so, I have downloaded the 1.5 pre-release and I have been putting its texture engine to the test. I use a custom texture pack that was 64x in 1.4.7. All the raw PSDs for blocks and items were done at 400x, scaled-down, and put into items.png and terrain.png.
Now that 1.5 has done away with items.png and terrain.png,and HD textures are natively supported, I switched some textures over from 64x to 400x (a couple which are animated), and now when I play, the frame drops to about 5fps.
My system isn't all too powerful either. My laptop has 8GB of RAM, and Nvidia 210GM GPU with a 2.2GHz processor. My video driver is at its latest version, so is Java, and I am not using any mods.
Is there any way to run the texture pack with my system at a decent framerate, or am I asking too much of my system?
