00:00:00
have you ever wondered what mod pack
00:00:01
gives you the most FPS or you just
00:00:03
recently came back to Minecraft and
00:00:05
vanilla just sucks and you want more FPS
00:00:07
well it doesn't really matter what your
00:00:08
reason is because you're going to find
00:00:09
out anyway by watching this video unlike
00:00:11
in my last optimization mod pack video I
00:00:13
will not be using default settings and I
00:00:14
will test each mod pack under the exact
00:00:16
same conditions but I will not be
00:00:18
tinkering with Mod settings though but
00:00:19
before I go into the numbers I need you
00:00:21
to understand how I actually tested
00:00:23
these first I chose the 20 mod pack some
00:00:25
of them were really popular like
00:00:27
fabulously optimized and simply
00:00:28
optimized some were the exact opposite
00:00:30
having two or three downloads and then I
00:00:32
had some mod packs that aren't really
00:00:34
made for optimization they did have
00:00:36
optimization mod so they still kind of
00:00:38
count some of them are like distant
00:00:40
Horizon plus Irish shers and sodium plus
00:00:42
and then I had Vulcan optimized in here
00:00:45
because many like many this many so
00:00:48
before any further Ado you will need to
00:00:50
understand how I actually tested all of
00:00:51
these mod packs I used capf frame X and
00:00:54
Reva tuner to record my FPS Reva tuner
00:00:57
tells me the FPS and capf frame X
00:00:59
records it and tells me the average the
00:01:00
1% lows and whatever I need now onto the
00:01:03
testing I tested each and every one of
00:01:05
these mod packs in four different
00:01:06
scenario across Two Worlds I tested each
00:01:09
mod pack a total amount of 20 times from
00:01:11
these five times per scenario I only
00:01:14
took the best result and didn't average
00:01:16
it out because the first result was
00:01:18
always the worst because it had to
00:01:20
render stuff in now onto the scenarios
00:01:22
it had two different worlds first world
00:01:24
is on the desert further down on the
00:01:26
ground not many transparent blocks
00:01:29
there's water there there are some trees
00:01:30
in the distance and it's daytime and
00:01:32
that's pretty much it the second one was
00:01:34
the exact opposite it's your up in the
00:01:36
sky night particles transparent blocks
00:01:39
clouds the exact opposite so you would
00:01:41
have wide range to see which one
00:01:43
performs best and then onto the settings
00:01:45
I always use the exact same graphic
00:01:47
settings on each and every one of these
00:01:49
I always disabled vsync and I always
00:01:51
played it in full screen never have I
00:01:53
had the show FPS settings turned on or
00:01:55
ever pressed F3 to record my FPS however
00:01:58
one setting I changed to be between the
00:02:00
scenarios and that is the render
00:02:01
distance one I tested at 30 chunks with
00:02:04
20 chunks simulation and one I tested at
00:02:07
18 chunks Runner distance with 12 trunks
00:02:09
simulation however one thing I didn't do
00:02:11
is go into the settings of each and
00:02:13
every one of these mod packs like sodium
00:02:15
lithium and whatever to change settings
00:02:17
in there because then that would destroy
00:02:18
the point of testing which mod pack is
00:02:20
the best obviously you can go in there
00:02:23
and change everything the way you want
00:02:24
it to have and the way it might actually
00:02:26
perform the actual best but not many
00:02:28
people do that many people just want
00:02:29
their regular out of the box experience
00:02:31
they install a mod pack maybe they put
00:02:33
one or two mods that they like in there
00:02:35
and that's it I changed in-game settings
00:02:37
not mod settings that's one thing you
00:02:39
need to know now onto the mod packs
00:02:41
first up is adrenaline adrenaline is
00:02:43
based on sodium plus lithium and there
00:02:45
are some other mods like immediately
00:02:47
fast and dynamic FPS that have something
00:02:49
to do with optimization adrenaline
00:02:51
doesn't really include any real Quality
00:02:53
of Life mods but since it's build around
00:02:54
fabric you can really add whatever you
00:02:56
want and make it your own and in my
00:02:57
opinion is a great start Butters move
00:02:59
well it's very similar to Adrenaline
00:03:02
