Noticeable FPS drop with Weather 2 installed

I usually get 60+fps with my tech mod setup, however as soon as I install this mod, it severely drops to about 20-30, even without storms nearby. I have a decently powerful computer (core i5 4200m 2.5Ghz cpu, nVidia 750m graphics card, and a recently-upgraded 16GB of RAM. If you have any solution to this, that would be great.

It's been really annoying, as I much prefer 60 fps when playing, and normally get this when using Weather 2. No idea why it'd decrease like this with the latest version, and on the lowest settings, no less.

Same here, attempted using the mod without optifine and tested with better fps then nothing and still yielded same results, right now I've had to remove it, and I also had the same thing with Mo creatures where it halved my FPS, wonder when the owner shall reply, from what I saw it's usually when he releases betas.

Try to change the storms/cloud/particle effects in EZ GUI to low or none.

It also happened with the absolute lowest settings.

M actually means mobile, U means ultra low power. The only options for the Alienware 14 are both MQ. Would those work? Golden rule in Minecraft: Never dig straight down.

Just look over and have you guys ever dedicate more ram then default amount of ram. This might be the issue as you do need to up the dedicated ram for Minecraft. I set mine to about 8 to 10 in the twitch app with more then 100 mods installed and have my rendering set to 12 or 18 (just guess the amount because I have not touch that for a while)

darthvader45 · Answer 8 · 2018-05-18T17:14:55.000Z

I have 8GB dedicated, and it has little impact on the fps. I might decide to upgrade my CPU, though I have limited options with the Alienware 14. I might eventually purchase a more powerful modern laptop for this mod specifically, alongside any powerful video editing software like Premiere. Golden rule in Minecraft: Never dig straight down.

I think the core i5-4200M is the reason why causing the drop. The intel core which has the word 'M' means ultra low power, which is not suitable for this mod. The solution that I could think of is buying an non-ultra low power CPU such as:" U, H, HQ, etc" or upgrade your hardware.

Yeah I've noticed, I'm also using a pentium 3558u on a computer designed for win10. Plus I can't even change the RAM.

darthvader45 · Answer 11 · 2018-05-25T15:24:13.000Z

You can't remove the ram sticks, or you can't change Minecraft's allocated RAM? The latter can be changed via MultiMC, the former I don't believe is possible, because I highly doubt any sane computer company would solder the RAM to the motherboard of a laptop.

Josh74000 · Answer 12 · 2018-05-25T15:31:16.000Z

Also I think the old tornado mod should get updated to 1.7.2/1.7.10

Josh74000 · Answer 13 · 2018-05-28T12:16:56.000Z

I figured out how to get the 3D radar working on 2.2 which is cool, plus I like sometimes get little to no lag, just use 1.7.10 or 1.6.4 since 1.12.2 is laggy on some pcs.
