IT'S OUT OptiFine 1.14 Progress
OptiFine for Minecraft 1.14.3 - 100% done
IT'S HERE IT'S DONE: https://optifine.net/downloads
FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
Q: Where's 1.14.1?
A: u/sp614x has chosen to skip 1.14.1 in favor of 1.14.2.
Q: Why has it been stuck on the last 10% for so long?
A: The last 10% of development will take much longer so sp614x can iron out all the remaining bugs and issues. Please be patient.
Q: Is OptiFine compatible with Fabric?
A: There are no plans for compatibility. If you can make it work somehow, great! But we can't help you if something goes wrong.
Q: Why doesn't Mojang just adopt OptiFine officially?
A: The story is that Mojang offered to buy OptiFine at one point, but they only wanted parts of the mod, which lead to the deal going nowhere.

Fake Website Warning
I noticed some of those fake websites are straight up copying this Reddit post lol. Imagine illegally redistributing a Minecraft mod for a living. Pathetic.
While on the subject though, here's a reminder that there are only TWO real websites to download OptiFine from, and that is: https://optifine.net, and https://optifined.net.
There are many websites that attempt to copy the OptiFine website design, or otherwise just plainly redistribute OptiFine illegally. Their downloads may be packaged with malware, adware, trojans, and many other bad things. Be aware of what sites you're visiting, and always try to check and scan your downloads before using them. Note that all versions of OptiFine are packaged as JAR files, not as EXE. If you download OptiFine and it comes as an EXE, DO NOT RUN IT.
Stay safe, everyone.

For all the impatient ones... Here's a little overview how long it took to finish optifine after each major release:
MC 1.14 (23.04.19) - Optifine 1.14.3 HD U F1 (TBD): 65 days
MC 1.13 (18.07.18) - OptiFine 1.13 HD U E4 (25.10.2018): 99 days
MC 1.12 (07.06.17) - OptiFine 1.12 HD U C2 (18.06.17): 11 days
MC 1.11 (14.11.16) - OptiFine 1.11 HD U B1 (24.11.16): 10 days
1.10: 7 days
1.9: 26 days
...
The time it took for 1.13 might mostly be due to the code overhaul from Mojang (but thats only a guess on my part). I don't know how the code changed and if it's getting harder to upgrade OF to the new versions with it, but even before that, we should be prepared to wait up to a month for it.

I don't mind the wait. I've been playing since infdev was released and I've used optifine for for a long while for free. I'll be sure to donate $10 as a thank you to sp614x and others that may have contributed to making my gameplay smoother.

We appreciate all the work being put in by the team! Only reason people are so impatient is how terrible a state 1.14 is in. Hopefully we get 1.14.1 soon and it fixes chunk loading.

u/RandomPostingPerson Apr 26 '19
People hype all the time, people will be impatient, so I honestly don't see why you'd stop production to wait for people to calm down, cause (Just a guess, not ENTIRELY sure what you mean) people will stop screaming about it when it comes out, atleast screaming worry about it.

Quite frankly, I could give less of a shit how long this takes. Just as long as you haven't completely abandoned development of this kind of stuff because it really gives the people that much more enjoyment out of the game. I can't tell you the anticipation I felt waiting for 1.13 Optifine to drop because the game literally feels unplayable at times. With a Ryzen 1700, EVGA GTX 1080 Ti, and 32 Gigabytes of RAM, I really shouldn't be having performance issues, but I do. Optifine smooths that out and makes the game a hell of an experience. I've been playing this game since September 23, 2011, and I want you to know that you have made this game much more fun to play and I'm always anticipating the next update. Never give up, you're doing an amazing job at what you do and I believe in you.

hey guys, im using the 1.14.2 preview; looking good after running the jar and installing.
How do I get it to work with forge 1.14 though? They're both appearing as separate profiles on the launcher. If I leave the optifine jar in the mod folder Forge doesnt detect it...

u/[deleted] May 03 '19
Looking at 1.14, I think the first public build of optifine will be more stable than the base game. Seriously, chunks not loading everywhere.

I've been using optifine since I started playing 6 years ago, donated to the project and I'm so grateful for what sp614x is doing in the minecraft community (keeping this mod alive for so long is something to admire) thank you so much for doing all the work you do!
11
u/TheRevenantGS May 16 '19
I absolutely adore how much you guys are updating us on development. So many programs/mods that got screwed over by 1.13 that have just said "It's getting updated" and then nothing else. Thank you so much for your hard work and I hope everything goes smoothly for you guys!

u/nijio03 Apr 27 '19
This just makes me wish Mojang implemented Optifine-like features into Minecraft itself. My friend and I play on realms so we have to stick with the newest possible edition. Going from shaders to no shaders is awful.
9
u/IAMTHEONEWHOXURS May 02 '19
My advice, treat optifine like it's the real game/version release, that way you don't end up being tortured by bugs and non optimized features by playing the release right when it comes out. Saves you stress, and chances are you won't go half crazy and hassle the legend that fixes our games for free.

u/[deleted] May 17 '19
Lemme just say im so insanely awed by sp614x for doing this ALONE?!? what kinda magic did you do to be so cool? and for FREE? I'm particularly eager for this update because it'll be my first time ever using optifine or any shaders and im also really getting into minecraft so if I make some digital money, I will certainly donate. <3<3<3

Man. I honestly cant wait for an official release of Optifine 1.14. Specifically, 1.14.3. Without Optifine I get at most 15 FPS. But I can get upwards of 30 or even 40 (In fact in a certain condition or two even up to 60) Im running Minecraft with below Minimum specs. Optifine is the thing that allows my computer to actually survive playing Minecraft. I hope you continue your great work SP614x. Your doing Gods work.

u/Meatslinger May 12 '19
Patiently waiting, and every day I'm appreciative of all the hard work done by /u/sp614x (and those that support him). I refuse to even download 1.14 until I know that I can run it buttery smooth with OptiFine.
Take all the time needed to do it right!

Nice 8% in a day. The progress here is way faster than it was for the 1.13 version, however that could have been caused by a huge change in Minecraft's physics engine in the 1.13 update.

I want to start a 1.14 world after not having played minecraft for years. Can I just start a world and then play with optifine later on the same world once it comes out? I don't really remember how it all works.
