Nvidium Forge is a Forge performance modpack built around Nvidium.
Nvidium swaps Embeddium/Sodium’s renderer for an NVIDIA‑only one that pushes more terrain rendering/culling to the GPU for a big FPS boost (especially at high render distances).
Nvidium is normally a Fabric mod, but this pack makes it work on Forge using Sinytra Connector and Forgified Fabric API (plus Embeddium and a few tweaks).
What this modpack aims to improve:
- Tick stability
- FPS
- Faster chunk loading
Note:
- Nvidium on Forge is still experimental.
- The modpack doesn’t change vanilla gameplay.
- Nvidium only works on supported NVIDIA GPUs.
- If your GPU isn’t supported, Nvidium won’t run (it can disable itself), but removing/disabling it is still recommended for stability.
- Nvidium disables itself when shaders are active.
Issues can be posted in the comments for now. (will make a discord server later)
Feel free to use this as a base in your own modpack.
