Purpur or Fabric

[grave quiver]

Hey so Im currently running a fabric server with some epic world gen mods like WWOO, Terralith, Terratonic, Incendium, etc. All world gen mods mainly, Im using fabric in tandem with a ton of server optimization mods, like ferritecore, servercore, phosphor, etc. However I saw that purpur is very efficient, would it be better to switch to purpur? Im running a server where vanilla and geyser clients can join, and if I did switch, could I import the same world?

purpur is a paper/spigot fork, so you cannot run any mods on it

[grave quiver]

Yes dude I know that

[empty garden]

well then it depends on what is most important to you

if you don't care about the mods, then yes, def go for purpur

if you want the stick with the mods you can only use fabric

[grave quiver]

How good is their chunk loading that’s what I’m most concerned about

[empty garden]

it's better than fabric's, that's for sure

but you won't be able to spam elytra either

[grave quiver]

☹️

[empty garden]

and render distance should prob still stay at 7-8

[grave quiver]

Guess I’ll stick to fabric and create my own mods then

[empty garden]

either way you're not going to be able to get to that kind of speed without the hardwarer

software only takes you so far

[grave quiver]

Hardwares fine I’m running premium

Also I’ve noticed that a lot of plugins aren’t in purpur

[empty garden]

purpur is a fork of paper/spigot so it supports all paper/spigot plugins

[grave quiver]

Automatically?

I see

[empty garden]

thats good but you need way better hardware than that to be able to spam elytra speeds in latest versions

[empty garden]

yes, it's a hard fork

it retains all the features of paper

[grave quiver]

Idk I’ve been able to spam elytra so far

My chunks load insanely fast

[empty garden]

yea it works for like a few minutes

but then the chunk loader stops catching up

esp if you are generating new ones

[grave quiver]

I’ve tested it and it loads faster than I can fly for a while besides massive mountains

And that’s because I have tectonic installed lol

[empty garden]

that doesn't make it faster

it makes it slower

anyways it depends on your specific setup at the end of the day

i tested this on my own server a year ago

i'm not a big elytra-spamming person

[grave quiver]

That’s what I said…

I’m saying it doesn’t work on mountains

[empty garden]

ok either way

you can just try it and see

that's the best way to tell

[grave quiver]

Alright I guess I’ll stick to fabric tbh
