About this project
What does Cloudshear Sky Lite add?
Cloudshear Sky Lite is a lightweight client-side Forge mod for Minecraft 1.20.1 that turns clouds off when you join a world.
What it does
- Clouds option set to Off on world join
- Removes the cloud layer rendering cost
What it does not do It does not rewrite the renderer and it does not use mixins. It only changes standard video options that already exist in the game, so the gain depends on your hardware and on what is really slowing your game down. It adds no blocks, items or entities, and it never touches your worlds or saves.
How it works It writes the Clouds video option once per world join. You can still change any option by hand in Video Settings afterwards. Clouds disappear from the sky right after joining.
