About this Mod
Renderer
An easy to use rendering library for modern fabric
Installing
You can install this library using Jitpack
To install the library, just add the jitpack repository to your repositories block as described on the website, and this to your dependencies block in build.gradle:
include modImplementation("com.github.0x3C50:Renderer:master-SNAPSHOT")
This will use the latest commit as build target, but will cache that build target every time. Use the latest short commit hash found on Jitpack (example: d2cc995ff4) as the version, to get that release instead.
Usage
The api has an extensive javadoc, which explains almost anything. The wiki also has some more insights and examples.
The two renderers
Renderer2d draws in 2 dimensions, on the hud. Renderer3d draws in 3 dimensions, in the world.
Events
This library has its own event system, which broadcasts some basic rendering events (hud render, world render, etc). You can find more information on the wiki
Suggestions
You can leave suggestions in the issues section
If this library helped you, please consider leaving a star, since this library took me a while to make as it is right now :)
Examples
More examples can be found in RendererClient.
class Listener {
void main() {
Events.manager.registerSubscribers(this);
}
@MessageSubscription
void onWorldRendered(RenderEvent.World world) {
// Quad at (0, 0, 0):
Renderer3d.renderFilled(world.getMatrixStack(), Color.RED, Vec3d.ZERO, new Vec3d(1, 1, 1));
// Quad outline at (0, 0, 0):
Renderer3d.renderOutline(world.getMatrixStack(), Color.RED, Vec3d.ZERO, new Vec3d(1, 1, 1));
}
@MessageSubscription
void onHudRendered(RenderEvent.Hud hud) {
// Rounded quad at (50, 50 -> 100, 100), 5 px corner, 10 samples
Renderer2d.renderRoundedQuad(RendererUtil.getEmptyMatrixStack(), Color.WHITE, 50, 50, 100, 100, 5, 10);
}
}

4 GB(min. 3 GB)Frequently Asked Questions
Renderer server crashes on startup – what to do?
Most common cause: wrong fabric version or insufficient RAM. Check the server log (latest.log) for "OutOfMemoryError" or "Mixin" errors. With Mado Hosting: ensure at least 3 GB RAM is allocated and the loader matches the mod version (1.20.4). You can switch loaders with one click in the panel.
Is Renderer compatible with fabric?
Renderer officially supports fabric for Minecraft 1.20.4, 1.20.3, 1.20.2. The Mado dashboard automatically detects incompatible loader combinations.
Server lagging with Renderer – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Renderer consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
