## \ud83d\ude80 Smooth your Minecraft inventory experience<\/p>\n
Minecraft inventory can feel slightly stuttery \u2014 especially when hovering items, opening chests, or using modded GUIs.
\nSodium Relief is a lightweight client-side optimization mod that reduces small tooltip and hover-related stutter without changing gameplay.<\/p>\n
### \u2699\ufe0f What it does
\n> Smooths tooltip rendering in inventory-like screens
\n> Reduces redundant tooltip recalculations
\n> Stabilizes hover behavior when moving the cursor across items
\n> Improves responsiveness in chests, menus, and modded interfaces<\/p>\n
### \ud83e\udde0 How it works
\nSodium Relief optimizes the tooltip pipeline by:
\n– caching tooltip layout results (LRU + TTL)
\n– reusing previously computed tooltip data
\n– avoiding unnecessary recomputation during fast cursor movement
\n– applying lightweight hover smoothing logic<\/p>\n
All optimizations are client-side, safe, and designed to work alongside Sodium.<\/p>\n
### \ud83c\udfaf When it helps
\nYou\u2019ll notice the biggest improvement when:<\/p>\n
– opening large inventories (chests, storage systems)
\n– quickly hovering over many items
\n– using mods with heavy or complex tooltips
\n– experiencing subtle UI micro-stutter<\/p>\n
– \u2757 What this mod does NOT do
\n– \u274c Does NOT increase FPS in the world
\n– \u274c Does NOT optimize chunks, rendering, or GPU load
\n– \u274c Does NOT act as a general performance booster<\/p>\n
This is a focused GUI smoothness mod, not a full optimization suite.<\/p>\n
### \ud83e\udde9 Compatibility
\n– \u2714 Fabric (Minecraft 1.21+)
\n– \u2714 Client-side only
\n– \u2714 Works best with Sodium
\n– \u2714 Safe to use on servers (no gameplay changes)
\n– \ud83d\udca1 Why use Sodium Relief?<\/p>\n
Most performance mods focus on rendering or world logic.
\nSodium Relief focuses on UI smoothness, solving a small but noticeable source of micro-stutter that is often ignored.<\/p>\n
### \ud83d\udce6 Installation
\nInstall via the Modrinth App for the best experience
\nRequires Fabric Loader<\/p>\n
