this is my first time posting here and i am sure this has been asked before, but why doesn't mojang just include something similar to optifine in their future updates? it clearly makes them game run better and i can at least play so-so on my crappy toshiba laptop and fancy and far on my desktop because of optifine.

$20 if you know what my avatar is from. not really though.
Hey, I thought Notch said that Minecraft 1.8 won't be with java anymore (non-java minecraft = super-duper non-laggy game). Wtf happend to that? It's still in java :sad.gif:
Well no rush because we still need MCP. But when you update could you look into having an option to turn off the new lighting? This may be impossible. But if it is then I would appreciate it. I don't play Minecraft on my lap top often but my laptop (macbook pro) runs an old OS that dose not support versions of Java Higher then 5 which wasn't a problem until the lighting update. Here is what is going on.
the colors flash like a strobe light around anything that gives off light.
For me this is not a big issue because I play minecraft on my PC. However for all the people who may only have there old mac to play on they may want some sort of help here.
To be honest the 1.8 update is great. While the initial world generation is a bit slow once a few chunks are loaded I have had better performance with the game then I have had in the past. Still keep up the good work and just hold on to your boot straps because the YogsCast just plugged this mod on there lattes video. Congratulation :biggrin.gif:
Glad to see I'm not the only one with this issue.
Torches in 1.8 seem to have the opposite effect that they should have. Areas without torches are bright, whereas areas with torches get darker.
My guess is that this new lighting is just too fancy for my old toaster (or maybe just a non Windows OS?), anyhow an option to remove this new lighting would be appreciated.
If not, it's cool though.
In my case I have discovered it's and issue with my video card and not Java. However I have no idea if this can be fixed. Thank god I saved a back up of 1.7. and it is like wise nice to know I'm not the only one with this problem. Hopefully it will be solved in a patch or a cool modder will work out an solution. None the less It would be nice to have an option to turn of the new lighting. However I imagine the old lighting was removed from the code so I guessing we are up shits creek with this one. Thank god I have a desktop that I can still play on. Aside from this I love the 1.8 update. But I said that already.
I am definitely more then willing to wait. I can play the game with decent fps at the moment but no one can deny a nice little increase. To those still complaining that it hasn't been released...Go outside. Hang out with friends. Smoke some pot. Drink some beer. There is a life outside of mincecraft and it's worth checking out every once in a while.

Most kids out here are 13 or under and stay on the computer all day and have no friends, life, etc.

That is very true. When I was 13, however, I could honestly say I had friends although I would be lying if I said I never locked myself in my room and gamed for days. They just need to realize the beauty in this world, even though it may be covered with the filth of current society. I guess that's just the way todays children view things. If it's not on the internet, it's not worth their time. At least that's what I believe.
It's driving me nuts that I can't play, but I /am/ waiting patiently. Everyone else should learn to do the same. I wish I could be notified when it was released though. I want to play as soon as I can.
I honestly only get 40 FPS when not using this mod, but it's the subtle difference between 40 and 60 that drives me nuts. Even worse, I get around 10 on most servers for some unknown reason, and I really want this mod to come out. As another user said, MCP has been updated to 1.8 recently, so we can probably expect OptiFine to come out soon. I think everyone just needs to remain patient.

It's really not that hard to type "optifine" into google...It's the first page that appears.
he didnt

Search != notification.
Not much of a difference between 13 and 15.. You proved his point though.
You get 5? I get 1-2. That right there is unplayable. I've seen 139 FPS with it on a 32x pack before though, so yes I need some Optifine.
