What More Culling is
More Culling is a free Minecraft: Java Edition mod focused on rendering performance. Culling skips rendering things a player cannot see; the project covers techniques for block states, item frames, leaves and paintings. Its wiki also explains custom culling shapes and model shapes for resource packs, and offers API guidance for custom block culling and troubleshooting modded blocks. The Modrinth page lists Minecraft versions 1.18.x through 1.21.x and 26.1.x through 26.3, with Fabric, NeoForge and Quilt loaders. Listed environments include client-side and client-and-server use, while the compatibility details specify client scope and no dedicated server support. More Culling requires Cloth Config. The related MoreCullingExtra extension adds culling for glass panes and combinations of glass and beacons. The project is licensed under GPL-3.0-only. Modpack use is allowed with attribution; merging the mod into a client or another mod requires permission.
