Overview

MCJEBooster is an independent third-party software injection project that optimizes Minecraft Java Edition through JVM-level multi-core scheduling. It is NOT a Minecraft Mod - it is a standalone injection tool that attaches to running Minecraft processes.

Key Features

• Multi-Core Tick Processing: Distributes Minecraft's tick loop across multiple CPU cores
• Region-Based Scheduling: Divides the world into regions for parallel processing
• Dynamic Load Balancing: Automatically adjusts region allocation based on workload
• High Compatibility: Works with vanilla Minecraft, Forge, Fabric, and various launchers
• Auto-Rollback: Automatically restores vanilla behavior if issues are detected

Usage

Requirements

• Java 17 or higher (JDK required, not just JRE)
• Minecraft Java Edition (1.8.9 - 1.26.1+)
• Windows 10/11 (Linux support planned)

Installation

1. Download the latest release from GitHub
2. Place MCJEBooster-26.1-05102026.jar in any directory
3. Run Minecraft first
4. Run the injector:

java -jar MCJEBooster-26.1-05102026.jar

Command Line Options

java -jar MCJEBooster-26.1-05102026.jar [options]

Options:
  --auto      Automatically inject into the first Minecraft process
  --force     Skip confirmation prompts
  --help      Display help message

Alternative: Java Agent Mode

Add to JVM arguments:

-javaagent:/path/to/MCJEBooster-26.1-05102026.jar

Technical Details

Injection Mechanism

MCJEBooster uses two injection methods:

1. Primary: Java Attach API

   • Dynamically attaches to running JVM
   • No modification to Minecraft installation
   • Works with all launchers

2. Fallback: Windows CreateRemoteThread

   • Native Windows API injection
   • Used when Attach API is unavailable
   • Requires code signing for antivirus compatibility

Bytecode Transformation

Uses ASM library to transform:

• MinecraftServer.tick() - Main tick loop
• ChunkProvider.tick() - Chunk processing
• Level.tickEntities() - Entity processing

Region Scheduling

• Z-Order Curve: Spatial partitioning for cache efficiency
• ForkJoinPool: Java's work-stealing thread pool
• CyclicBarrier: Synchronization at tick boundaries
• Dynamic Rebalancing: Adjusts regions every 100 ticks

Safety Features

Health Monitoring

• TPS Monitoring: Automatically detects low TPS
• Deadlock Detection: Monitors for thread deadlocks
• Auto-Rollback: Restores vanilla behavior on failure
• Timeout Handling: Falls back to single-threaded mode

Safety Thresholds

Metric	Threshold	Action
TPS	< 5.0	Trigger rollback
Tick Timeout	45ms	Cancel and retry
Consecutive Failures	5	Disable injection
Deadlock	Any detected	Emergency rollback

Troubleshooting

Common Issues

"No Minecraft processes found"

• Ensure Minecraft is running before running the injector
• Check that you're using the Java Edition, not Bedrock

"AttachNotSupportedException"

• Ensure you're using JDK, not JRE
• Add --add-opens java.instrument/sun.instrument=ALL-UNNAMED to JVM args

"Windows Defender blocked injection"

• This is expected for unsigned executables
• The tool is safe but may trigger false positives
• Consider using Java Agent mode instead

Low TPS after injection

• Check logs for errors
• The tool automatically rolls back on failure
• Report the issue with logs attached

Debug Mode

Enable debug logging:

java -Dmcjebooster.log.level=DEBUG -jar MCJEBooster-26.1-05102026.jar