many of these mod packs are very similar
00:03:03
to one each other actually here's all
00:03:05
the mod packs that are very similar in
00:03:07
mods and contain at least five of the
00:03:09
same mods that another one does there
00:03:11
are some that stand out and I'm going to
00:03:13
go through those because all the other
00:03:14
ones are sodium lithium and it's very
00:03:17
very similar first one that stands out
00:03:19
is fabulously optimized fabulously
00:03:21
optimized is lithium and sodium I know I
00:03:23
know I know I know my bad but it
00:03:25
includes all the OptiFine features and
00:03:27
in my opinion if you haven't played
00:03:28
Minecraft in a real long time like
00:03:30
talking when OptiFine was still the way
00:03:33
to go this mod pack includes all of the
00:03:35
OptiFine features including Shader
00:03:36
support which many actually have capes
00:03:39
zoom and everything else that OptiFine
00:03:41
would actually bring you and even your
00:03:42
original OptiFine Cape if you had one
00:03:45
still works here so there is really no
00:03:47
reason to use OptiFine because it's
00:03:48
absolutely horrible if you want OptiFine
00:03:50
features and you don't want to Tinker
00:03:52
around get fabulously optimized then the
00:03:54
next real interesting one is sodium plus
00:03:56
sodium plus does actually have sodium
00:03:58
like the name inquires but it's horrible
00:04:01
when it comes to FPS and that is because
00:04:03
it comes with distant Horizons which is
00:04:06
a level of detail mod which renders many
00:04:08
chunks talking like 300 chunks render
00:04:10
distance but just at the further you go
00:04:13
at a lower quality and you don't really
00:04:15
notice but I didn't disable that because
00:04:17
I said I want Tinker with mods and
00:04:19
sodium also has a mini map they also
00:04:21
have a voice chat mod so it's many mods
00:04:23
you may actually like but it's also many
00:04:26
mods you'll probably never use like if
00:04:28
your friend doesn't have that exact mod
00:04:30
for voice shat you probably will never
00:04:32
ever use that voice shat feature the
00:04:34
next mod pack that was very interesting
00:04:36
was Vulcan optimize menu free
00:04:37
recommended to me this and I actually
00:04:39
know what Vulcan is I didn't know this
00:04:41
was actually possible in Minecraft to
00:04:42
just change out the renderer engine but
00:04:44
like the name implies volan changes out
00:04:46
the original Minecraft open Geo render
00:04:49
Engine with the newer and better version
00:04:50
of it which is actually called Vulcan
00:04:52
and it does not include sodium but
00:04:54
therefore it still has lithium and
00:04:56
generally at least on a newer graphics
00:04:58
card show improvements over other open
00:05:01
GE sodium mod packs the problem that
00:05:03
actually might appear is that you need
00:05:05
newer graphics cards and I know AMD had
00:05:08
driver issues with Vulcan kind of all
00:05:11
the time you generally need a GTX 600
00:05:13
series or newer from Nvidia Ren hd7000
00:05:17
for AMD or any intel Skylake processor
00:05:19
or later if you want to use integrated
00:05:21
Graphics you also must have a 64-bit
00:05:24
system and at the very very very least 4
00:05:27
GB of RAM which I do not actually
00:05:28
recommend I would least play with eight
00:05:30
especially Minecraft Minecraft is a ram
00:05:32
heavy game don't play with four eight
00:05:34
for Vulcan at the very least I would
00:05:36
recommend and even if you have a newer
00:05:38
GPU I have a friend that actually has
00:05:39
issues with fulcon so your results May
00:05:43
Vary now on to the first test I actually
00:05:44
need to talk about some of these mod
00:05:46
packs before I go on further because as
00:05:48
you can see resim optimized a mod pack
00:05:50
that actually was downloaded by like
00:05:52
three people when I downloaded it
00:05:54
performed incredibly well no it really
00:05:56
didn't I couldn't set the chunks
00:05:59
distance up I set it always to 30 I
00:06:02
pressed apply I went out it still didn't
00:06:04
change when I went back in it was at 2
00:06:06
it's always at two so what you're seeing
00:06:09
here is two chunks render distance and
00:06:11
for the second world I actually didn't
00:06:13
even test resim optimized anymore and
00:06:16
then there's another one you might
00:06:17
