Patcher Features

Bug Fixes

Bug Fixes

  • Keep Shaders on Perspective change - Resolve Vanilla shaders being cleared when changing perspective. *default
  • Parallax Fix - Resolve the camera being too far back, seemingly making your eyes be in the back of your head. (Currently makes the F3 crosshair disappear.) MC-1846. (originally fixed by mojang in 15w46a)
  • Culling Fix - Resolve false negatives in frustum culling, creating invisible chunks in some cases. (Can negatively impact performance.) MC-63020 & MC-70850
  • Layers In Tab - Resolves players sometimes not having a hat layer in Tab. *default
  • Player Void Rendering - Resolve the black box around the player while in the void. *default
  • Alex Arm Position - Resolve Alex-model arms being shifted down further than Steve-model arms. *default
  • Resource Exploit Fix - Resolve an exploit in 1.8 allowing servers to look through directories. *default
Experimental
  • HUD Caching - Reuse frames from the HUD instead of constantly recreating it every frame, as most HUD elements will stay the same for a long amount of time. (This may cause stuff with animations to feel "choppy".)
Miscellaneous

Miscellaneous

Performance

Performance

  • Entity Culling - Stop entities that aren't visible to the player from rendering. *default
  • Entity Culling Interval - The amount of time in ms between occlusion checks for entities. Shorter periods are more costly toward performance but provide the most accurate information. Lower values recommended in competitive environments.
  • Smart Entity Culling - Stop entity culling effect when using OptiFine shaders. (Due to the way OptiFine shaders work, we are unable to make Entity Culling compatible at this time). *Default - Suggested by Twens#9340 / Already planned when Microcontrollers#6733 Suggested it
  • Don't Cull Player Nametags - Render nametags even when the player and nametag are occluded.
  • Don't Cull Entity Nametags - Render nametags even when the entity and nametag are occluded.
  • Don't Cull Armorstand Nametags - Render nametags even when the armour stand is occluded.
  • Check Armorstand Rules - Don't cull armorstands that have a marker set in their entity rules. This will result in a lot of unculled armorstands in places like Hypixel Skyblock, but will provide better entity visibility while losing out on some performance improvements.
  • Entity Back-face Culling - Stop rendering sides of entities that you cannot see. Being inside an entity will cause that body part to be invisible. (Some models may have a transparent face and will cause the back face to not show, such as Wither Skeletons.)
  • Player Back-face Culling - Stop rendering sides of players that you cannot see. Being inside a player will cause that body part to be invisible.
  • Disable Armorstands - Stop armorstands from rendering. (Armorstands are commonly used for NPC nametag rendering. Enabling this will stop those from rendering as well.)

  • Disable Enchantment Books - Stop enchantment table books from rendering.
  • Disable Item Frames - Stop item frames from rendering.
  • Disable Mapped Item frames - Stop item frames only with maps as their item from rendering. - Suggested by Duel#0969 / DJtheRedstoner#6408

  • Entity Render Distance Toggle - Toggle allowing a custom entity render distance.
  • Hostile Entity Render Distance - Stop rendering hostile entities outside a specified radius.
  • Passive Entity Render Distance - Stop rendering passive entities outside a specified radius.
  • Player Entity Render Distance - Stop rendering player entities outside a specified radius.
  • Global Entity Render Distance - Stop rendering all entities outside a specified radius. This will ignore the distance of other entity render distances if smaller.

