About
Context: For a long time, OptiFine has been a big part of Minecraft modding.
For an equal amount of time, it has been causing errors with mods – its closed source nature making it especially hard to work with as a mod developer.
For that reason, a lot of alternatives have been created.
But usually they only replicate one specific feature of OptiFine, meaning the user has to install a lot of mods and configure them by searching for the specific mod in ModMenu.
- The first problem is relatively easy to solve, by either downloading a modpack such as <a href="https://modrinth.com/modpack/fabulously-optimized">Fabulously Optimized</a> or using <a href="https://lambdaurora.dev/optifine_alternatives">Lambda's fantastic list of alternative mods</a>
- Puzzle was created to solve the latter by providing a <b>united config for OptiFine replacement mods</b> with built-in support for the most relevant alternatives and an API for other mods to take advantage of.
- Due to many OptiFine features still having no replacement mod, Puzzle also adds certain OptiFine features on it's own, like <b>resourcepack-provided splash screens</b>
- We also offer some new, innovative features to resourcepack developers, such as <b>unlocked rotation values</b> and <b>bigger size for JSON-models</b>. <br>The configuration screen can be found in the vanilla options screen, as well as ModMenu.
