BetterDrops optimizes dropped items by merging them into infinite stacks to reduce lag and displays holographic names with counts for easy identification. Fully configurable in-game.
BetterDrops is a quality-of-life mod designed to improve how dropped items behave in Minecraft. It reduces server lag by merging nearby items and provides clear visual information to the player.
No more guessing! Automatically shows item names and counts floating above the items.
Visual Style: High-contrast text (White Name + Yellow Count) that is always readable, e.g., Diamond (x128).
Performance Optimized: Only renders when you are nearby.
Infinite Stacking: Overcomes the vanilla limit of 64! Items on the ground can merge into massive stacks (e.g., x1000+) to significantly reduce entity count and lag.
Radius Control: Items automatically merge within a configurable radius (Default: 5 blocks).
Safe Logic: Enchanted items or items with special NBT data will not merge to prevent data loss.
Even if a stack on the ground has 500 items, picking it up works perfectly. The mod intelligently fills your inventory stack by stack.
Press '0' to open the Settings Menu.
Toggle Item Names (On/Off).
Toggle Item Merging (On/Off).
Adjust Merge Radius (1-10 Blocks) via a slider.
All changes apply instantly without restarting the game.
