Getting Started
Simply find the Crucial 2 guide. In survival it'll be in your inventory. In creative, you can search for it. It'll get you all the info you need to get going.

Using Optifine - Optifine is not compatible by default, as the pack runs Sodium (the Magnesium port). If you want to use Optifine or even Shaders, be prepared for a steep FPS decrease. You can remove Sodium and its supplemental mods by deleting the following mods from the mods folder: magnesium....jar, magnesium_extras....jar, RoadRunner....jar
