About this Modpack

A modpack that focuses on bringing client side changes that improve performance quality of life and visuals
I decided to create this modpack because a lot of other packs that aim to recreate the features of the optifne mod do just that recreate optifine but i wanted to make a modpack that adds some features that i enjoy like more particles or animations
this modpack features a lot more than just recreating the features of the optifne mod it also includes features that improve quality of life and visuals that a lot of other simmilar modpacks simply lack
