Hello! Before I begin, here are my computer specs:
Mac OS X Mountain Lion 10.8.3 (Late 2012 iMac 21in)
3.1 GHz Intel Core i7
16 GB 1600 MHz DDR3
NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M 512 MB
1TB Fusion Drive
Also, do not tell me to get a PC. My experience with many different types of Windows computers has been generally negative and I am pleased with my Mac and I graciously welcome positive and helpful suggestions/advice. Thank you in advanced.
Alright, so I've been using MCPatcher for all my mod-related needs for years now, and I decided to start using OptiFine as it is accompanied by many different features that I am interested in such as better grass, better stars, connected textures, etc. and I've found that OptiFine has been nothing but a roadblock. I've installed OptiFine using MCPatcher, MagicLauncher, and manually installing it, and the outcome has been the same in all scenarios. I open up my game and everything is as usual in the menus but if I enter a world--single or multi player--my game seems alright for about 1-2 seconds until I begin to experience inescapable and unbearable amounts of lag in which my game is running at its best 5 FPS and I'm having lag spikes every second even in the menus whilst in game. I have to force quit Minecraft every time I experience this because closing it normally is essentially impossible. This is particularly frustrating as I typically play Minecraft at about 90-120 FPS on a 128x128 texture pack with other mods installed (such as Rei's Minimap). A mod that everyone generally has positive feedback about is making my game unplayable.
Advice and any possible solutions will be GREATLY APPRECIATED!
