Client-Side Mods/Etc

New info regarding 1.9 client-side mods and other interesting things!

[Admin]

With the launch of Minecraft 1.9 earlier this month, many of our players have been waiting patiently for Optifine to make their move and update their mod, and just a few days ago they did just that! Now, this version of Optifine is just a preview, and has a few bugs still, but it is still worth downloading. For those of us who like using shaders (I'm definitely guilty), there is also a great shader pack you can use for Optifine that is currently functioning with 1.9 as well, both of which I will link down at the bottom of the post. If you are wondering "what is optifine?", we are here to tell you that it is the solution to all of your laggy client or high-quality needs! If you need a bit more FPS on your side, you can turn off almost anything graphics related, making the game a LOT easier to run on your system. However, if you want something that looks super flashy, you can also do that with Optifine by installing shaders, or just turning everything up a few notches!
