Fabulously Optimized

A simple modpack for people who are used to having Forge and OptiFine and are curious to see what equivalents Fabric has to offer. You could consider this modpack a "starting point" to optimize your game before adding more functional mods or you could just play this as if it was vanilla - the choice is yours.

The pack only adds performance and graphics enhancements to the client, so it works on every world and server.

Included mods

The selected mods are inspired, but not limited by the list of Optifine alternatives.

Starting with 2.0, the modpack also improves the default settings.

Smooth

• Sodium - optimizes general rendering to improve FPS, adds some graphics options
• Lithium - optimizes game physics and chunk loading
• Phosphor - optimizes light rendering
• Hydrogen¹ - reduces RAM usage
• FerriteCore - reduces RAM usage
• EntityCulling Fabric/Forge - stops rendering entities that are behind a wall, useful in large servers and mobfarms
• FastChest - makes chest rendering less intensive (more FPS on chest rooms!)
• Better Beds - makes bed rendering less intensive (more FPS on villager farms!)
• LazyDFU - makes the game startup faster
• No Fade - makes game startup and resourcepack switch faster by removing fade animations
• Smooth Boot - improves the overall responsiveness of the game (aka less likely to freeze)

• Smooth Scrolling Everywhere - makes the scrolling smooth on various menus

Pretty

• Sodium Extra - adds many toggles to Sodium settings: animations, particles, weather, FPS indicator and more

Functional
