    Two modders have stepped in together to deliver a new performance optimization tool. Works exceptionally well for me, my FPS has increased by about 50% in some places.
    Hello everybody,

    OptiFog 1.7.3_HD_C
    (supports HD textures and HD fonts, MCPatcher not needed)

    this mod adds a lot of options for better looks and performance. Doubling the FPS is common.
    Moves fog away, adds mipmaps, chunk loading control (mod CAF), Smooth FPS, brightness control, VSync and many other.

    Download OptiFog + Optimine 1.7.3_HD_C (fixed BetterGrass, options Sky and Stars): Download 1, Download 2
    Download OptiFog + Optimine 1.7.3_HD_B (fine tuned Advanced OpenGL, +30% FPS possible): Download 1, Download 2
    Download OptiFog + Optimine 1.7.3_HD_A (added 2-pass water rendering, option to turn off weather, dynamic water and lava for texture packs): Download 1, Download 2
    Download OptiFog + Optimine 1.7.3_HD (faster Smooth FPS): Download 1, Download 2

    If the Adf.ly link redirects you to a survey just click "Back" and as soon as it loads the real Adf.ly page click "Stop" and then reload the page.

    Standalone OptiFog to follow.

    For ModLoader: Install OptiFog AFTER ModLoader.
    For MCPatcher (HD Textures): Install OptiFog without the "ji.class" (the mipmaps and fog distance will not be active). For HD fonts install without the "sj.class". Note that MCPatcher is NOT needed for HD textures and HD fonts.
    Compatible with: ModLoader, SinglePlayerCommands, TooManyItems, PlasticCraft, CJB's Modpack, Zan's Minimap and many other.
    Not compatible with: GSLS Shaders, DynamicLights, MinecraftExtended.

    Optimine 1.7.3
    This mod improves FPS, especially for slower computers. Gains of 20FPS and more are common. Originally by Scaevolus.

    Download Optimine 1.7.3 (ported to 1.7.3): Download 1, Download 2

    The standalone OptiMine and OptiFog are not compatible with each other, use the combined version.

    Lag Spike of Death 1.7.3
    (included in OptiFog and Optimine)
    This fixes the annoying Lag Spike of Death, for more info: http://www.minecraft...ebreaking-bugs/

    Download LagSpikeOfDeath 1.7.3 (included in OptiFog and Optimine): Download 1, Download 2
