Model Gap Fix — FAQ

Compatibility

Model Gap Fix is purely client-side and only touches item-model generation, which makes it broadly compatible:

  • Resource packs - works with vanilla and custom item textures, including higher-resolution packs.
  • Shaders - no conflict, since it changes model geometry at bake time rather than rendering.
  • Other mods - applies to modded items exactly as it does to vanilla ones.
  • Servers - only needs to be installed on the client; it has no server-side component.

It is safe to add to or remove from an existing world at any time.

Troubleshooting

  • I do not see a difference. The seams the mod fixes are subtle by design. Compare a flat item's edge closely, or view items at a shallow angle, with and without the mod.
  • An item still looks off. Reload resources (leave and rejoin the world, or press the reload-textures key) so item models re-bake with the fix applied.
  • Nothing loads. Make sure the mod is installed correctly and that the file is in the correct mods folder.

FAQ

Does it change how items look? Only by removing the gaps - item size, texture, and shape stay the same.

Does it affect gameplay? No. It is purely visual and client-side.

Do I need it on a server? No. Install it on the client only.

Can I add or remove it safely? Yes, at any time, on any world.
