This modpack was created for those who want to substitute OptiFine without moving to fabric; or for those who have mods that are not ported to other modloaders!

Forgeulously Optimized For 1.12.2!
An (unofficial) port of Forgeulously Optimized, unfortunately, most of Optifine's features are not available for 1.12.2, there's no support for shaders or EMF and ETF (necessary for texture packs like Fresh Animations)... but even so, it has the best performance thanks to Relictium, the (almost) only port of Sodium for 1.12.2!
Below is a comparison (on a very low-resource computer) between Forgeulously Optimized and a clean installation of Optifine ↓
