# DimensionalThreading <\/p>\n
This project is a free and open-source Minecraft mod which optimizes the processing of multiple Dimensions, by assigning them independent threads.
\nIt works on both the **client and server**, and **does not** require the mod to be installed on both sides.<\/p>\n
### Installing<\/p>\n
Install the Fabric Loader. Select Fabric for either the Minecraft launcher (client) or the dedicated server (server).
\nOnce you have installed Fabric, move the`DimThread.jar`and the`Fabric-API.jar`into the`\/mods`folder generated by Fabric.<\/p>\n

### Configuration<\/p>\n
##### DimThread comes with 2 native Gamerules: ### FAQ<\/p>\n ##### Does the mod change Vanilla behaviour? ##### Can my dimensions get de-synchronized? ##### Are dimension counts above 3 supported? ##### Will the server run faster if assign more than 3 threads to DimThread? ##### Can i use DimThread if i have less threads on my CPU than dimensions? ##### How is the compatibility with other mods? ##### What about older versions of Minecraft? —<\/p>\n ### License<\/p>\n DimThread is licensed under MIT, a free and open-source license.

\nDimThread aims to conserve vanilla-parity in all points. At the moment there are no known deviations in behaviour from Mojangs`server.jar`. If you notice any, feel free to open an issue.<\/p>\n
\nAs stated above this is **NOT** the case. DimThread will always synchronize the dimensions it threads with each other, setting the overall MSPT to the slowest individual dimension.<\/p>\n
\nYes, but you will have to adjust the GameRule accordingly.<\/p>\n
\nNo, the mod can only assign one dimension to one thread.<\/p>\n
\nThe mod will not crash if you do not have enough threads available, but it will make the game **slower**. You should always have atleast`DimensionCount + 1`threads available.<\/p>\n
\nCompatibility with JellySquids performance mods and Carpet will be ensured and issues concerning them are accepted. If you plan on using a different mod compatibility cannot be guaranteed, since not every author writes their mod threadsafe.<\/p>\n
\nDimThread is written with 1.16 compatibility in mind, older versions are currently not considered. If you play on 1.12 you can use a similar project maintained by 2No2Name.<\/p>\n
