Sodium Crash: PojavLauncher Is Not Supported

What it looks like in the log

java.lang.RuntimeException: It appears that you are using PojavLauncher, which is not supported when using Sodium.

How to fix it

  1. Open your PojavLauncher instance's mods folder and remove the Sodium .jar file.
  2. Remove any installed mods that require Sodium to run, such as Iris Shaders, Sodium Extra, Indium, or Reese's Sodium Options.
  3. Keep non-rendering performance mods like Lithium and FerriteCore if desired, as they do not use desktop OpenGL features and remain compatible with PojavLauncher.
  4. To play with Sodium enabled, switch to a supported desktop computer (Windows, macOS, or Linux) using a standard desktop Minecraft launcher.
