Enhanced Block Entities

What Enhanced Block Entities is

Enhanced Block Entities is a free, client-side Minecraft mod focused on block entity rendering performance and resource-pack customization. It replaces some entity models with baked block models, while retaining animations and rendering animated entity models only when needed. The project lists ender chests, signs, bells, beds, shulker boxes, and decorated pots among the optimized objects. Visual options include smooth lighting, remodeling block entities with block models, toggling features such as Christmas chests, and seeing block entities from farther away. Resource packs can customize block entities, including chests, and the documented API lets other mods override configuration values or trigger a reload. EBE is described as a Fabric mod, and its listing also names Quilt as a supported loader. Fabric API is required. Sodium compatibility depends on versions: EBE 0.10.2 and newer work with Sodium 0.6 and newer without additional mods; earlier versions require Indium with Sodium 0.5.11 or below. Minecraft Java Edition compatibility spans versions 1.16.2 through 1.21.4, including listed intervening releases. The project reports a 155% frame rate increase in an example rendering 1,700 chests.
