Compatibility Notes

Shaders: The fade feature is incompatible with most major shader. Please disable fade when using them together. (Note: Fade appears to work with MakeUp - Ultra Fast | Shaders).
Entity Culling:Block entities may vanish. Disable block entity culling in settings.
Sound Physics Remastered:Audio occlusion/reverb is calculated from wrong position due to detached camera.
Epic Fight:Set camera_mode = "ALWAYS_BACK" in config/epicfight-client.toml to prevent camera conflicts.

Suggested Mods

Countered's Terrain Slabs: While not required, this mod makes traversing terrain much smoother, reducing the need to jump up blocks. It pairs very well with the ARPG-style top-down camera.
