Fast Sounds
Java mod listed for Minecraft 1.20. Downloads from the MC Java Mods app on Android.
⬇ Download on CurseForgeThe author built this one for Minecraft 1.20.1 on Forge. On other versions it may install and then do nothing.
Optimizes some laggy aspects of minecraft's sound engine. This will provide really minor performance improvements but its completely free boost so I do not see a reason to not include it.
Currently in early-development stages. I am quite busy with irl stuff.
