There is also no way to change the fullscreen resolution or fps with the mod enabled

commented

You can change the resolution with the 'shift-p' keybind to call-in the default video config screen.

You need to unclick 'vsync' and/or the 'max fps' setting in the Sodium options to have more than 60 fps.

Vsync wasnt the problem. Id still get 59-60fps with or without vsync, and the frame limiter. Also i dont recall the shift-p being mentioned in the faq or anywhere on the page. Someone literally made a mod to do what the shift-p keybind does.

The problem is i was tryna run Minecraft at 1440p resolution fullscreen, which typically with optifine id reach my 160 (moniter RR) or higher. Thats quite a large difference. For 1.5x more pixels i get over 4 times less of the framerate.
On my 1080p screen i get over 250fps fullscreen.

If anyone else is having this issue, i think take into consideration how many pixels youre trying to run. If youre not getting any better fps bc youre on a 4k panel, running MC at native 4k, well theres your problem!