Patcher FunFacts

Patcher FunFacts

  • Patcher has 49 Default options and 136 options in general, 16 of those are bug fixes, (note that those are the only bug fixes that you can enable and disable there is over 70 bug fixes which are force enabled) 41 QOL features and 41 Performance features (note that again those are the only visible ones) and Patcher also replaces 17 mods.
  • Optimized Font Renderer has been forcefully disabled in a recent sba beta.
  • Fastchat, Better Keybind Handling, pretty much all OptiFine zoom stuff were added by Llamalad7 along with fixing ssmanager by making it take priority over VanillaEnhancements since it completely broke it.
  • Patcher not only fixes vanilla bugs but even other mod's bugs suprisingly enough patcher fixes forge bugs and vanilla bugs and even optifine bugs.
  • Patcher was originally called tweaker as a project Asbyth the now main patcher developer was working on and then introduced tweaker 2.0 and Patcher which was then superseded by the now known patcher which has been worked on in the span of an entire year and more to come in the future.
  • Save Chat when toggling fullscreen was added by UserTeemu.
  • Downscale Pack Images - Used to upscale packs to 64x if they were less than 64x. - Reported by me
  • Resource Exploit Fix - Had a problem where servers were actually able to workaround which was later on fixed in an unknown patcher version. - Reported by Unknown
  • Old /FOV - Many people believe the /fov command had unlimited posibilities which isnt true, the command actually has a limit which is /fov 340282356779733661637539395458142568447. - Discovery by me
  • Patcher fixes an issue with the sun sometimes being black when using a Powns mod.
  • Optimized Resource Packs Menu - Is force disabled with the presence of labymod as the developers of the RP24 addon have no intentions of fixing their addon because it does things very poorly.
  • Fire Overlay Height - option was originally named Fire Height then got renamed with the release of Patcher 1.1 beta 1.
  • Downscale Pack Images - option was originally named Pack Images then later on got renamed with the release of Patcher 1.1 beta 7.
  • With the release of Patcher 1.1 beta 9 they renamed /blacklist to /pblacklist and removed /history alias to name history later on in Patcher 1.3 beta 16 they renamed /name to /pname due to it potentially messing up normal server/client commands.
  • In Patcher 1.1, they added optimizations regarding TileEntities, PathFinding memory leak, BlockEntities removal, Resource loading, Entity capability checks, GameRules, and other players.
  • Patcher 1.2 improved startup time significantly, 66 mods, patcher 1.1 -> 81 seconds, 66 mods, patcher 1.2 -> 52 seconds
  • In Patcher 1.3 beta 14, the disable armorstands option's description was extended to note that this setting will also disable most NPC names on most servers due to a ton of idiots complaining.
  • In Patcher 1.3, they fixed the annoying Vanilla bug that would crash the game when closing a GUI and pressing a hotbar key slot at the same time.
  • In Patcher 1.3, they moved commands such as /patchersounds to /patcher sounds, /name to /patcher name, /pblacklist to /patcher blacklist.
  • In Patcher 1.3.1 beta 1, the Blaze Culling Algorithm was released which performs some extra checks to see if entities are hidden behind others to not render them to later on get removed in Patcher 1.4 beta 1 then integrated in entity culling after it being redone in Unknown Patcher Version.
  • In Patcher 1.4, they fixed over 40 vanilla bugs.
  • In Patcher 1.4, they rewrote Entity Culling to use Depth Buffer Sampling, resulting in much better culling performance.
  • Speaking of Patcher 1.4 beta 1, this version had 24+ vanilla bugs that were reported there is others that were unreported including the hitbox rendering of Cactus after x/z + 1677216, and other related floating precision point issues here's some.
  • In Patcher 1.4 beta 6, the file size got reduced by an incredible amount from 3.3mb to ~600kb. This was the result of Asbyth requesting permission from sk1er to bundle coroutines and caffeine then removing them from the Patcher jar.
  • In Patcher 1.5 beta 3, they Removed Chunk Lighting Fix due to complaints of stuttering.
  • /coords was changed to /sendcoords in a Patcher 1.5 beta after the user Microcontrollers complained about it being first in tab complete ahead of /coordshud.
  • The Compact Chat rewrite and Limit Chunk Updates were pretty much done by Moulberry.
  • In Patcher 1.5, they forced max FOV through /fov to be 110 to stop things from being broken when too high.
  • In Patcher 1.5, the Name History menu was completely redesigned.
Known Planned Features for Patcher

Known Planned Features for Patcher

  • Fix parallax fix from removing crosshair on F3 - Self explanatory.
  • Opacity silder for chat transparency instead of the current option. - Current option is just transparency with no configurable slider, that will change in the next version(s).
  • Save chatbox content when closed - For when you're randomly warped the text you were typing in the chatbox gets saved.
