Understand Why OptiFine and Continuity Aren't Supported
Compatibility Changes
Deep Origins Overlays dropped support for OptiFine and Continuity optimization mods. This is because the resource pack relies on Fusion's block transition system, which handles overlays differently than these older tools.
What This Means for Your Setup
If you're using OptiFine or Continuity, the smooth block blending effects from Deep Origins Overlays may not display correctly or may conflict with those mods' own texture features. The overlays require Fusion's specific rendering approach to function as intended.
Recommended Alternative
Use Sodium instead for performance optimization. Deep Origins Overlays is fully compatible with Sodium and even gains additional customization options when both are installed together. Sodium provides modern performance improvements without conflicting with the resource pack's overlay system. If you were relying on OptiFine or Continuity for other features, check whether Sodium plus other specialized mods can replace their functionality in your setup.
