About this project

What does Noisiumed add?

Noisiumed

A maintained fork of Noisium by Steveplays28

The original project is archived and no longer maintained. This fork exists to keep it working and to apply small fixes/updates where necessary. It also offers a version not currently supported by any of the other forks.


What Does This Mod Do?

Noisiumed speeds up terrain generation by optimizing the internal processes Minecraft uses when creating new chunks. Whether you're exploring a new world, using Distant Horizons to render LODs, or running a server, this mod reduces the time spent generating terrain.

Key Optimizations

  • Faster block placement – Writes directly to chunk palette storage, skipping unnecessary overhead
  • Improved biome population – Optimizes memory access patterns during biome assignment
  • Cached calculations – Stores frequently-used generation values instead of recomputing them
  • Streamlined chunk locking – Reduces synchronization overhead during noise population

World Generation Parity

This mod produces identical worlds to vanilla Minecraft. No blocks, biomes, or structures are changed—only the speed at which they're generated.

Compatibility

✅ Works alongside most performance mods including C2ME, Lithium, Sodium, and Nvidium   ✅ Compatible with Distant Horizons (speeds up LOD generation)   ✅ Works with terrain mods like ReTerraForged  

⚠️ Known incompatibility: Biospherical Expansion (BioX)

Installation

Drop the JAR into your mods folder. No configuration needed.   This is a server-side mod—only the server (or singleplayer host) needs it installed.
