Vesper's Optimizations

This will be the final Vesper's Optimizations update. I have so many projects going at the moment that it has become necessary to drop some just so I can handle everything better. I decided to drop a modpack, and chose to keep the most popular (Modern Hypixel SkyBlock) and my personal favorite (Across the Abyss). The pack will remain up for a while. Thanks for the support :)

This release marks a total rebuild from the ground up of the mod pack. Recently I asked myself, "Are these mods in here because they're making the game faster, or because it promised optimization and seemed like a good idea?" So I deleted everything and started over, testing every performance mod I added to make sure it was actually providing a benefit. This led to the removal of a couple of mods that had no performance impact or, in a couple of cases, actually made performance worse. I also removed several cosmetic mods, keeping only the ones that I felt actually added something and officially support 1.21.6. This will be the base I build off moving forward, and all future performance mod updates and additions will be thoroughly tested!
