A texturepack that raises your fps???

So i found a texturepack, which in my opinion doesn't look that bad, better yet it raises your FPS by about 20.
The only catch is its a 4x4 texturepack xD

The only way the FPS is affected by a texture pack is if the pack is above 16x16, which will lower your FPS. Packs with a resolution "lower" than 16x16 do not affect FPS. When created, the blocks still have pixels of 16x.

Anyway, if you want a really good 8x pack, try Isabella. (I think)

Are you sure about this? If you have a shitty GPU, it may help, although you would need to modify Minecraft to support said lower resolutions: Otherwise, it would be 16x16 with pixels grouped in 2x2 blocks (or in the case of 4x4, 4x4 blocks). Although I noticed that Minecraft running on something other than its native resolution appears to lag it (I ran a 64x64 pack, and although F3 said my FPS was the same as usual, it FELT a lot choppier.)

Yeah, I saw a lot of argument, but finally, it was cleared up that lower resolution texture packs do not affect FPS.

lol, that happened to me once, I got up to 45 FPS, normally around 20. Didn't change my texture pack though. Still, I'm pretty sure that lower resolution doesn't help FPS.

Only if you patched minecraft so it utilizes a 4x4 resolution, rather than blocky 16x16.

Therefore the texture pack didn't improve your FPS. The mod did. :coolface:

No.

I'm sure there are more. I've been on the texture pack forums quite a bit. It has been proved that texture packs do not change FPS.

Also, here's a little quote from it:
Myth: Bucket fill texture packs reduce lag.

The only way bucket fill texture packs would reduce lag would be if the pack was ACTUALLY 1x1 (As in, the terrain.png itself is resized to 16x16.) Just bucket-filling the textures won't do a thing if the pack is the default res. Would CryEngine2 be able to run on an old netbook if the textures were all one color? You would probably think that's preposterous. Well, it doesn't. And guess what? Minecraft works the same way!

No. The only way a low-res texture pack improves FPS, is through a mod.

Right scope, you definitely know everything. No seriously shut the fuck up kid, gamefaqs is posted on by idiots like you.
