Minecraft java currently is really laggy, this looks like a nightmare to run on low to mid range devices
Do use use the mod called Sodium? Vanilla Minecraft Java has bad performance issues that are fixed with Sodium. I've tried Vanilla minecraft side by side with minecraft + shaders and sodium, and even with the shaders, sodium made it smoother.
Was reading about sodium and some sodium addon just yesterday while playing with the idea of a server ran on a spare pi4b... Wonder if it would help with a 2-6 player server. I dont expect much of the pi4b (currently running piOS but I'll dabble with any linux/gnu). I may just give sodium a go after all.
Sodium is client side, so it will not help with server performance. Something like Paper can improve server performance.
True! I wanted it on the server side so it would push with automodpack for connecting clients, some on really old pcs or underpowered laptops.
It works wonders after a couple of tests too. Meesa happy.
