**Meshelium works with Sodium now - and together they are a lot faster.** They used to be a choice: one replaced the other. Now you get both. Sodium keeps building the chunks, which is what it is best at, and Meshelium draws them with mesh shaders. Measured on a Radeon RX 9070 XT at 1920x1080, standing in the same spot in the same world: with Meshelium drawing, the frame is about **twice as fast as Sodium on its own** - 1.9x at render distance 64, and 1.8x at 96. Install both and it happens on its own; there is nothing to switch on. It works on Fabric and on NeoForge. Use **Sodium 0.9.2-beta.1**. Modrinth lists it under Versions as a beta, so you have to pick it deliberately rather than taking the top entry. The Meshelium settings screen shows which version you have and says whether it is the one this build was made for. **New setting: GPU Visibility.** On by default, and only when Sodium is installed. Meshelium works out what you can actually see on the graphics card itself, instead of drawing everything it is handed. That is what used to make the frame rate dip while you looked around. **The settings screen is shorter with Sodium installed.** The settings that only change how Meshelium builds chunks have nothing to do while Sodium is doing that job, so they are hidden. They come back if you remove Sodium. The rest of the menu is shorter and plainer throughout.
