Render Method

Render Method is a lightweight Fabric client-side mod that lets you slash your render distance on demand with one keybind, then instantly restore it.

⚙️ How to Change the Keybind

1. Make sure Mod Menu and Cloth Config are installed alongside Render Method
2. Open the game and go to Mods from the main menu or pause menu
3. Find Render Method in the mod list and click the config/wrench icon next to it
4. In the config screen, click the Toggle Key binding button
5. Press whatever key you want to use as the new toggle
6. Click Done / close the config screen to save

How it works:

• Press the toggle key to drop your render distance to 2 chunks
• Press it again to restore your previous render distance automatically
• An on-screen message confirms the change and shows what was saved/restored

Why you'd want this:

• PvP/competitive play - cut down render load in the middle of a fight without digging through options menus
• Low-end hardware - quickly free up FPS when things get chunky (large builds, redstone contraptions, crowded servers)
• Speedrunning - shave off rendering overhead during time-critical sections
• Streaming/recording - drop distant chunk rendering to reduce stutter without alt-tabbing
