GpuShift 1.2.4 Hotfix

This update includes two compatibility hotfixes for modded render contexts.

Smart Culling Compat Fix

Fixed incorrect smart entity culling in preview and GUI render contexts.

Fixed

• Easy Villagers preview/fake villagers are now protected from entity culling.
• Alex’s Mobs book/GUI preview entities are now protected from entity culling.
• Smart culling still works normally for real distant entities in the world.

Create Aeronautics FPS Fix

Fixed a severe FPS drop with Create Aeronautics bundled 1.21.1 on NeoForge, where moving contraptions could drop the game to around 1 FPS, especially when driving downward.

Fixed

• Added a safe compatibility guard for Aeronautics/Simulated moving sublevel rendering.
• GpuShift now skips Block Entity Budget and item frame budgeting only while Aeronautics contraptions are rendering.
• Normal Block Entity Budget behavior is preserved outside Aeronautics contraption render paths.
• The rest of GpuShift’s optimizations remain active.

Compatibility

• No hard dependency on Create Aeronautics or Simulated.
• If those mods are not installed, GpuShift works normally.

Verified

• NeoForge 1.21.1 with Create Aeronautics bundled no longer drops to 1 FPS when moving contraptions downward.
• F8/F9 controls, desktop UI, GPU particles, Auto Tune, and Benchmark remain functional.
• Far chests, signs, item frames, and other normal world objects can still be budgeted outside contraptions.
