Digital Dreams has shared a video, showcasing Minecraft running in 8K on an NVIDIA GeForce RTX4090 with an amazing realistic physics mod.
The Minecraft Physics Mod Pro features a lot of cool physics effects. For instance, it has snow terrain deformation, smoke physics, liquid physics and wind/cloth physics. Players can also destroy blocks and interact with their debris, which is really, really cool.
As you will see in the following video, most of these physics effects look great. The only one that did not impress me at all was the liquid physics. To be honest, the water felt more like a gel with this mod. Other than that, everything else looked amazing.
The only downside here is that Minecraft Physics Mod Pro is behind a Patreon-wall. There is a Lite version that you can download from here. However, most of the aforementioned features we listed are only available in the Pro version.
Enjoy!

Still, the PC platform won him over consoles. That was mainly due to 3DFX and its iconic dedicated 3D accelerator graphics card, Voodoo 2.

8K gaming is just a pipe dream for current hardware, and highly over hyped as well. There aren’t enough 4K gamers out in the wild, let alone 8K, nor the hardware supporting this high resolution.
There’s more to a game than just the resolution, honestly spekaing.
As an example, there’s a reason the Final Fantasy VII Remake isn’t just a port of the original game offered up at 4K resolution. The textures and models in the original game have low resolutions and limited polygon counts. Take the character model for Cloud, which has few enough polygons that you can count them, and most of which are a single, flat color.
Modern game models have polygon counts in the tens of thousands, with detailed textures applied to them. Looking at the character model for Cloud in the FFVII Remake, you’ll struggle to identify individual polygons, let alone count them.
As games have advanced, so have the details of game assets. All of those visual enhancements require a bit of a gaming system’s processing power.
Even if you turn down a bunch of settings or get some future hardware that can handle 8K better, it all comes down to this:
You probably won’t see an improvement outside of very limited cases. Once technology hit 4K, we reached a point of diminishing returns from further increases in resolution.
That’s because 4K displays already tend to have such a high pixel density that you can’t see the individual pixels, so squeezing more pixels between those already tightly packed pixels won’t make a perceivable difference.
If you have 20/20 vision, you’d need to be less than four feet away from a 55-inch TV for 8K to offer a noticeable improvement over 4K, or you’d need to be about 2 feet away from a 35-inch 8K monitor. Any farther away, which you likely will be, and 4K is going to get the job done.
In fact, you’re much more likely to notice the lower frame rate or reduced graphical settings you sacrificed to achieve an 8K picture.
So, if you dial down your in-game graphics settings and buy expensive hardware that can’t really handle 8K anyway, the only thing you’ll get out of it is several million extra pixels you won’t even be able to see.
While 8K might be a reality, there’s not a lot of feasibility there. And there are much better things than resolution for hardware and software developers to focus on.
BTW, the above Realistic Physics Mod looks good though, nonetheless.
1440 on 27″ is eyewateringly sharp, more than enough real estate without any neck or eye sore. I honestly don’t understand 4K people. Why? I bet it’s the megalomaniac americans behind this meme. they always want bigger things
Minecraft looks incredible in 8K haha its Minecraft wont look good in any resolution.
Indeed, kinda fedup seeing posts about this pointless game tbh.
@John Papadopoulos, I get that websites need news articles.
But like @Metal Messiah has commented, 8k is completely pointless and imho not news worthy.
