RenderLib
Library for entity rendering
About this Mod
This mod requires MixinBootstrap (curseforge, modrinth) to run!
Mixin 0.7-0.8 Compatibility (curseforge, modrinth) might be helpful when another mod uses an older mixin version and you are thus unable to launch the game.
RenderLib is a client-side only mod that makes necessary changes to entity and tile entity rendering for some of my other mods.
This mod on its own does not provide any meaningful improvements regarding performance and you probably only want to install it when using a mod that has this mod as a dependency.
You might want to check out my mods that have this mod as a dependency
- Entity Culling (curseforge, modrinth) - Skip rendering of entities that are occluded by blocks
- Nothirium (curseforge, modrinth - Greatly improve FPS by using modern OpenGL for chunk rendering
If you want to use RenderLib along TickDynamic then you should check out this fork of TickDynamic which is compatible with RenderLib: Tick Dynamic Continuation (curseforge, modrinth)

Does RenderLib need to be installed on the Minecraft server?
No. Modrinth marks RenderLib 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 RenderLib require?
Use a file for forge and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 1.12.2. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.
RenderLib 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.