instantly notice is easy optimized it
00:06:19
has zero that's because the game didn't
00:06:21
start I could have probably fixed it by
00:06:23
updating or removing a mod but then it
00:06:25
wouldn't really be their mod pack it
00:06:27
would be my mod pack and it's really a
00:06:29
because it has many many
00:06:31
downloads like 40,000 downloads and it
00:06:33
doesn't even start on my PC so if you're
00:06:36
encountering issues like that then no
00:06:38
you are not the only one I do as well
00:06:40
one thing that surprised me a lot is
00:06:42
sodium extra and sodium Plus on the
00:06:44
exact opposites these are made by these
00:06:47
same people if I'm not mistaken don't
00:06:48
call me editor please now sodium plus
00:06:52
just has so much stuff put onto it that
00:06:55
it sucks incredibly much like it's crazy
00:06:59
bad and that is because it has so many
00:07:01
mods including the one I listed before
00:07:02
it has four pages in mod R of mods and
00:07:05
it's just really not needed for an
00:07:07
optimization mod pack but this is not
00:07:09
really marketed as an optimization mod
00:07:12
pack it's more like an all-in-one mod
00:07:13
pack you download this and then you have
00:07:14
the best Minecraft experience you just
00:07:16
do some settings to fit it to your PC
00:07:18
and then there you go that's it you
00:07:19
don't ever need to do something else
00:07:21
don't ever need a new mod don't ever
00:07:22
need anything new just to update the M
00:07:24
pack whenever a new game version comes
00:07:26
out it's crazy now another one that has
00:07:28
surprised me a lot throughout the whole
00:07:30
testing not just this one is OMC fabric
00:07:33
OMC fabric was again one of these mod
00:07:36
packs that had like five downloads when
00:07:37
I got it and it's crazy good you will
00:07:40
see it at the top during almost all of
00:07:42
these testings and then they're simply
00:07:44
optimized which I kind of expected at
00:07:46
the top it has like only 15 mods or
00:07:48
whatever like it's crazy how little
00:07:51
stuff it has and how good it is like the
00:07:53
less stuff the better you know you need
00:07:54
the basics and nothing more because
00:07:56
that's what kind of really gets you the
00:07:57
most FPS another one that surprisingly
00:08:00
folen optimized this is the best result
00:08:02
I've gotten with it remember all of
00:08:03
these results you are seeing here are
00:08:05
the best results out of five so like
00:08:07
fcon optimize being at the bottom 40% of
00:08:10
this chart is kind of embarrassing for
00:08:12
how many people were standing it but
00:08:14
then again in the video that I actually
00:08:16
did that I stand fabulously optimized
00:08:18
and that is also below it other than
00:08:20
that nothing really special to remark I
00:08:22
was surprised how far down adrenaline
00:08:24
was because I thought adrenaline was
00:08:26
like adrenaline is very very similar to
00:08:28
Simply optimized but it was a big
00:08:30
difference apparently simply optimizers
00:08:32
has I guess better mod settings in this
00:08:33
scenario at the very least now to the
00:08:35
next one now this is still the exact
00:08:37
same world but on 18 chunks and now you
00:08:40
see Vulcan optimized at the very top and
00:08:42
then you see adrenaline simply optimized
00:08:44
like d1's that I actually expected to
00:08:47
see at the top and I was surprised about
00:08:48
Vulcan optimized because it just changes
00:08:51
the render engine and it's just so much
00:08:53
better then again you have sodium Plus
00:08:55
at the very bottom there is butter
00:08:57
smooth poja which is also very far down
00:09:00
and butter smooth poja was again one of
00:09:02
those ones with very little downloads
00:09:04
but then again OMC fabric is like top
00:09:06
six right now if you do not include rir
00:09:09
apparently unpopular mods can be very
00:09:11
good as well another one that was kind
00:09:14
of surprising is distant Horizons plus
00:09:15
Irish shaders it has gotten me 240 FPS
00:09:19
in the 1% lows and it's still rendered
00:09:23
like 200 plus chunks and that's crazy
00:09:25
sodium plusy the same it also had dist
00:09:28
Horizons and also it had Irish haers but
00:09:31
just not that much more it only
00:09:34
had this Horizons and Irish haers and
00:09:36
sodium and some other stuff it gotten a
