About OptiFine for Minecraft 1.2

Minecraft 1.2 is part of the 1.2.x release line. An official OptiFine build for 1.2 has not been published yet — historically OptiFine releases a few weeks to a few months after a new Minecraft snapshot or stable release, depending on how invasive the rendering changes are.

Until a 1.2 build is available, the closest playable option is the latest OptiFine for the previous 1.2.x patch. This page will be updated automatically when the 1.2 build is released.
