OptiFine development

[OrakMoya]

At the time of writing, forge for 1.13 is not out yet. But on the page for OptiFine they say its 70% done. How are they testing the mod without forge?

Optifine has also a non-forge version

If I guess correctly, what Optifine does is make minecraft use multiple cores to minimize the lag.

How to look at the code to follow the process? There's no 1.13 branch on Forge Github.

there is none forgegradle is getting a rewrite https://github.com/amadornes/ForgeGradle

I believe that @Draco18s said that “a certain someone has finished the initial part of forge for 1.13, but hasn’t put it up on GitHub so that everyone can contribute yet”

Quit the speculation. Ama is the one holding things back with the delay in FG3. Then cpw will port whats his rewritten modloader stuff from his 1.12 branch, and then we start on Forge. There is no hidden conspiracy to delay things from getting to you. Shit just takes time (admitadly, ama is taking way more time then he should and its starting to annoy me as well, but whatever)

 

As for Optifine, its "70% done" because the guy is using the work input into mcpconfig and backporting it to the old tool chain so he can do all his jarmodding. This is not something you as a general user should do as you need to understand what youre doing. And the tools are being rewritten so that they can deal with the the things that have changed in the years since minecraft modding began.

For reference, this is what I was referring to:

I didn't have all the details, just the answer from a more casual question that boiled down to "someone hasn't finished [whatever it is that they're doing] and that's why its not on Github." As it was a name I wasn't familiar with and the task to be done was not directly stated, I couldn't say more.

That FG3.0 branch says it's 1122 commits behind FG2.3. So it looks like it will take months or maybe a year to be completed... So is it same with Forge?...
