20.4 | 571 |
| 1.20.1 | 1.3k |
Now supports mc1.21.3 alpha
Keep in mind that this is an very early alpha build of the modpack and you may experience issues. There are quite a few mods missing. If you experience bugs, you may report them on the issue tracker linked further in this changelog. I've uploaded this version first so that it won't be auto-selected in launchers. You should stick with mc1.21.1 for now unless you really need this.
Missing mods
- Noisium
- Lithium
- ThreadTweak
- ModernFix
- Enhanced Block Entities
- EntityCulling
- Sodium Leaf Culling
- ImmediatelyFast
Config changes
- Removed Sodium CPU render-ahead limit override (#43)
- The default value likely works better for the majority of systems. This was supposed to be done a long time ago, but I kept forgetting.
- Adjusted BadOptimizations lightmap updates (#45)
- This makes the lightmap update more often. Should fix the light map darkening looking very jittery and noticeable.
- SLC mode "Solid Aggressive" -> "Solid"
- This should make leaves at the top of trees properly transparent without really any performance difference.
- Clean up Dynamic FPS config
- Removed a lot of unnecessary keys.
