OldGL - Bringing Old Graphics Cards Back to Life
IMPORTANT: This is NOT a performance optimization mod! Its sole purpose is to make the game launchable!
Since Minecraft version 1.17, owners of HD 3000 graphics cards and other devices supporting OpenGL 3.0 and 3.1 faced a problem: the game would only launch through software rendering. I created a special solution that bypasses this limitation.
The mod is compatible with most other modifications, however if they use OpenGL 3.2+ functions (for example, Sodium), the game will inevitably crash.
