Minecraft mod to fix long-standing FPS stability issues.
About this Mod
Minecraft mod to fix long-standing FPS stability issues.
- Implement proper frame pacing when FPS target is limited (due to user setting or being inside a menu):
- Minecraft 1.21.11 and below: Allow FPS to actually reach the target instead of randomly being 5-20 FPS lower.
- Minecraft 26.1 and above: Fix dropping by 1 FPS due to using out-of-date information.
- Get inputs on a separate thread to fix FPS dropping by 2-3x when moving the mouse (especially on high polling rate mice on Windows) due to
glfwPollInputs().

NOTE: You may experience graphical glitches when starting the game or resizing the window - this is intentional, as it would require a ton of work to fix and I want to keep the changes to a minimum to be compatible with other mods.
Compatible with Sodium.
For a version compatible with Ixeris, see Lite FPS.
Recommended settings:
Fullscreen: ON(due to Minecraft usingHardware: Legacy Flipon Windows)VSync: ON(to not waste time rendering frames that won't be shown)- In Vanilla:
Max Framerate: Unlimited(due to Vanilla fps limiter being broken) - With Stable FPS:
Max Framerate: any
NOTE: Some versions of Minecraft have a slow renderer, so you may need to limit your fps further on those.

Does Stable FPS need to be installed on the Minecraft server?
No. Modrinth marks Stable FPS 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 Stable FPS require?
Use a file for fabric, forge, neoforge and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 26.2, 26.1.2, 26.1.1. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.
Stable FPS 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.
