Research direction
Check the rendering code for chunk reloading, likely in the LWJGL or game initialization code. Investigate why Sodium below 0.5 causes a crash, possibly due to incompatible GL calls. Look at the crash log provided and compare with Sodium's source code to identify the missing check.
