ResolutionControl+
Allows you to set render resolutions and take large screenshots.
About this Mod
ResolutionControl+
ResolutionControl+ is a fork of Resolution Control
with additional functionality.
Features
Resolution Scaling
ResolutionControl+ allows you to change Minecraft's render resolution separately from the HUD elements.
If you have a good GPU, you can increase the multiplier for anti-aliasing.
Otherwise, you can lower the multiplier to improve performance or give Minecraft a retro style.
You can also set a custom multiplier value by pressing the S button.
Additionally, you can set the upscale/downscale algorithm used to scale the render to the viewport.
Linear is useful as an anti-aliasing filter,
and nearest neighbor generally looks better for lower than native resolutions.

Screenshots
ResolutionControl+ can be used to take larger than native resolution screenshots.
To do this, use the Screenshot Framebuffer keybind which is unbound by default.
Compared to Fabrishot, this implementation does not lock up the game until the screenshot is saved.
This makes taking large screenshots much faster.
And while a screenshot is being processed, you can take another one without any problems.
Here is the time it takes to take a 16k screenshot, on an i7 4770 and GTX 1060:
Fabrishot: 12 seconds (pause)
ResolutionControl+: <1 second (initial pause) + 13 seconds (background processing)

Does ResolutionControl+ need to be installed on the Minecraft server?
No. Modrinth marks ResolutionControl+ 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 ResolutionControl+ require?
Use a file for fabric and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 1.20.4, 1.20.3, 1.20.2. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.
ResolutionControl+ 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.
