Addoners Optimizers

Addoners Optimizers is a lightweight, client-side optimization mod designed to enhance Minecraft performance without compromising visual quality. It intelligently monitors in-game conditions such as FPS and dynamically applies optimized settings to ensure smooth and stable gameplay across a wide range of systems.

Built for both low-end and mid-range PCs, the mod reduces lag, improves frame consistency, and minimizes unnecessary resource usage. Unlike aggressive optimizers, it focuses on balanced adjustments, avoiding sudden visual drops or unstable performance spikes.

The mod works seamlessly with shaders and other client-side mods, making it ideal for players who want better performance while maintaining their preferred visual experience. With a simple and automatic approach, Addoners Optimizers requires no manual configuration—just install and play.

Addoners Optimizer

Addoners Optimizer is a client-side performance mod for Minecraft 1.26.1.2 (Fabric) that dynamically adjusts selected video settings based on real-time FPS measurements to help maintain smoother and more stable gameplay performance.

How it works

The mod samples the player's FPS every second using a rolling average and applies one of three optimization levels:

• LOW (≥80 FPS) — minimal adjustments, prioritizing visual quality
• MEDIUM (50–79 FPS) — moderate reductions to selected graphics settings
• AGGRESSIVE (<50 FPS) — stronger reductions intended to improve frame stability on lower performance systems

A 3-second cooldown between changes helps prevent rapid setting fluctuations.

Features

• Automatically adjusts:

  • Render distance
  • Particle settings
  • Smooth lighting
  • Shader quality settings

  • Optional status HUD displaying:

    • Current FPS
    • Active optimization level
    • Shader detection state

  • Shader-aware mode:

    • Reduces optimization aggressiveness when Iris or Canvas shaders are detected

  • .addoners profile system:

    • JSON-based profiles for hardware tiers or shader packs
    • User-customizable optimization rules

  • Built-in profiles for:

    • Quartzglow Shaderpack
    • Skygleam Shaderpack

  • In-game configuration support through Mod Menu

  • Structured debug logging to logs/latest.log

Adjustable settings

Depending on the active optimization profile, the mod can dynamically modify:

• Render distance (2–32 chunks)
• Particle settings
• Smooth lighting
• Shadow quality levels
• Shader toggles through profile rules

Requirements

• Minecraft 1.26.1.2
• Fabric Loader 0.18.6 or newer
• Fabric API
• Java 25+
• Mod Menu (optional)

Configuration

Config location:

%appdata%/.minecraft/config/teamaddoners/modconfig.json

Profiles folder:

%appdata%/.minecraft/config/teamaddoners/profiles/

No manual setup is required. The optimizer starts automatically when Minecraft launches.

Performance notes

Performance impact and effectiveness may vary depending on:

• Hardware specifications
• Installed mods
• Shader packs
• World complexity
• Render resolution
• Server load

Testing was primarily performed on systems using Fabric with Sodium-based rendering environments under varying render distances and shader configurations.
