EBE is a 100% client side mod for Minecraft on the Fabric mod loader which aims to increase the performance of block entity rendering, as well as offer customizability via resource packs.
How does it work? EBE Makes chests (and soon to be more block entities) use baked block models rather than laggy entity models.
What about animations? The best part about EBE is that you still get to keep animations, while gaining the performance boost of baked models! Most animated block entity models will only render when absolutely necessary.
Can I use it with Sodium? Yes you can, but it requires some setup. I have a guide that you can follow to get this mod performing as optimally as possible with Sodium.
Requires Fabric API
Q: I need help with the mod/need to report a bug!
A: If you're having trouble setting up the mod or using it alongside other mods, I'd recommend you join our Discord Server and ask for help there. If the issue is a BUG please report it on our issue tracker ("Issues" tab at the top of the page)
Q: My chests are invisible!
A: You're using Sodium, which doesn't support certain Fabric Rendering features by default. If you want to use Sodium with EBE, you should follow this guide.
Q: How is this different from FastChest?
A: FastChest does not preserve chest animations, and only optimizes chests (in a similar way to EBE). EBE aims to optimize many more block entities (in future releases).
Rendering 1700 chests:
A 155% frame rate increase!
Here's an example of how you can customize chests with resource packs using EBE.
