Glitch177 Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Anyone know why Tekkit lite does not include Optifine in the mod pack? Its kind of weird since its always updated to the most recent version of Minecraft all the time and it doesn't clash with any of the mods currently in Tekkit lite. Any thoughts? Quote
theprolo Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 The mod author hasn't given the Technicpack permission to use Optifine in modpacks. In fact, he's blanket denied any modpacks from using Optifine. Quote
Glitch177 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Posted January 14, 2013 Then why is it in Tekkit classic? Quote
theprolo Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Because the Technic team ignored permissions back then. They don't anymore. Quote
KaosC57 Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 someone needs to start a revolt against this issue. Optifine is such a usefull thing why does he hurt us by not letting us use it in modpacks? its like he is giving us cake but not letting us eat it, it makes you want to slap him and take the cake and eat it whole...

There's many different versions for a reason. Some people need the Ultra Edition. Others need the Multicore, and some people just need Standard or Light. Maybe the creator of OptiFine would allow a modpack if it prompted the user which OptiFine version to install. And OptiFine doesn't conflict with any other mods AFAIK. Quote

Well, would you personally like to send him a strongly worded letter demanding he let Optifine be included in the Technic/Tekkit modpack? (Don't actually, it will make us look like assholes, and I was being sarcastic.) Quote
FISHY1254 Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 How will we use different texture packs now? Quote
BurningCake Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 How will we use different texture packs now? I believe Forge has built in HD Texture Pack support now? I'm using one without Optifine in my game now... Quote

It would not make us look like assholes. we are simply trying to allow everyone to use something that they know and love and will always use nomatter what. its like water we use it so much that we need it and without it we die...

Ultra does not harm computers that cant handle it becasue its the most customisable one out there... if you cant handle the high rez texturepacks then you need a new computer, its that simple... (yea im a double posting *** deal with it) Quote
Erazor Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 Just install Optifine if you want or need it. Now you can pick which one you want for even more customization. Quote
collybolly Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 So, if he denies permission to put it in a modpack, does that mean no optifine in custom zips? Quote
LazDude2012 Posted January 14, 2013 Posted January 14, 2013 It means no optifine in public custom zips. If you want to use optifine in a private server pack, you're more than welcome to do so. Quote
Glitch177 Posted January 14, 2013 Author Posted January 14, 2013 well lately his Optifine has been built so you could use the most powerful version and just turn on or off the features you need. But I still don't see why its not added in. Granted its fairly simple to install yourself. But i wish you could just click and drag the zip into the mods folder instead of patching it in to the mods.jar folder. Quote

bwillb Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 So, if he denies permission to put it in a modpack, does that mean no optifine in custom zips? It means if you put it in a custom zip and distribute it, you'd be going against the author's wishes. I doubt anyone would stop you, but certain sections of the modded minecraft community might send you hate mail. Quote
Durkadur Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Greatly misses 'Clear water' and 'Better grass' Anyone know a guide to add OptiFine to Tekkit Lite? Quote
zarb Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 apparantly the optifine guy still thinks that you can make a living from 0.0005c per click via adfly. shows how deluded he really is. luckily when he turned town mojang they said that they were simply gonna implement something even better, so you can probably expect optifine to die once mojang's done with their gfx engine rewrite, hoorray.

Teraku Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Greatly misses 'Clear water' and 'Better grass' Anyone know a guide to add OptiFine to Tekkit Lite? Yes. Install it in modpack.jar. Done. Quote

I surely hope so. The lack of multicore support in the current rendering engine is downright atrocious. We will most likely have much greater flexibility with textures, though. The most recent snapshot shows custom animated textures at resolutions that differ from surrounding areas. Quote

That looks pretty fake. If it was real and he was smart enough to pull that off, then he'd be smart enough to take a few steps closer. But it looks less fake from a further away viewpoint. Quote

But it looks less fake from a further away viewpoint. He provides instructions and downloads to test it out yourself. You can also see stars moving in the background. While not necessarily an indication of genuinity, it does show that the surrounding area moves forward in time, too. Unless he used a completely separate video of Minecraft where he stands still and waits for stars to move for over 2 minutes. Quote

Is that the actual amount they get from each click? Quote
GreenWolf13 Posted January 15, 2013 Posted January 15, 2013 Is that the actual amount they get from each click? No, it's more. With ad.fly you get less than a fraction of a fraction of a fraction of a cent. Quote
