Forge is great with Optifine for shades and performance. Forge should either buy the rights to Optifine, or make their own version of a shader loader mod. The reason for this is while Forge comes up with an update several days after a minecraft update is released, you will be lucky if six months later Optifine uploads a beta version that is compatible for the same version as forge. I hate having to wait several months to enjuoy the new minecraft update, I just want a working shader mod. Even if Forge makes one that is simple and not nearly as good as Optifine, I would still appreciate it becasue I just want my realistic texture/shaders. Please consider this idea, thank you!
