Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20–1.21. File opened and checked on 8 Oct 2026; downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
I don't know my version or loader
Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.
No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.
Draconic Evolution Render Patcher
About
A fix for Draconic Evolution and Embeddium/Sodium Render issues.
If you find any bugs or crashes, whether for 1.20.1 or 1.21.1, please report them on Github
How it works?
It changes the render of Brandons Core to use Embeddium's or Sodium's entity system.
Features
- Fixes rendering issues with Draconic Evolution when using Embeddium/Sodium.
- Has compatibility code to change Iris and ImmediatelyFast configurations to force Draconic's items and entities to be rendered.
- You can check each compatible mod settings by using "/derender status" command.
Important Information
- Draconic Evolution Render Patcher is a Client-side mod.
- Remember to use either Sodium or Embeddium.
- If Iris is installed, the mod will force "allowUnknownShaders" setting to be "true" at runtime.
- If ImmediatelyFast is installed, the mod will force "hud_batching" setting to be "false" at runtime.
- Some shader packs have issues when used with mods - please ensure you're using a compatible pack (Complementary is one of those with good support for mods).
You can disable these changes in the config file located at
config/derenderpatcher-client.toml. By disabling it, each mod will use its own configuration settings.
