A client-side optimization modpack with a few extra tweaks.
Sodium Plus aims to re-create the experience of the OptiFine mod, while still having the most resource-efficient Minecraft client you can have. It also comes with some visual tweaks, quality-of-life changes, and a couple of bug patches. A couple of these mods (such as Chest Tracker) you may not like, as it changes gameplay, even if it is only client-side. Because of this, I might make a fair play edition later on.
Please submit any bugs or feature requests on out GitHub issues page: https://github.com/happyredstone/sodiumplus/issues
You shouldn't get banned or kicked for joining a 1.20.x version of the game, but might have issues with older versions. I am not responsible for any bans you might get!
Note: If you're looking for OutPerform, it is no longer maintained. My friend is now helping me work on Sodium Plus, since he no longer works on OutPerform, and Sodium Plus is much better.
Old OutPerform versions can be found here:

Sorry for the long break from development, Redstone and I (NoSad) have been very busy with school, so we apoligize for the long development cycle!
This is a very early alpha build for Minecraft 1.21.5, and it will improve as more mods are available for this version.
These mods were removed for compatability with minecraft 1.21.5, and will be added back as mods update.

An actually working version of 2.3.0, sorry about last time. No changes to anything except for the pack format, same mods and fabric version as last time.
Status Update
I've been working on new tooling for Sodium Plus for a long time now. I'm in the middle of migrating some of my infrastructure to a new system, so it may be a while. In the future, these tools will allow us to update and work on Sodium Plus a lot more quickly and with much higher quality. It is important that I finish this. In the meantime, @NoSadBeHappy will be updating the pack with smaller fixes and alpha versions to support Minecraft updates. Thank you for your patience!

A quick and dirty upload for 1.21. ~~Works fine~~, but lacks a bunch of mods without 1.21 support.
I have just disabled them, not removed them, so in the mod section of prism launcher you can see what mods are not used.
Thanks for your patience for this upload!

Hello again, its NoSad!
I know I haven't updated this pack recently at all. I know you are looking for a 1.20.4 version, but for the sake of time, I have stuck with 1.20.1.
So, what have I done?
- Updated Quilt
- Updated all mods
- Added:
- Ambient Sounds
- Effective
- Biome Particle Weather (reccomended by savely22827 on discord)
- ViaFabricPlus
(to allow you to connect to basically any version of minecraft. You shouldn't get banned or kicked for joining a 1.20.x version of the game, but might have issues with older versions. I am not responsible for any bans you might get)
If anyone knows of a way to manage the modpack easier, please let me know. I am currently just manually exporting it, which is not good, and takes time. If you have any ideas, please reach out on discord: https://discord.com/invite/dsct28MQMC

Sodium Plus gets an overhaul!
We have added a bunch of performance mods, most of which are heavily inspired by the pack Fabulously Optimised.
Sodium Plus has also been updated to 1.19.4, but due to this, we have had to remove some mods due to incompatibilities, so hopefully we will be able to add them back in as they update. The list of those mods is below.
Also, @NoSadBeHappy broke Packwiz while working on this update, so the main branch on GitHub is currently broken. When he has time, @RedstoneWizard08 work on disaster relief.
Edit: Yeah, @NoSadBeHappy is apparently not very good at keyboard things (this is a joke, he's great, don't hate) so I had to fix all the issues. 😆

23.11.2022 · 4 597 downloads
This is a version of v.1.4.0 that uses quilt loader instead of fabric. Sense quilt is faster, and this is a optimazation pack, I am working on moving to only using quilt. This is the first test. Please report any issues you find to my github issues!

This is a updated version of the LoD release v.1.3.1. This has no mods removed, adds litematica to go with v.1.4.0, and has iris shaders included. Although iris is not supported by distant horisons, it can work, so I have left it in there. Use at your own risk, and your game may break. I have also updated all mods. This is basically v.1.4.0 with Distant Horisons added.

This is the first major release for Minecraft 1.19.2. This has all of the mods back in that I removed in previous versions, as compatability problems are solved. I have also added litematica, as this seems to be a useful mod that I only started using recently. I have also updated all mods, and updated fabric launcher.
14.09.2022 · 3 434 downloads
This is a alpha version of Sodium Plus with Distant Horisons mod added. This is a LoD mod which makes it possible to have extremely far render distances without too much extra performance loss.
This version also does not include the iris mod, as shaders are not supported with distant horizons.

Iris shaders
Xaero's Minimap

This is a minor update for 1.2.0 for Minecraft version 1.19. Includes the 4 mods I removed in Version 1.2.0, and updates all mods.
23.06.2022 · 6 239 downloads
This is the first release for Minecraft 1.19. I have removed 3 mods from this version because they were crashing Minecraft, so therefor this is a beta version and I will upload a new version once those mods update, or I figure out the issue.
The missing mods are:
Not Enough Crashes (Fabric): https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/not-enough-crashes
Drip Sounds (Fabric): https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/dripsounds-fabric
Slyde: https://modrinth.com/mod/slyde (and LibJF: https://modrinth.com/mod/libjf)

fixes licensing issues, this is also why the pack was off of modrinth for a while, and why I have removed the previous versions.
Note: I accadentally labeled this version as for 1.19, it is actually for 1.18.2, sorry for the confusion.
