# Introduction
\nRiptidium is an ongoing project I\u2019ve been developing for quite some time. It delivers a solid and reliable experience while keeping the game fast and optimized, providing exceptionally high FPS. The pack includes several features that OptiFine included in the past. It also includes several quality-of-life improvements to enhance user-friendliness and immersion. I\u2019ve also ensured it contains most of AntVenom\u2019s must-have mods.<\/p>\n
# Installation
\nTo install Riptidium, simply download it directly from Modrinth or use a third-party Minecraft launcher like ATLauncher to install the pack.<\/p>\n
If you are using the **Vulkan** version, no extra setup is required.<\/p>\n
If you face a lot of lag or stuttering on the **Vulkan** version, make sure to check which GPU is selected in the in-game video settings.<\/p>\n
If you are using the **Sodium** version on **Minecraft 1.21.1**, no extra setup is required.<\/p>\n
If you are using the **Sodium** version on a version newer than **1.21.1**, one extra step is required. Since Nvidium has not been officially updated for newer versions, you must manually download this forked version and place it into the pack\u2019s `mods` folder: **https:\/\/github.com\/drouarb\/nvidium**<\/p>\n
# Vulkan & Sodium
\nRiptidium comes in two versions: one built around Vulkan and the other built around Sodium. The table below explains the main differences between them.<\/p>\n
## Minecraft 1.21.1<\/p>\n
| Feature | Vulkan Version | Sodium Version |
\n|———|—————-|—————-|
\n| **FPS Performance** | Highest FPS. Great for PvP and general gameplay. | Strong performance, with extra Sodium-based features. |
\n| **Shader Support** | \u274c Not supported. | \u2705 Supported. |
\n| **GPU Requirements** | No special requirements. | NVIDIA GPU required for Nvidium *(GTX 1600 series or newer).* Nvidium will automatically disable itself if your GPU is unsupported. |
\n| **Render Distance Optimization** | Standard render performance. | Uses Nvidium for better render distance performance. |
\n| **Version Support** | Works well across versions. | Fully supported on **1.21.1**. |
\n| **Mod Compatibility** | General mod support. | Best used with mods that properly support the Sodium-based setup. |<\/p>\n
## Minecraft Versions Newer Than 1.21.1<\/p>\n
| Feature | Vulkan Version | Sodium Version |
\n|———|—————-|—————-|
\n| **FPS Performance** | Highest FPS. Great for PvP and general gameplay. | Strong performance, but requires an extra setup step on newer versions. |
\n| **Shader Support** | \u274c Not supported. | \u2705 Supported. |
\n| **GPU Requirements** | No special requirements. | NVIDIA GPU required for Nvidium *(GTX 1600 series or newer).* Nvidium will automatically disable itself if your GPU is unsupported. |
\n| **Render Distance Optimization** | Standard render performance. | Can use Nvidium, but only with a manually installed fork. |
\n| **Version Support** | Works well across versions. | Requires extra setup on versions newer than **1.21.1**. |
\n| **Mod Compatibility** | General mod support. | Compatibility may vary depending on the Minecraft version and Sodium\/Nvidium support. |<\/p>\n
> [!IMPORTANT]
\n> If you are using a version newer than **1.21.1**, the **Sodium** version of the pack needs one extra step.
\n>
\n> Please follow the extra Nvidium setup listed in the **Installation** section above.<\/p>\n
# Updates
\nBoth versions of Riptidium will be updated as needed. Riptidium, based on Sodium, may need updating more often as Nvidium support is a bit finicky due to the original project not being updated. The Vulkan-based version will continue to run the latest versions of Minecraft flawlessly.<\/p>\n
