⚙️ Features
NeOculus contains all the features of the classic Iris.

  • Performance. Oculus should fully utilize your graphics card when paired with optimization mods like Rubidium.
  • Mod compatibility. Oculus should make a best effort to be compatible with modded environments.
  • Backwards compatibility. All existing ShadersMod / OptiFine shader packs should just work on Iris, without any modifications required.
  • A well-organized codebase. I'd like for working with Iris code to be a pleasant experience overall.

NeOculus has embedded two mods that provides better experience and performance:

Swaying Garden:

  • Applying shader effects to modded plant blocks often requires modifying files in the resource pack, which can be cumbersome and tedious, especially when you want to switch shaders easily. This mod simplifies the process by easily enabling modded plant blocks to sway with shader effects, creating a dynamic and immersive visual experience in your world—whether it's flowers, saplings, or other plant-like blocks.

Accelerated Rendering:

  • Using GPU to accelerate vertex transformation, resulting in several times faster fps when rendering a large number of entities/text/item entities

🚫 Important Note
Please avoid reporting NeOculus' issues on the official Iris Github
