More Vulkan

This modpack replaces the rendering engine with Vulkan, which is more efficient than both OpenGL or Sodium on modern hardware. Along with extra optimizations.

Quick answer

Which More Vulkan release should I use?

Updated today
Latest stable file More Vulkan 1.2.5
Game version 1.21.11
Loader Fabric 0.19.3

More Vulkan 1.2.5 is a complete pack release for 1.21.11 with Fabric 0.19.3. Install it as its own launcher instance. If the creator publishes a separate server file, make sure it names this exact pack release. 32 mods in this pack file.

Pack setup

How should I set up More Vulkan for players and a server?

Use More Vulkan 1.2.5 as the pack version. Install the pack as its own launcher instance. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file, so check the release notes before setting up a dedicated server. Do not upload the ordinary client folder blindly.

Client instance Install More Vulkan 1.2.5
Dedicated server setup Match More Vulkan 1.2.5
Pack loader Fabric 0.19.3

A pack is a matched client and server setup, not one mod with an install-side label. Keep its release, loader, manifest and overrides together.

Referenced mods 32
Client only 19
Server only 0
Not labelled 13

These numbers come from the pack file you chose. “Not labelled” means we don’t know which side it belongs on—not that it is safe everywhere. The file count is not a RAM estimate.

What are the server requirements for More Vulkan?

More Vulkan 1.2.5. Change the pack release and its contents or setup may change too.

32 mods in this pack file

The selected pack release is More Vulkan 1.2.5. That file is for Minecraft 1.21.11 with Fabric 0.19.3. It contains 32 mod projects. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file. Check their notes before using one, and do not upload an ordinary client folder or rebuild the pack mod by mod. A file count cannot tell us the right RAM, CPU or storage; size the server for the players and world you actually run.

About this project

What kind of pack is More Vulkan?

This modpack aims to increase performance by replacing Minecraft's laughably inefficient rendering engine, OpenGL, with a more modern approach: Vulkan. This can increase your performance by upwards of 100% depending on your hardware, especially when paired with other popular optimization mods like Lithium!

  • Although Vulkan IS coming to Java Edition natively, VulkanMod is still far better than native Vulkan as of right now especially when paired with a suite of 20+ performance mods and small QoL tweaks like 3D Skin Layers, Zoomify, Chat Heads, and Chat Animations.

Performance Results (Based on my hardware configuration):

  • 920 FPS without More Vulkan (and not as stable)
  • 2000+ FPS with More Vulkan (and it is much more stable)

These results were achieved on a setup featuring an RTX 5060, Intel Core Ultra 5 225F, and 6GB of RAM allocated to Minecraft. Tested on Windows 11 with Nvidia drivers 596.21.

Simple FAQ

  • Will downports be coming? Not for versions below 1.21.11.
  • Is this modpack going to stay updated? It depends on how much free time I have and how well the pack performs for others.
