0.6.0 (Beta 2) for NeoForge

Changelog

  • Improved performance on integrated Intel GPUs by up to 10-15% with additional terrain rendering optimizations.
  • Added a new optimization called "Material Downgrading" which moves some terrain geometry to a simpler render pass when the texture is not transparent or translucent. This can improve terrain rendering performance slightly, and sometimes much more with certain mods or resource packs.
  • Added an option to the Video Settings screen for controlling the Fullscreen Resolution. (This is currently only available on Windows.)
  • The game no longer crashes at startup instead of showing an error pop-up mesage on NeoForge.
  • Fixed a problem where animated textures would stop animating, especially when some other mods were installed.
  • Fixed a problem where z-fighting would occur with some block overlays, such as emissive textures.
  • Fixed a frequent crash when unfocusing the game window or switching between applications on older Intel GPUs.
  • Fixed a bug that would cause mixin overrides from mods to not apply.
  • Fixed compatibility with some mods that modify biome colors on NeoForge (i.e. Polytone.)
  • Fixed compatibility with mods that render their block entities on a glowing render pass.
  • Added an API for mods that need to conditionally render block entities (i.e. Flywheel.)
