    Another "help needed with FPS" post

    Oops, I mean Advanced OpenGL. Not OpenGL itself. If it didn't use OpenGL it wouldn't run on Linux :p As for the visual glitches, try a clean instance. There may be remnants of FPS++. You could try enabling v-sync in the video options but if you can't hold 60FPS constantly it hurts performance...

    Another "help needed with FPS" post

    Yeah, OpenGL doesn't provide much of a performance boost without a very fast Intel processor and on AMD graphics cards it causes glitches, hence why it was removed from vanilla recently. Edit: Advanced OpenGL, not OpenGL. My derp.

    Invisible MPS?

    Well a Manyullyn + Paper cleaver is 14 base damage. That gives 5 modifiers to start, and an additional 3 unlockable. Using 6 of 8 modifiers on quartz gets you to 40 damage. Using all 8 gets you to 49 damage. One could say it packs quite a wallop. Takes down the wither in 7 hits. 3 hits if you...

    Another "help needed with FPS" post

    Alright, next check both the CPU and Graphics tab. Under CPU, make sure the core speed as at full speed. For some reason your summary screenshot doesn't show that. Under Graphics, find the Current Performance Level. It should also list the speed for each performance level. On a R9 2xx card, the...

    Invisible MPS?

    The shock on my friends face the first time he attacked me with a 40 damage cleaver and it didn't do anything because of my invisible armor was priceless. Cosmetic reasons be damned.

    Another "help needed with FPS" post

    I was using a worse rig than yours up until recently and getting a minimum of 45FPS so something is wrong. Try these JVM arguments: -Xms1G -Xmx3G -XX:PermSize=256M -XX:-DisableExplicitGC Get rid of FPS++, you shouldn't need it. and its probably not helping. Setting the Xms lower helps the...

    Anyone else watching the MC "Snapshots"?

    Yeah, but a laptop can't be directly compared to a desktop and Monster can't be compared to vanilla. My analogy was probably not the best, a computer with the parts I mentioned costs $1500, not $900. Laptops inherently also cost significantly more due to the compromises needed to get reasonable...

    Anyone else watching the MC "Snapshots"?

    I sure hope not. I would rather mod authors follow the actions of Mojang and take a version to work on performance. Imagine for a second that playing Monster had roughly the same FPS as vanilla. That is because the Mojang employee that posted his FPS at the 32 chunk render distance is running...

    Anyone else watching the MC "Snapshots"?

    Snapshot 14w30b with Far render and maximum FPS = 120FPS minimum, spiking up to 400 minimum when looking straight down from Y64. 1.6.4 with the same settings = 60FPS minimum, spiking up to 160 when looking straight up from Y64. Straight down has no effect. Very impressive gains considering I...

    Anyone else watching the MC "Snapshots"?

    Well its not too terrible of a situation, it is a Pentium Anniversary Edition is it uses a lot less power and I could always overclock it. So far I have found that games massively overstate their minimum requirements though, most things are running at 60FPS @ 1080P even with my modest 270X video...

    Anyone else watching the MC "Snapshots"?

    Yeah, and I am punching myself in the face because I just moved from a quad core AMD chip to a dual core Intel chip. In the snapshots they have the same damn performance now, before the Intel chip was doubling the performance.

    32x Faithful 32x32 Pack

    Honestly you can use whatever you are comfortable with. Like Reika I use Paint.NET and had experience but its not hard at all to start working if you have any experience with Photoshop or Gimp. For the basic work you will need to know how to resize, manipulate selections, select colors, and how...

    32x Faithful 32x32 Pack

    Not going to point fingers, because I probably made some of it, but I scanned my Faithful working folder and found almost a dozen uncompressed 1MB files. Sounds like nothing right? Wrong, I compressed those down like the rest of the pack. Just shaved off 1/7th of the total download size.

    32x Faithful 32x32 Pack

    Just got back, but won't be starting work on the pack again until tomorrow. Before I fall asleep I compared the Defscape font to what is currently in Faithful32 and I have decided it won't be included for the following reasons: Thanks for your patience everyone, I know there is still a lot of...

    32x Faithful 32x32 Pack

    I still have plans to get that done and offer it as an optional download, but it will have to wait until Monday when I get back from vacation. As for the defscape font, I will also compare that when I get back.

    PTweaks plugin?

    Totally useless, if you need a server performance boost, try running Cauldron. It has all the performance boosts of Spigot and you can run Forge mods on it.

    Problem Fresh Monster server: TPS issues

    There are only 2 hosts I even consider anymore after comparing them to everyone else I have tried hosting with. A dedicated server from OVH or a VPS from Linode absolutely kick ass.

    32x Faithful 32x32 Pack

    No, I believe Vattic made the font himself. I wouldn't be suprised if some screenshots from @Reika looked a bit off, I know from his videos he uses a custom texture pack he compiled himself.

    Missing Geometry

    :P This is what I am talking about. You obviously have a different meaning of first page. They are neither here: http://www.oracle.com/index.html Nor are they here: http://www.oracle.com/technetwork/java/javase/downloads/index.html

    Missing Geometry

    Can you be more specific? Oracle has documentation on every flag in existence, that doesn't mean they should be used.
