What it does

Version 5 and later of the mod are explicitly incompatible with VanillaFix and TexFix, and it pairs with VintageFix. Version 2.3 requires MixinBooter to be installed.

Key features

    The mod targets memory consumption, aiming to reduce the RAM the game needs during play.

  2. General code optimization

    Optimizations are applied across the game code rather than to a single system.
