Hi guys,

I just have a quick question.

You may or may not know who Sildur is, but he created some epic shaders that I use:

http://www.minecraftforum.net/topic/1689438-147-152sildurs-shaders-pcmacintel/

However, I am getting some issues with some of my frames. He has different kinds of shaders:

V1 Shaders give waving plants and water. I usually get around 40-45 fps.

V2 are the Shaders that I REALLY want to use compared to V1. These shaders give lighting affects plus the waving effects. I get issues here.

Now I"m not an expert at computers, but my frames go haywire when I load up these shaders on my Minecraft. Usually, I start off with 20-25 frames to begin with. OK, not bad. However, after the first thirty seconds, my frames plummet down to 5-15 frames, fluctuating frequently. It's very annoying and I get really ticked by it. I love these shaders, so I want some good frames on 'em.

So, how can I improve some of my frames?

(Yes, I tried to talk to Sildur, but he doesn't seem to reply to the questions I asked him. So that I don't clog up the system and so that I don't annoy him, I posted here.)

Here are my specs:

13'' MacBook Air, Mid 2012
Processor: 1.8 GHz Intel Core i5
Memory: 4 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 4000 512 MB

Thanks for helping me out!

Get a better computer. An Intel HD Graphics chip is basically the worst thing that'll run Minecraft, I'm honestly surprised it works at all.

ok, but is there anything I could do in the meantime? I want good frames for these shaders.

BTW, some of the shaders were actually made for computers like these intel computers.

I have a Intel GMA Chip. This it's the worst thing that'll run Minecraft.

If it's a laptop, especially a mac, you can't do anything other than get a new computer. It will be pointless even TRYING to get good fps off of that thing.

I Dont Know

I do get roughly 80 frames without the shaders, but they will drop having V2 shaders. Based on what you guys said, Intel is not the way to go. So for my next computer, which I am afraid won't be for a while since I got this just last month, what should I be looking at?

try to do a desktop with a intel core i5 in 3550. i have the k one
use a good graphic cardi like the gtx 660 ti ou 670.i have the 660 ti but asus top
and use at least 4gb of ram. i have 16gb
