Texture Pre-Loader for Minecraft 1.2.5

Finds textures being loaded at runtime and instead loads them at startup on the loading screen the next time you start Minecraft. Good for Hi-res texture packs so no babies are thrown into the gears when you open an inventory and some craplord forgot to pre-load their GUI textures.

Effects are not immediate. Open interfaces and stuff to allow the pre-loader to find the textures.
Check config file to configure log output.

Features

  • Longer initial load time for smoother gameplay
  • Fixes initial lag of opening new interfaces or scrolling through the item list

Downloads

I expect you to know how to install mods. Just drag the zip file into your mods folder.
This mod requires Minecraft Forge!

Versions before 1.2 weren't that special. You don't want them. 1.0 loaded textures from an over 400 line long hard-coded list.
