Description

This mod adds smooth fade-in and motion animations for chunk loading, like in Minecraft Bedrock Edition and ChunkAnimator, plus other unique features. It works seamlessly with Sodium, (mostly) Distant Horizons and (mostly) Iris. No more chunks appearing right in front of you out of nowhere!
