About this Mod

Cull Clouds

Fabric mod that adds a small optimization improves clouds building way to not render parts which you cant see to increase fps

Works only with "Fancy" clouds

Why is this mod not updating?

Sodium has added the functionality of this mod in new versions, so, I think updates of this mod are no longer needed

And also, the mod gives too small increase in fps to develop it further, I don't know why people would need it, because as it says a bit above of the fps comparison picture, the mod usually only gives +1 fps if you play in normal scenarios

Compatibility

This mod has compatibility issues, I tested it with two mods:

Extended Clouds - does not run with Cull Clouds

SuperFancyClouds - runs, but Cull Clouds does nothing

The list of incompatibilities may grow, because in order to improve the vanilla clouds, Cull Clouds is essentially rewriting it

Performance

Here's a comparison of fps between Vanilla and Cull Clouds

If you're not playing on a flat world, the increase may be very small, something like a 1-2 fps difference

Frequently Asked Questions

Does Cull Clouds need to be installed on the Minecraft server?

No. Modrinth marks Cull Clouds as unsupported on the server side. Install it only in your local Minecraft mods folder. Your server can remain unchanged unless the mod page lists an additional dependency.

Which version and loader does Cull Clouds require?

Use a file for fabric, quilt and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 1.19.2, 1.19.2-rc2, 1.19.2-rc1. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.

Cull Clouds is not working – what should I check?

First check the Minecraft version, loader version and required dependencies. Put the .jar file in your local .minecraft/mods folder and remove older duplicates. Because this mod is client-side, adding server RAM will not fix it.
