Frequently asked questions

What does Enhanced Block Entities actually do?

It replaces the way Minecraft renders certain block entities—like chests, signs, beds, shulker boxes, bells, and decorated pots—with optimized models instead of the default entity renderer. This reduces lag and boosts FPS, especially in areas with lots of these blocks, while keeping their normal animations.

Do I need to install anything else for Enhanced Block Entities to work?

The mod is designed to work alongside a rendering optimization mod like Sodium, and it typically needs an entity-rendering API such as Entity Model Features or the Fabric rendering API depending on your loader. Check the mod's dependencies on its download page and install them together.

How do I know Enhanced Block Entities is actually working?

You should notice higher FPS in storage rooms and other block-entity-heavy areas, and chests, signs, and beds should still open and animate normally. If a block looks flat, static, or wrong, the mod may be conflicting with a resource pack or another rendering mod.

Why do my chests look wrong or have no opening animation after installing this mod?

This usually happens when a resource pack or another mod overrides the block entity models in a way Enhanced Block Entities can't handle. Try disabling other rendering mods or resource packs one at a time to find the conflict, and make sure your resource pack is compatible with the mod's model format.
