What does this mod actually do?

It loads chunks faster by predicting where you're moving and pre-loading them ahead of time. Also reduces how often chunks get loaded and unloaded, which cuts lag.

Do I need other mods for this to work?

Yes. You need a mod loader (Forge or Fabric) and Cupboard Mod. The mod won't function without Cupboard.

What Minecraft versions are supported?

Versions 1.18.2, 1.19.2, and 1.20.1. Both Forge and Fabric versions are available.

Will this work with my other mods?

Generally yes. It plays nice with most mods, but if you run into issues check if there's a known conflict with something you've installed.

Does this mod improve performance?

Yes. By pre-loading chunks and reducing constant load/unload cycles, it should smooth out chunk loading stutters and improve overall performance.

Better Chunk Loading Mod 1.20.1, 1.19.2

Better Chunk Loading Mod does one simple thing: loads chunks faster. Instead of waiting for chunks to appear as you move, this mod predicts where you’re heading and pre-loads them ahead of time. No more stuttering or lag spikes when exploring. It also changes how the game loads chunks around you to be less reactive, so you’re not constantly loading and unloading the same chunks over and over.

How to Install

Install your mod loader first (Forge or Fabric). Then download the mod file and drop it in your .minecraft/mods folder. Launch the game and you’re done.
