Board Thread:LotR Mod Technical Support/@comment-27689279-20151109082539

This feature, as cool as it is, causes me (and I'm sure many others out there) a lot of lag when in combat. With a single blade or a few Elves, this effect is manageable, but coupled with 50 or more Elves, the lag reaches the point of freezing the entire Minecraft client. I have asked this question in the past and suggested an option to turn it off, but have gotten little response and no action so far.

So, as I have done with past observations that have seen little to no action, I have attempted to take matters into my own hands, yet again. I first tried using a resource pack method to disable enchantment glow on weapons, but it seems like most of the lag is actually coming from the mod replacing a normal Elven sword with its activated counterpart, not the enchantment glow. I then tried finding, extracting, and deleting files within the mod that were related to Elven swords glowing. But this failed too, and my client wouldn't start up without these files.

With all that said, does anyone out there have more in-depth knowledge on how to deal with .class files, and other function files that run the mod? If so, I would greatly appreciate any findings on whether disabling this effect is possible. Thanks!
