About this Modpack
DefCore Optimization Modpack
DefCore Optimization Modpack - this is a optimization fabric modpack based on sodium. It adds optimization of different areas of the game. Render optimization, RAM optimization, fix of some errors, changing the light rendering, etc.
The modpack is based on sodium, and about a quarter of mods depend on it or are recommended for sharing. Why not optifine? Because the optifine is outdated and sodium copes with optimization much better (when using additional mods)
Optifine features
This modpack allows you to use most of the optifine features, such as shaders, approximation, custom 3d renaming models.
