On a more serious note, I think it may be a good time to consider whether to use optifine format mods or other format mods. Using the other formats would benefit modders and resourcepack creators, as this platform would let much more people be aware of these formats which are specialized and easier to create resourcepacks for. Using the optifine format would benefit users, as most conversions aren't 100% complete and they may experience some issues when using the other formats. It's something to further consider, and honestly I'm not sure which is better as a whole.

On a more serious note, I think it may be a good time to consider whether to use optifine format mods or other format mods.

Currently, using Optifine format would still be better because people are not aware of the alternatives, nor would they want to install a single mod for a single resource pack feature. Case in point: #210 has still very low adoption (though then again it could be because vanilla resource packs can work similarly).

Hmm? That isn't really what I was referring to, I was thinking more like #72, #77, etc

Your question was why won't FO use mods that provide new non-OF capabilities? The answer is that I still don't think FO has enough power to make them spread, and there is no incentive for me or the content creators either when there are currently barely any resource packs that use those mods.

I was talking about resource pack formats, e.g. fsb format vs mcpatcher format

You're asking about whether your converter should convert from Optifine format or to Optifine format? In that case, still Optifine format is still more "standardized" and it will likely have implementing mods for various loaders, by various devs. Converting from Optifine format, on the other hand, may be more unsustainable as that resulting format could become abandonware at some point.

Also a note: It's unknown if it works alongside with ETF

minecraft wont crash if using both, it will just load the CEM mod models instead. you can disable cem mod anyway in the modmenu configuration if you want to use jsonem

JsonEM is compatible with ETF JsonEM can run alongside CEM with no problems CEM will take priority on JsonEM tho Ex : some model is added for both, only CEM will be used Some model only present for CEM, loaded by CEM Some model only present for JsonEM loaded by CEM

I think I should close this, because of #584

RaptaG avatar Mar 25 '23 12:03 RaptaG

And #498 should be closed for the same reason I think
