Visible Block Entities
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.
What This Mod Does
Visible Block Entities makes block entities viewable anywhere inside the set render distance. This is especially useful for bases that make heavy use of banners or other block entities in their design.
How does it work?
Visible Block Entities overrides the hard-coded 64 block rendering limit for block entities. Instead it uses the set render distance to calculate the rendering limit to make it practically unnoticeable.
- Performance drops may occur if there is too many block entities in the set render distance. This can simply be fixed by lowering the set render distance or installing a performance enhancing mod.
- Due to how this mod overwrites base Minecraft code, there is always a possibility this can cause incompatibilities with another mod. At this time, there is no known incompatibilities with any other mod.
