Pyre

Pyre is an experimental Minecraft optimization mod focused on reducing client and integrated-server stutter during heavy TNT and explosion situations.

What it does

Pyre optimizes selected explosion-related workload paths to reduce unnecessary repeated work during bursty explosion events.

The goal is to keep normal Minecraft explosion behavior intact while improving smoothness in TNT-heavy scenarios.

Current status

Pyre is currently focused on Minecraft 1.21.11 and is intended for singleplayer and integrated-server use.

This project is still early. Performance gains may vary depending on world size, TNT count, hardware, and installed mods.

Features

• Reduces some overhead during heavy explosion activity
• Focuses on TNT-heavy and chained explosion scenarios
• Keeps gameplay-facing explosion behavior as close to vanilla as possible
• Lightweight implementation
• Designed to avoid changing game balance

Important notes

• Pyre is not a gameplay-changing TNT mod.
• Pyre does not intentionally change explosion power, TNT fuse time, damage, knockback, or block destruction rules.
• Pyre is not a replacement for general optimization mods like Sodium, Lithium, or FerriteCore.
• Compatibility with other optimization mods may vary and should be tested per modpack.

Summary

Pyre aims to make TNT-heavy situations smoother without intentionally changing how vanilla explosions behave.
