Template:Wip Optimine is a Minecraft:mod created by Ryan 'Scaevolus' Hitchman in 2010 that adds performance improvements to Minecraft:Minecraft. Features from optimine were integrated into vanilla Minecraft, and Ryan Hitchman is credited in the Minecraft:credit sequence as "additional programming".<ref>https://www.minecraftforum.net/forums/mapping-and-modding-java-edition/minecraft-mods/1272374-v1-3-optimine-fps-boost-optimization-updated</ref>
Features
Optimine mostly aims to boost FPS. Components include:
- FastRender: more efficient chunk queue processing.
- UniText: a completely rewritten text renderer. It's faster and supports Unicode, although the Unicode font files are not included with this release.
- Fewer glClears: erasing the entire screen is expensive. This mod avoids it when possible.
- Better chunk drawing code: Removing a few useless transforms from the chunk rendering code lets all visible chunks be drawn in a straightforward manner.
- Better Tesselation: Modified for speed. TNT explosions no longer cause clients to have horrible lag, and everything in general should feel faster.
- Error handling: Don't go to a black screen when there's an OpenGL error. Print a decent error message to the command line instead.
