Client Options

When a new Minecraft client is booted, its there's always a handful of settings I want to change (excluding keybinds which get their own page).

Video Settings

These settings will change drastically depending on the graphics optimization addons available in the pack. However, here are some common settings.

General

  • Render Distance - 24 chunks
  • Simulation Distance - 12 chunks
  • GUI Scale - 4x
  • VSync - On

Shader Pack

  • ComplementaryReimagined - A good balance between looks and FPS

Accessibility Settings

  • FOV Effects - 10% - At really high movement speeds this can get out of hand.
  • Narrator Hotkey - Off

In-Game Toggles

Once loaded into a world, there are two toggles I usually flip via built-in keybinds.

  • Advanced Item Tooltips → F3 + H
  • Pause on Lost Focus → F3 + P
