mc26.2 stable! - A lightweight, open-source performance modpack for NeoForge

Product

About

Hammer is a client-side modpack, developed for (Neo)Forge, comprised of the best combination of mods (e.g. Sodium and Lithium, along with many more) that significantly improves rendering performance, logic performance, memory usage, and more - all without compromising on the game's vanilla looks and features!

It is designed to be simple and not include any quality-of-life mods, along with not including redundant performance mods. Because of this simplicity, the modpack is compatible with a very wide range of devices and can be updated to the latest versions very quickly. Want more features? No problem! Hammer serves as a great foundation for performance - simply add your favorite mods on top.

For the list of mods that are included, see this wiki page.

📥 Installation Guide

Please be sure to read Sodium's Driver Compatibility section on the wiki before installing Hammer. It contains some important instructions on preventing crashes and other performance issues.

You can install the modpack with a third party launcher following the Modrinth’s documentation. After you install, you can figure out how to tweak things to give greater optimizations in the post-install section of the wiki. This includes procedures such as increasing your allocated memory and tweaking your game settings for your device.

After installing the modpack, you can easily add your favorite mods so long as they are compatible with the Minecraft version you are playing on. The wiki also has some recommendations on possibly improving performance further with other mods that are not suitable to be included in Hammer by default.

⭐ Features

🚀 Major performance improvement

Hammer aims to significantly improve rendering and game logic performance, along with memory and hardware usage, without compromising on the game's looks or features in any way. This is done with various optimization mods that are actively tested for stability and improvement. Some mods are also pre-configured. Hammer wouldn't exist without projects like Sodium, so I advise you to donate to mod authors and contributors if you can.

For the list of performance mods that are included, see this wiki page.

🪶 Lightweight

I only pick the combination of mods that work best with eachother, and don't include performance mods that aren't necessary or often break compatibility with other mods or device hardware.

⚙️ Source-available

All mods in Hammer are either open-source or source-available, which means you can view the code of mods and see exactly what they are doing. Hammer is also available as packwiz projects on GitHub so that you can easily view what's being changed, contribute if you would like to, or fork the modpack to create your own project. If you would like to view the mods shipped with Hammer, simply look at the dependencies in the Modrinth page or look in the Git repository.

✅ Hardware Compatibility

For Hardware Compatibility information, see the corresponding section in Sodium's Modrinth description.
