    It should work with FTB.

    BUT BE WARNED: Even with optifine, I only get around 40FPS with the shaders on, despite getting ~200FPS on regular with optifine and a 32x32 texture pack

    tl;dr: you need a beast of a machine to play properly.

    Right, I tried the newest version of the shaders to see the difference.
    It's a big difference.

    I'll try to do some of the normal maps for faithful32 to see if I can make it look even better

    EDIT: Here are some of the normalmaps so far.

    Right, did up a few normalmaps, but unfortunately they're not intense enough to see properly so it's kinda hard to see the effect

    Without a normal map:

    With one:

    EDIT: This shows it off much better

    EDIT 2: Here's another. At this rate I'll do the entire texture pack.

    I'm kinda sad though, I was working on really nice high-resolutions normal maps until I found out that they have to be the exact same size as the texture they're applied to.

    This was going to be what was applied to stone bricks:

    Instead, this is actually what's on them (not actual size, scaled up to show the loss of detail)

    Botulism I'd love to see what some of my builds look like with all those shaders and things set up, but there's no way my laptop could handle it. Could you be persuaded to come and take a screen-cap of some of them for me? I can pay in in-game currency if you want!

    I visited your place yesterday, your builds are already so pretty, I bet they would look ridiculously good with shaders.

    The pixel art above your house gave me a good chuckle too.
