About this project

What does Wayland Fix add?

Fixes Minecraft and Iris Shaders startup crashes on Linux Wayland with NVIDIA graphics cards by automatically applying the required OpenGL compatibility workarounds. No launcher configuration needed. This is useful if you dont have acess to a x11 environment (example: using modern Linux distros).

Tested on Boosted FPS Fabric modpack with Ubuntu 26.10 running Wayland DE with Nvidia GPU RTX 4060 running Minecraft 26.3.

Fully Client-side mod. No server requirement.
