Vulkanoid is a high-performance, Vulkan-based modpack engineered to squeeze every single frame out of your hardware.

Why choose Vulkanoid?

Vulkan Engine (OpenGL Replacement)

Standard modpacks rely on the outdated OpenGL API. Vulkanoid shifts the rendering to the Vulkan API. This stops your CPU from being bottlenecked by old drivers, providing a massive FPS boost

Ultra-Lightweight

"Less is more." I've kept only the essential optimization mods. No useless bloatware eating up your RAM for nothing. It’s the leanest pack you can run for maximum speed.

Zero Light-Update Lag

Tired of stutters when placing torches or breaking blocks? I've optimized the lighting engine and integrated Fullbright logic so that light updates never cause a frame drop again.

Faster Chunk Generation

World loading is significantly snappier. I've tuned how chunks are generated and sent to the client, reducing those "void holes" when exploring the map at high speeds.

What I got on my pc using this modpack

Pc specs: Intel Pentium Silver N5030/Intel UHD Graphics 605/8GB Ram/256GB SSD/OS:Atlas OS

Overworld exploration: 150 - 120 FPS

Dense Areas / Large Bases: 60 - 100 FPS

Void: 700+ FPS

How can you improve performance even more?

Use optimized JVM arguments: Don't just use the default ones. Good JVM flags help the "Garbage Collector" clean up memory more efficiently, which stops those annoying random stutters (lag spikes) while you play.
Allocate the right amount of RAM: If you have 8GB total, try allocating 3GB or 4GB to Minecraft. Never allocate all your RAM, or your operating system will struggle, causing the game to lag.
Update your Graphics Drivers: Since Vulkanoid relies on the Vulkan API, having the latest drivers from Intel, AMD, or Nvidia is mandatory. Old drivers often have "broken" Vulkan support.

Does this supports shaders?

Kinda. Since this modpack uses VulkanMod, standard shaders are not available. , BUT there is a mod named Beryl that adds an efficient shader pipeline for Vulkan.
