Description

Optimized Retro is a 1.12.2, lightweight, performance-focused Minecraft modpack designed to provide a smooth and stable gaming experience on one of the most iconic versions of the game. Whether you are playing on a high-end rig or a budget laptop, this pack aims to maximize your frames-per-second (FPS) and eliminate stuttering.

=====================================================================================

WHAT MAKES IT DIFFERENT FROM OTHER PACKS ?

There are lots of modpack out there for 1.12.2 but most of them dont include a mod called 'Nothirium'. You can read more about it on its official curseforge page. This mod along with all other mods will improve you fps upto 2x-5x depending on you PC.

FPS TEST

I tested it on my old laptop. Here are the specs:-

CPU-- i7-5500U

GPU-- Integrated graphics 5500

RAM-- 6gb (4gb dedicated to minecraft)

I was able to achieve 150-170 fps on a newly generated world at 1600x900 resolution (slightly below 1080p) with optimized settings

 

INCOMPATIBILITIES

A few mods are incompatible due to nothirium's optimization which includes- 

Full Incompatibilities

  • FarPlane2
  • LittleTiles
  • Albedo
  • Colored Lux

Partial Incompatibilities

  • Optifine: Make sure that 'Smart Animations' is disabled in the graphics settings. Also custom block render layers from Optifine won't work with Nothirium.
  • VanillaFix: Make sure that 'textureFixes' is disabled in the VanillaFix config.
  • CensoredASM: Make sure that 'onDemandAnimatedTextures' is disabled in the CensoredASM/LoliASM config.
