📌 Before You Download

• Made for Minecraft 1.21.4 using the Fabric mod loader.
• Runs well on mid-range computers and up, but should work on older systems too — it was tested on a 3rd gen i5 with 8GB RAM and performed decently.
• If you GPU does not support OpenGL 4.6 and the game doesn't boot up, try removing the Super Resolution mod.

💾 Recommended RAM Allocation

System RAM	Allocate to Minecraft
8GB	4GB
12GB	6GB
16GB	8GB
24GB+	8GB max (no need to allocate more)

⚙️ Recommended JVM Arguments

For 4GB or less of allocated RAM:

-XX:+UseG1GC

For 6GB or more of allocated RAM:

-XX:+UseZGC -XX:+ZGenerational

Note: "-XX:+UseG1GC" is not even needed since it's the default garbage collector, which means that argument is ON by default. You could try using ZGC Generational but its performance might not be great if the system is equipped with 8GB of RAM or less. So try "-XX:+UseZGC -XX:+ZGenerational" and see if it performs great. Otherwise, stick to "-XX:+UseG1GC" or no arguments at all.
