CrossTie

🛠️ CrossTie

Comprehensive optimization and compatibility patch Mod for RTM (RealTrainMod) on Minecraft 1.7.10.

---

📝 Project Overview

CrossTie provides rendering load reduction, update frequency suppression, and compatibility fixes across multiple Mods—such as RTM / NGTLib / MCTE (KaizPatchX), Angelica, Bamboo, IntelliInput, GTNHLib, Hodgepodge, and LiteLoader / Macro / Keybind Mod—all within a single JAR.

💡 Auto-Detection: Target Mods are automatically detected at startup, and corresponding patches are enabled only if they are present.

⚡ What it does

CrossTie solves the following three core problems that occur between RTM-related Mods and performance-enhancing Mods.

1. 🏃 FPS Optimization
   • Rendering culling, update frequency suppression, and switching to immediate rendering.
2. ⏳ TPS Optimization
   • Thinning updates for Entities and TileEntities.
3. 🤝 Compatibility Fixes
   • Resolving display list conflicts between Angelica and RTM.
   • Redirecting GL calls.
   • Avoiding class loader conflicts between Mods.

🏗️ Architecture

CrossTie features a 3-layer patch mechanism, intervening safely at the appropriate phase.

1. ASM CoreMod (CrossTieCorePlugin)

Runs as an IFMLLoadingPlugin in the earliest phase immediately after Minecraft starts.

• ModDetector: Scans the mods/ folder and automatically detects installed Mods from JAR/ZIP/litemod filenames.
• MinFo Detection + Angelica Auto-Adjustment: If MinFo is detected, it forcibly rewrites B:enableFontRenderer to false in config/angelica-modules.cfg.

2. ASM Class Transformer (CrossTieClassTransformer)

Directly rewrites bytecode during class loading, before the Mixin phase. This completely avoids "loading order issues" and MixinTargetAlreadyLoadedException that Mixins cannot handle.

Target Class / Method	Content
GTNHLib 0.9.x MixinBlock_IconWrapper	Redirects nhlib$getParticleIcon to GtnhLibIconCompat
Angelica CTM MixinRenderBlocks	Redirects glass pane icon resolution (e.g., tweakPaneIcons) to AngelicaPaneIconCompat
MCPatcher GlassPaneRenderer	Replaces setupIcons with return false
Hodgepodge StringPooler$GuavaPooler	Replaces getString(s) with s.intern() (Avoids Guava class loader conflicts)
NGTLib/RTM ScriptUtil	Replaces doScript(String) with ScriptUtilFallback.doScript(String) (Support for environments without Nashorn)
MacroMod MacroModPermissions	Removes tamperCheck() calls from all methods
LiteLoader PermissionsManagerClient	Makes tamperCheck() a no-op
SplashProgress$3 (SplashProgress$3)	Injects GL state reset (GL_TEXTURE_2D + glColor4f) via reflection at the start of run()

3. Mixin (Dynamic Application)

CrossTieMixinPlugin dynamically applies only the necessary Mixins based on the detected installed Mods.

🔍 Detailed list of Mixin applications per Mod (Click to expand)

🔹 Angelica

• AngelicaRenderGlobalDisplayListCrashMixin (Client + Angelica + crosstie.enableNativeRenderGlobalDisplayLists=true)
  • When rendering hi03ExpressRailwayRail, avoids Angelica's display lists and uses the legacy OpenGL path.
• SplashProgressBlackoutFixMixin (Client + Angelica + enableFontRenderer=false)
  • Fixes texture state caching issues on the splash screen.

🔹 GTNHLib

• ObjectPoolerThreadSafeMixin (GTNHLib always)
  • Thread-safe object pooling.
• MixinBlockPaneFix / MixinBlockPaneIconFallback / MixinBlockIconFallback (Client + GTNHLib)
  • Fixes icon display and retrieval fallbacks for glass panes and blocks.

🔹 KaizPatchX (NGTScriptUtil / MCTE / RailMapCustom / NGTLib / RTM)

• ScriptUtilInvocableCacheMixin (NGTScriptUtil)
  • Optimization of Invocable cache.
• AngelicaScriptTransformCacheMixin (Client + Angelica + KaizPatch + NGTScriptUtil)
  • Intercepts AngelicaCompat.transformScript with ScriptGlRedirector (GL call redirection + caching).
• ModelPackManagerScriptRedirectMixin (Client + Angelica + RTM + NGTScriptUtil)
  • Applies ScriptGlRedirector to ModelPackManager.getScript.
• RailMapCustomCacheMixin (RailMapCustom)
  • Optimization of rail map cache.
• McteWorldSetBlockDiffMixin (MCTE)
  • Optimization of world block difference sets.
• RenderMiniatureDynamicLightMixin / RenderItemMiniatureDynamicLightMixin (Client + MCTE)
  • Fixes dynamic lighting for miniature blocks and miniature items.
• EntityTrainBaseSpeedSyncMixin / EntityTrainBaseOptimizationMixin (RTM)
  • Optimization of train speed synchronization and entity updates.
• RenderElectricalWiringConnectionCacheMixin / BlockLinePoleConnectionCacheMixin (Client + RTM)
  • Caching for wiring rendering and track pole connections.
• RenderLargeRailOptimizationMixin / RenderLargeRailChunkBatchMixin (Client + RTM)
  • Optimization of large rail rendering and chunk batch processing.
• RailPartsRendererOptimizationMixin (Client + RTM)
  • Optimization of rail parts renderer.

🔹 LiteLoader / MacroMod

• MixinPermissionsManagerClient / MacroModCoreMixin
  • Compatibility fixes for permissions and core.
