Client-Enhanced

by nickesc — [GitHub](https://github.com/nickesc) | [Modrinth](https://modrinth.com/user/nickesc) ## Overview  [](https://fabricmc.net/) [](https://modrinth.com/modpack/client-enhanced/gallery) **_Client-Enhanced_** is an overhaul of the current Minecraft client. Its goal is to keep the game feeling as close to Vanilla as possible while adding a number of enhancements designed to improve quality of life, visuals, performance, multiplayer, and more. When you play using **_Client-Enhanced_**, you will only be playing with client-side mods. Nothing adds blocks, items, or new gameplay mechanics. And using this modpack, you should still be able to play on Vanilla servers with friends who aren't using it. > **Caution:** **_Client-Enhanced_** is not guaranteed to be compatible with all multiplayer servers. Some mods may be flagged by anti-cheat plugins and result in a ban. > > **_DO NOT_** connect to a server with **_Client-Enhanced_** unless you know the mods in this modpack are permitted on that server. The sections below cover the major features, but are not exhaustive. For full content lists, see the [Mod List](https://github.com/nickesc/client-enhanced/blob/main/mods/README.md), [Shader Pack List](https://github.com/nickesc/client-enhanced/blob/main/shaderpacks/README.md), and [Resource Pack List](https://github.com/nickesc/client-enhanced/blob/main/resourcepacks/README.md). ### Visuals Shaders are supported through [_Iris_](https://modrinth.com/mod/iris), with [_I Like Vanilla_](https://modrinth.com/shader/i-like-vanilla) as the default, which overhauls lighting, shadows, and atmosphere while still looking like the Minecraft you know and love. [_Camera Overhaul_](https://modrinth.com/mod/cameraoverhaul) adds more weight and movement to the camera, making it tilt, sway, and bob realistically as you move. [_Shoulder Surfing Reloaded_](https://modrinth.com/mod/shoulder-surfing-reloaded) reworks third-person into an over-the-shoulder perspective. A freecam mode is also available, which lets you detach the camera entirely. Effects and particles are improved, with tons of new and improved particle effects for blocks, entities, and interactions. Resource packs like [_Nautilus 3D_](https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/nautilus3d) and [_Fresh Animations_](https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/fresh-animations) add 3D detail to block models and more expressive movement to entities. Other packs update the user interface, tweak how things are rendered, and more. ### Enhancements [_Controlify_](https://modrinth.com/mod/controlify) adds controller support and elytra flight controls are reworked with more natural pitch-and-roll behavior. The sound engine is overhauled -- audio now reacts to the environment with reverb, echo, and occlusion thanks to [_Sound Physics Remastered_](https://modrinth.com/mod/sound-physics-remastered) -- and new sound effects have been added throughout the game. Proximity chat, through [_Simple Voice Chat_](https://modrinth.com/mod/simple-voice-chat), and player emotes are available on supported servers. [_ViaFabricPlus_](https://modrinth.com/mod/viafabricplus) lets you connect to servers running other Minecraft versions. [_Capes_](https://modrinth.com/mod/capes), [_Ears_](https://modrinth.com/mod/ears), [_Show Me Your Skin!_](https://modrinth.com/mod/show-me-your-skin), and [_Female Gender Mod_](https://modrinth.com/mod/female-gender) add character customization options, from skin details to player model changes. ### HUD and User Interface [_Jade_](https://modrinth.com/mod/jade) shows block and entity information when you look at something, including container previews. The crosshair will also change based on what you're targeting and what you're holding. [_Just Enough Items_](https://modrinth.com/mod/jei) adds item and recipe lookup in your inventory, and sort buttons in inventory and chest screens make organizing items easier. [_JourneyMap_](https://modrinth.com/mod/journeymap) adds a minimap and full-screen map with waypoints, synced to the server when supported. The Achievement, Statistics, and Command Block screens have cleaner layouts and provide additional information. ### Optimization and Fixes [_Sodium_](https://modrinth.com/mod/sodium) replaces the rendering engine with a much faster one, and mods like [_Lithium_](https://modrinth.com/mod/lithium), [_FerriteCore_](https://modrinth.com/mod/ferrite-core), [_ModernNetworking_](https://modrinth.com/mod/modernnetworking) fix performance issues and bugs and make optimizations across the base game. Optional Features #### Resource Packs Quite a few resource packs are included, and you can select between four preset profiles in the Resource Pack menu: - `Enhanced` -- all recommended packs - `Vanilla-Like` -- drops packs that make significant changes - `Vanilla` -- only the necessary packs - `Enhanced - Shader Alternative` The `Enhanced - Shader Alternative` profile is a version of the `Enhanced` profile that uses Core Shaders. It is only recommended if you have performance issues with standard shaders. To have finer control over all packs, including regularly required and hidden ones, select `No Profile`. #### Shaders Client-Enhanced uses the [_I Like Vanilla_](https://modrinth.com/shader/i-like-vanilla) shader by default. Press O to open the Shader Pack menu, where you can also select [_Miniature Shader_](https://modrinth.com/shader/miniature-shader) for lower-end machines. Other shaders are enabled automatically in the Nether and End. > [_Dimension Based Shader Switch_](https://modrinth.com/mod/dimension-based-shaders) enforces shader selection per dimension. Shaders will reset to defaults on world reload (death, dimension change, etc.). To use a different shader that persists across reloads, change it in the _Dimension Based Shader Switch_ config via Mod Menu. To turn off shaders entirely, use the Shader Pack menu or press K. #### Hotkeys Several enhancements can be toggled with hotkeys: - Pressing K will toggle camera changes, including shaders - Pressing J will toggle many HUD elements, including the minimap and block ID - Pressing L will toggle a couple backend changes like sign click-through and some render culling Keybinds Default keybinds (can be customized in the Controls menu):  ## License **_Client-Enhanced_** is released under the LGPL-3.0 License.