00:09:38
much better result now if you need
00:09:40
distant Horizons and Shader support I
00:09:42
would personally just install adrenaline
00:09:44
or simply optimize and then put distant
00:09:46
Horizon and IR Traders on that if you
00:09:49
don't know what you're doing this is not
00:09:51
a bad option if you just want your game
00:09:53
to look good like you have a
00:09:55
4090 or a 5090 that's going to come out
00:09:58
very soon if you have a 50/90 you just
00:10:01
throw this mod pack in there put a
00:10:03
Shader on infinite chunks with shaders
00:10:05
that's going to be the best experience
00:10:07
you can possibly get if you want just it
00:10:09
to look good other than that there's
00:10:10
nothing really that I haven't expected
00:10:12
there is fabulously optimized like right
00:10:14
in the middle and that kind of surprised
00:10:16
me because I remembered fabulously
00:10:17
optimized being much better and then
00:10:19
another one that was also quite
00:10:21
surprising is the top four one if you do
00:10:23
not include resir because that didn't
00:10:25
count it's two chunks is
00:10:26
performium performium is a m pack made
00:10:28
by Cas Sur up and that mod pack actually
00:10:31
has many mods like it had Shader support
00:10:33
and it's not like adrenaline and simply
00:10:35
optimized that are super cut down with
00:10:37
just optimization mods no performing
00:10:40
actually had some quite nice features
00:10:42
and it performed very good like it's
00:10:44
amazing actually I kind of feel bad now
00:10:46
because in the first video I gave the
00:10:48
crown to fabulously optimized and simply
00:10:51
optimized and I've kind of like made
00:10:53
performium look bad because the YouTuber
00:10:56
that actually made mod pack tested it
00:10:58
with F3 turn off and he used like some
00:11:00
third party FPS shower and obviously you
00:11:02
will always see more FPS if you use a
00:11:04
third party FPS shower it's kind of a
00:11:06
shame because he didn't have to do that
00:11:08
like it actually performs good like it's
00:11:10
crazy good now onto the second world
00:11:12
again 30 chunks now and one thing you
00:11:15
instantly see is OMC fabric at the very
00:11:19
top which is crazy and then again you
00:11:21
see adrenaline simply optimized
00:11:23
especially simply optimized so far down
00:11:26
the list which is crazy they just don't
00:11:29
do good on high chunks you didn't see
00:11:32
them at the top on the other world at 30
00:11:34
chunks you do not see them at the top on
00:11:36
this world at 30 chunks another one you
00:11:38
again see at the top though with 30
00:11:40
chunks is OMC fabric like what five
00:11:44
downloads guys it was second best in
00:11:47
average FPS and the best in 1% lows
00:11:50
which are actually the stuff that
00:11:51
matters because that indicates how
00:11:52
smooth the games actually few then you
00:11:54
have simplify and optimized FPS and then
00:11:56
Vulcan again Vulcan one thing I've
00:11:58
noticed it doesn't really perform that
00:12:00
best again on 30 chunks and then the mod
00:12:02
packs you actually would expect them to
00:12:04
perform the best at the highest chunks
00:12:06
like adrenally and simply optimized and
00:12:08
Vulcan they don't do the best at the
00:12:10
highest chunks they do better at lower
00:12:11
chunks which is kind of interesting and
00:12:14
I think that could be its very own video
00:12:16
actually another one fabulously
00:12:18
optimized is right in the middle butter
00:12:20
smooth poab and sodium Plus at the very
00:12:22
bottom and then again distant Horizons
00:12:24
being like eight times better than
00:12:27
sodium plus and still having nice Fe
00:12:29
fees is crazy to me another one that I
00:12:31
actually want to give a little award
00:12:34
here is remarkably optimized it has
00:12:36
never really performed the best but it
00:12:38
was always good enough in performance
00:12:40
like no issues and it was the one that
00:12:43
was the most consistent you see how
00:12:45
close the average FPS bar is to the 1%
00:12:48
low bar that's crazy it performs really
00:12:50
really consistent and not only that in
00:12:52
my opinion by default you just load into
00:12:55
the game with those settings that I made
00:12:56
on every single one of these it looks
00:12:59
best like by far the clouds are so nice
