Hello. I wanted to use BDcraft for my private modpack (over 50 mods), and downloaded the required patches for the mods. (In 128x)
However, none of my worlds load correctly.

The picture speaks for itself: Open GL error: Out of memory.

I have tried increasing the RAM all the way up to 10 GB with no effect.

Any fix?

Your graphics card memory is running out.

Firstly make sure Minecraft is using your dedicated graphics card and not an integrated one.

If that's not the issue you'll need to use a lower resolution textures.

How can I be sure? There's no option in the video settings?

Press F3 and it'll say on the right side, if I recall correctly.

It is indeed using the GPU, but I have 8 gigs of VRAM on GTX 1070. Could that really be the issue?

It could be a driver error, an issue with OptiFine or a shader as well.

Trying a lower resolution is just a useful first step for most people to make sure.
