Troubleshoot Mobs and Items Disappearing

Verify OpenGL Support

Entity culling requires OpenGL 4.4. If mobs vanish unexpectedly or flicker in and out of view:

1. Check your graphics driver version — update if outdated

2. Confirm your GPU supports OpenGL 4.4 or higher

3. Integrated graphics on older laptops may not meet requirements

Adjust Culling Sensitivity

If the mod is too aggressive and hides entities that should be visible:

1. Open your SketchRender configuration file

2. Look for entity culling settings or depth buffer sensitivity options

3. Reduce culling distance or disable entity culling temporarily to test

4. Restart your game to apply changes

When to Disable

If you experience:

  • Mobs vanishing when they're actually in view
  • Items disappearing before you can pick them up
  • Pets or named mobs becoming invisible

Temporarily disable entity culling in the config. This helps identify if SketchRender is the cause. Report consistent issues to verify compatibility with your specific hardware.
