🧭 Version Compatibility Matrix & Environmental Specifications
📌 Repository Source Disclaimer: The documentation in this Wiki reflects the current source code state in the repository, which may include recent unreleased commits or developmental features ahead of public release builds on CurseForge and Modrinth.
📊 Minecraft Multi-Version Support Matrix
Vanilla Outsider: Velocity Render strictly adheres to the 1 Jar 1 Version Policy. Each supported Minecraft release is maintained in its sovereign subproject directory to guarantee compile-time and runtime lockstep parity.
| Target Minecraft | Status | Toolchain | Loom Version | Client Queue Target | Mod Dependency |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MC 26.3 | Modern Lead | Java 25+ | net.fabricmc.fabric-loom 1.15+ | SectionTaskDynamicQueue | dasik-library >= 1.8.0 |
| MC 26.2 | Modern Predecessor | Java 25+ | net.fabricmc.fabric-loom 1.15+ | SectionTaskDynamicQueue | dasik-library >= 1.8.0 |
| MC 26.1 (26.1.2) | Modern Anchor | Java 25+ | net.fabricmc.fabric-loom 1.15+ | CompileTaskDynamicQueue | dasik-library >= 1.8.0 |
⚙️ Runtime & Environment Dependencies
| Component | Minimum Bound | Recommended Version | Technical Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Fabric Loader | >= 0.18.4 | Latest Stable | Required for Java 25 bytecode loading and modern Mixin 0.8+ support |
| Fabric API | * (Any matching MC version) | Latest Release | Provides lifecycle events (ServerTickEvents, ClientTickEvents, CommandRegistrationCallback) |
| Dasik Library | >= 1.8.0 | 1.8.0+ | Powers namespaced dynamic GameRule management and reflection-safe category registry unfreezing |
| Java Virtual Machine | Java 25 | JDK 25 LTS | Modern foreign memory, vector API compatibility, and high-performance GC |
🎨 Graphics Pipeline & Shader Compatibility
1. Sodium / Embeddium / Iris Shaders
- 100% Fully Compatible: You Run Fast operates exclusively on:
- Section task scheduling priority (
SectionTaskDynamicQueue/CompileTaskDynamicQueue). - Server ticket loading queues (
ServerChunkCache/TicketType.PLAYER_LOADING).
- Section task scheduling priority (
- It does not alter vertex formats, geometry pipelines, or shader uniform buffers. As a result, modern rendering engines like Sodium and Iris run alongside You Run Fast without any visual artifacts.
2. Canvas & Nvidium
- Compatible: Task queue injection intercepts candidate section polling without interfering with Nvidium mesh compilation or Canvas pipeline passes.
3. OptiFine
- Incompatible: OptiFine relies on closed-source, monolithic class replacements that completely overwrite Minecraft's chunk rendering pipeline, breaking Fabric Mixin injection points. OptiFine is neither tested nor supported.