00:13:02
the animations are so cool it's very
00:13:04
good I really really Lov remarkably
00:13:07
optimized if you just want it to look
00:13:08
good and you don't know what you're
00:13:09
doing you just want a mod pack
00:13:11
remarkably optimized is again one option
00:13:13
but we'll talk about that a little more
00:13:15
in the conclusion at the end of the
00:13:16
video and now the second world at 18
00:13:19
chunks and you see instantly Vulcan
00:13:22
optimized absolutely gapping by almost
00:13:27
200 FPS in the one perc lows which is
00:13:30
crazy having the highest high percent
00:13:32
lows and the highest average FPS and the
00:13:35
average FPS was only 200 FPS like error
00:13:38
to the 1% low which is what it's crazy
00:13:43
absolutely crazy and then again you see
00:13:45
adrenaline Thunder simply optimized and
00:13:47
wing all of these four are very very cut
00:13:50
down optimization mod packs and it shows
00:13:52
they performance so close to each other
00:13:55
are actually like in the margin of error
00:13:57
less than 1% difference in the 1% lows
00:14:00
between them so each one of those are
00:14:02
very great and then again you see sodium
00:14:04
Plus at the bottom butter smooth poj and
00:14:06
distant Horizons at the very bottom
00:14:07
sodium extra didn't really do good
00:14:10
anymore did very well in that first test
00:14:12
which surprised me and then it was kind
00:14:14
of mediocre and another one again OMC
00:14:17
fabric it does incredibly well in high
00:14:19
chunks but incredibly bad it's at the
00:14:21
bottom 40% when it comes to lower chunks
00:14:25
if you play on high chunks there are
00:14:26
better mod packs than if you play on
00:14:28
Lower chunks crazy now onto the
00:14:31
conclusion if your PC can handle Vulcan
00:14:33
and the best way to find out by the way
00:14:34
is to just download it and try it out if
00:14:36
it doesn't work but if it can Vulcan
00:14:38
optimize I think is by far like one of
00:14:41
the most stable experiences and it
00:14:43
actually performs really really well on
00:14:45
like more realistic chunks on like 18 to
00:14:47
22 chunks than 30 not only that remember
00:14:50
if you know what you're doing you can
00:14:52
always just add mods and make it your
00:14:53
own experience but if your PC cannot
00:14:56
handle that there are still a few stuff
00:14:58
to take into consideration it's not just
00:15:00
in so adrenaline or simply optimized no
00:15:02
if you just want the most amount of FPS
00:15:04
out of your mod pack and nothing else
00:15:05
you play on a potato you I don't know
00:15:07
whatever reason you have you have a
00:15:08
1,000 HZ monitor you want to use every
00:15:11
single one of those Herz simply
00:15:12
optimized or adrenaline is the way to go
00:15:14
if you cannot use Vulcan but then again
00:15:16
if you want to better like vanilla
00:15:18
experience when you play with your
00:15:19
friends on a server or whatever or you
00:15:21
just have your own world in that case I
00:15:23
would still recommend fabulously
00:15:25
optimized but performium has kind of
00:15:28
surpr Ur me a lot I actually prefer
00:15:30
performium over fabulously optimized
00:15:32
remarkably optimized is again great and
00:15:34
it performed a bit worse than performium
00:15:37
but it actually looked the best
00:15:39
performium is like a great in between
00:15:41
like most FPS and most usability I like
00:15:44
fabulously optimized because you still
00:15:46
have like all the OptiFine features but
00:15:48
so do you with performium so then again
00:15:51
it really depends what you want either
00:15:52
performium if you just want like more
00:15:55
FPS and you want to make it look your
00:15:57
own way shaders text packs and whatever
00:16:00
so you know what you're doing then
00:16:01
perform you if you just want your game
00:16:03
to work and look good at the same time
00:16:05
without needing to tweak too much then
00:16:08
get remarkably optimized now everything
00:16:10
even more concluded if you can handle
00:16:11
Vulcan get Vulcan if not and you want
00:16:13
the most amount of FPS get adrenaline or
00:16:15
simply optimize if you want a better
00:16:17
just general experience with the game
00:16:19
get performing or remarkably optimized
00:16:21
that is pretty much it I'm wise and I
00:16:22
will see you next time bye-bye
