Posted November 11, 20186 yr I have a couple of questions I have been pondering about... 1) Minecraft has this feature for loading textures. It loads these textures into RAM and then uploads them to the GPU. If the textures are not animated, Minecraft would get rid of the TextureData from your RAM, conserving your RAM. Why did forge remove this capability of removing the TextureData from your RAM that saves a ton of memory? (I believe there is a mod called "Texfix" that adds this capability back.) 2) What is the history of Minecraft Forge, (Like who inspired LexManos and other producers to make this awesome mod client?)

Whats your source for this? Also, take a look at this, its an interesting read https://github.com/MinecraftForge/MinecraftForge/issues/4862 About Me Spoiler My Discord - Cadiboo#8887 My Website - Cadiboo.github.io My Mods - Cadiboo.github.io/projects My Tutorials - Cadiboo.github.io/tutorials Versions below 1.14.4 are no longer supported on this forum.

November 12, 20186 yr Don't trust everything you read on the internet kid. Especially of it's a magic mod that suposidly increases MC performance. There is a reason why Speiger has been banned from not only Forge, but many other major MC projects. Yes, Forge keeps some extra data about the textures in memory. This is to speed up rendering, lighting, and the like. There is a triad off of some extra memory usage for massive decreases in cpu usage. And at the end of the day, RAM is cheap, CPUs are not. Also, The guy who wrote the changes Forge does is now actually employed at Mojang rewriting their rendering engine. So i'd trust his code over Speiger's. The same goes for any other "performance" mod you see out there. There are good reasons they arnt officially part of Forge. Most of those mods break other mods, simply because the deep level of control that mods have over their own data and MC. I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated. Consider supporting the team on Patreon

Make a thread on the appropriate board for support. 1.12 -> 1.13 primer by williewillus. 1.7.10 and older versions of Minecraft are no longer supported due to it's age! Update to the latest version for support. http://www.howoldisminecraft1710.today/
November 14, 20186 yr Optifine is the same issue yes, it improves SOME users, but in our testing breaks things on a lot more. If it works for you good, but don't believe it is a magic fix-all thing. Also, personal opinion here: I don't like that its closed source and hacks around internals magically, i'd much rather SEE what it is doing/claiming to do. I do Forge for free, however the servers to run it arn't free, so anything is appreciated. Consider supporting the team on Patreon
