Everything you get with one free download: a client for Minecraft: Java Edition with tuned performance mods, a HUD you lay out and restyle, shareable profiles and voice chat, and Nether Launcher to run it and your other instances. Each picture is a real screen from the current build. What makes it fast, with every mod credited and our own work explained, is on the performance page.

Performance
Bundled mods, kept up to date, and our own performance patches

No version hunting
The launcher keeps the whole set up to date, so you never track mod versions by hand.
perf / 04
Fabric API and Mod Menu
Installed alongside, so the Fabric mods you add yourself have what they need.
perf / ours
Performance patches we wrote ourselves
On top of the bundled mods, Nether Client ships performance patches we write ourselves. They go after work the game repeats every frame without needing to, mostly in the moments that hurt most on big servers: a screen full of players, text and interface. We do not publish how they work.
Where they helpBusy servers and text-heavy screens.
What they never doChange what you see, change gameplay or give you an advantage.
Always reversibleEach one can be turned off by support if it ever misbehaves on your machine.
Open the HUD editor and drag to move, scroll to resize, right-click to hide. Hold Shift to place freely.
hud / fps
FPS
Your frame rate, with the low and average of the last five seconds.
hud / coords
Coordinates
Where you are, which way you face, the biome and the dimension.
hud / cps
CPS
Left and right clicks per second.
hud / armour
Armour status
Armour and held items, with durability as a percentage.
hud / sprint
Toggle sprint and sneak
Press once to keep sprinting or sneaking.
hud / zoom
Zoom
Zoom in on what is far away, then back out.
hud / look
Every element's look, yours
Each module has its own look settings, and you can apply one look to all of them:
colours
font
weight
shadow
panel
border
corner radius
padding
scale
opacity
the words themselves
hud / colour
Solid, rainbow or gradient
Any colour, picked by hex or swatch, with optional animation.
03
Profiles
Save, share and browse whole setups
profiles / switch
Profiles
A profile saves a whole setup: which modules are on, where they sit and how they look. Switch between setups from the hub.
profiles / share
Share as a file or a code
Export a profile as a file or copy a share code; import either one the same way. Audio devices, volumes and key bindings stay on your computer.
profiles / gallery
A public profile gallery
Inside the client, browse profiles by most likes or newest, search by name or code, then like, use or publish your own.
profiles / sign-in
Signed in with Minecraft, not a password
Liking, reporting and publishing sign you in with your Minecraft account through Mojang's own session check. No password or token is sent to us. Browsing needs no sign-in.
04
Hub
Right Shift, in any world or menu
hub
Every module, searchable, settings beside it
Press Right Shift to open the hub. Find a module with /, turn it on and change its options without leaving the screen. It works at every GUI scale and window size.
hub / home
Its own home screen
Singleplayer, Multiplayer and Realms in one panel.
hub / pause
And its own pause menu
Prefer the originals? Both switch back to the vanilla screens.
05
Voice
Built in, on servers that support it
voice / settings
Voice chat without another mod
Off until you turn it on. Pick a microphone, choose voice activity or push to talk, set the threshold and gain, and test it before you join.
voice / overlay
See who is talking
Speaking indicators and player heads in the corner you choose.
06
Nether Launcher
Comes with the client, updates itself
launcher / instances
As many instances as you like
Fabric or vanilla, each with its own version, mods, memory and worlds.
launcher / modrinth
Mods from Modrinth
Search and filter, install in one click with required dependencies, then update or uninstall from the same list.
launcher / basics
The parts you would otherwise do by hand
Microsoft sign-inIn your browser, with several accounts.
Java, handledThe right runtime is installed for you.
Your own .jar filesDrag and drop them onto an instance.
Updates itselfNo reinstalling for new versions.
07
Fair play and privacy
What it does not do
servers
A client, not a cheat
Use it on any server. It has no features that give an unfair advantage: no reach, no x-ray, nothing that plays for you.
privacy
What leaves your computer
The client sends pseudonymous performance reports, which you can switch off. The launcher talks to Modrinth for mods and to Microsoft and Mojang for sign-in. No ads. Everything it sends.
