About this Mod
A lightweight client-side FPS optimization mod for Minecraft 1.21.11 (Fabric).
When large amounts of the same item are dropped on the ground in a pile β like after a mob farm, bulk crafting, or a death β Minecraft renders every single item entity individually, which can tank your FPS. StackCluster fixes this by detecting clusters of the same item and hiding a configurable percentage of them visually. The items still exist and can be picked up normally β they're just not rendered.
Features:
Fully client-side β works on any server, no server-side install needed
Configurable cluster radius (how far to search for same-type items)
Configurable minimum cluster size (how many items trigger culling)
Configurable cull percentage (how many items in a cluster to hide)
Master on/off toggle
In-game config screen via ModMenu + Cloth Config
Requirements:
Fabric Loader 0.19+
Fabric API
Cloth Config
ModMenu (optional, for in-game config screen)
Performance tip: The default settings (3 block radius, min 3 items, 90% culled) are conservative. For mob farms or bulk item drops, try radius 5-6 and 95% cull for maximum FPS gains.

Does StackCluster Optimizer need to be installed on the Minecraft server?
No. Modrinth marks StackCluster Optimizer 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 StackCluster Optimizer require?
Use a file for fabric and your exact Minecraft version. Supported versions include 1.21.11. Files for different loaders are not interchangeable.
StackCluster Optimizer is not working β 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.
