    In the beginning of its history, Minecraft had Forge, the one big modloader. Now we have Forge, Neoforged, Fabric and its fork Quilt, how did this happen? Where did it go wrong? Who ate my sandwich? Lets dive into this first part of the history of Modded minecraft together!

    Something I will add for those who own Optifine capes.
    There is a mod called "capes" (yes shocking I know..) and it allows you to use your Optifine cape (along with other capes) on both Forge and Fabric.
    So if you used Optifine specifically for your custom cape. You don't need to anymore. Just get Fabric, Sodium, and the capes mod and you're good.

    >Incompatibility with newer mods and especially with Fabric for some reason
    Fabric barely changes vanilla's game code and heavily relies on mixins. For mixin to work, the place where it tries to patch the code should not be modified by anything else or at worst by other mixin only (so it still can be recognized by loader when trying to apply the mixin). Since OF literally takes and yeets big chunks of vanilla's code, it's more surprising when it manages to work rather than not. Same goes for attempts to try and put server plugins on Fabric btw. Most of plugin loaders also rely on this method of doing things heavily

    Hey! Just want to offer some clarifications, and some additional infomation
    1:57 - OptiFine was created and maintained solely by sp614x, there are no additional developers
    8:03 - This jump distance is due to a minuscule difference in the result from using sin() and cos() math functions, returning a number that is a 0.00001 off from the intended value in very very specific circumstances, not something that a user would ever reasonably run into. This can also have the opposite side effect, resulting in a shortened distance. Additionally, the difference in terrain general is single blocks in highly specific circumstances (ie swapping a singular stone for a dirt)
    Regarding update speeds, OptiFine used to rely on MCP (Minecraft Coders Pack) to decompile the game, which was discontinued after 1.12. As a result, sp614x has to update his own private fork of MCP himself, which can not be redistributed due to the MCP license. This significantly slowed things down

      Because maybe you are on a potato PC, and you want just the optimization features. you don't want shaders as you can't even run them, and having that functionality and changes necessary to allow them affects performance.
      Same with connected textures.
      Or customized entity models, or giving them Element Animation style.... animations..
      I'd prefer they coordinate releases a little better (have had a launcher update Sodium before Iris had support for the newer version before, always fun), but the modularity lets you keep it to just features you need / want.

      I agree with this, a lot of resource packs also that need some of these features optifine provides either don't exist for forge or they just don't exist as their own mod at all
      hopefully with neoforge becoming a thing this will eventually happen but until then, it will have to be waiting
      an example for this is that I'm using the Faithless resource pack and I had to go in the files and delete some chest things related to optifine because my chests were invisible without optifine
      another thing I guess is custom colours or custom skyboxes are not yet a thing outside of optifine so I'm really hoping these can come to be at some point
      also the way optifine handles loading resource packs, I found I had to restart my entire game if I wanted to make changes to resource packs whereas with optifine I can just unload the resource pack and do any changes I want to that specific file

    This problem with Optifine breaking large portions of the game isnt just mod incompatibility, its also vanilla. In minecraft maps that rely on heavy datapack tech, we have to actively detect and warn players to not use optifine because it changes how commands work in ways that cause many inconsistent bugs, and we cant develop for optifine and vanilla at the same time.

  • @cubed.public
    @cubed.public 2 หลายเดือนก่อน +50

    To answer the first question:
    A lot of these mods ends with -ium because they are named after elements. JellySquid started this trend with Sodium and Lithium, then forks that recreated it mimicked this like Rubidium and Radium. BTW, the reason a lot of elements end with -ium is because it's a suffix for metallic elements.
    The -ium was so catchy that similar mods to Sodium began being named after it even if they don't have a corresponding element, like Embeddium, Nvidium, so on.
    Iris is NOT a performance mod and was not made my JellySquid. It simply adds shaders to Sodium, which is why they named their mod after "eyes" instead of the element naming.
    There are other "elements" mods that don't end with -ium: Phosphor (overshadowed by Starlight), Hydrogen (overshadowed by FerriteCore), and Krypton

    I still play on 1.7.10 so optfine does a good job there, even tho now we got some cool stuff from the gregtech new horizons people, like the Angelica (Sodium port for 1.7.10 if I'm not mistaken) and LWGJL 3 for 1.7.10 and also the Hodgepodge (fix a lot of stuff from old versions). For newer versions sodium for sure.

    A few small points:
    -Optifabric does make it more compatible in a lot of situations.
    -there are outher stuff the server checks for than flying. For example teleporting.
    And there is good reson it doesn't do that as computing movment and line of sight etc. On the server is expensive. And minecraft already has a performance problem.
    -the fly check in vanilla is extremly easy circumvented and not really an actuall anticheat.
    -for the full optifine suite you also need continuity for optifines resorcepack features. Those are really nice.

    I can't even remember if I ever used OptiFine at any point, most especially back then because I barely ever knew how to load mods into the game and mod loaders were just... It was a weird space to navigate far back and by the time I got into being able to use proper mods and even modded clients, Fabric and all the mods associated with it existed, which... Basically broke the whole point of even using OptiFine, let alone Forge outside of some minor exceptions.
    To this day now, I only play totally vanilla for the snapshots and then whenever using mods, it's usually just Fabric and/or Essential client (in some cases), and then either using the Sodium+Iris suite or just my usual of sticking to the VulkanMod with some extras for optimization. In fact, Fabric and VulkanMod with some stuff like EntityCulling, Chunky, Bobby, and Krypton are my go-tos these days, since I don't do a lot and shaders are very secondary for minimal instances.
