Optimizes certain block entities (chests, beds and more) by rendering them as ordinary block models instead of animated ones.
Measured
Configuration
config/fasterblockentities.properties
staticChests=true
staticShulkerBoxes=false
Chests covers normal, trapped, ender and every copper variant. Shulker boxes covers the undyed box and all sixteen colours. Shulker boxes are off by default because the lid opening is useful feedback.
Set a key to false to restore that block's vanilla renderer and animation. The mod then leaves
rendering entirely to Minecraft, so there is no double-drawing. Changes take effect on the next
launch.
Supported: 26.1.2 and 26.2, on Fabric and NeoForge. Client-side only. No dependencies.
Credit
The chest model, blockstate and atlas resources are taken from
FastChest by FakeDomi. Faster Block Entities ports
the approach to Minecraft 26.x. The shulker box resources are generated from vanilla's own
entity model layers by ./gradlew generateModels.
