Pack setup

How should I set up Better Than Optifine for players and a server?

Use Better Than Optifine 2.2.0 as the pack version. Install the pack as its own launcher instance. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file, so check the release notes before setting up a dedicated server. Do not upload the ordinary client folder blindly.

Client instance Install Better Than Optifine 2.2.0
Dedicated server setup Match Better Than Optifine 2.2.0
Pack loader Fabric 0.16.14

A pack is a matched client and server setup, not one mod with an install-side label. Keep its release, loader, manifest and overrides together.

Referenced mods 46
Client only 34
Server only 0
Not labelled 12

These numbers come from the pack file you chose. “Not labelled” means we don’t know which side it belongs on—not that it is safe everywhere. The file count is not a RAM estimate.

What are the server requirements for Better Than Optifine?

Better Than Optifine 2.2.0. Change the pack release and its contents or setup may change too.

46 mods in this pack file

The selected pack release is Better Than Optifine 2.2.0. That file is for Minecraft 1.21.7 with Fabric 0.16.14. It contains 46 mod projects. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file. Check their notes before using one, and do not upload an ordinary client folder or rebuild the pack mod by mod. A file count cannot tell us the right RAM, CPU or storage; size the server for the players and world you actually run.

About this project

What kind of pack is Better Than Optifine?

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
