Hey is anyone else having trouble getting connected textures to work in 1.8? I've tried fast and fancy (and even off though obviously that wouldn't do it) but my textures are still not connected. It's kinda the only reason I got optifine so...help?

Thank You for releasing 1.8.1 B6 - I am pleased that you fixed the black flickering in the clouds, as that was my only problem with the 1.8.1 Optifine. Now it is perfect with no issues in my experience. I am now using and enjoying Optifine and a donation is on route to say - thank You :-)
CTM works fine, however some features that MCPatcher supplies don't work on Optifine,however normal CTM methods should work fine.
Also sp614x could you add CTM Support for the Sugar Cane and the Glass Panes?
They only work in MCPatcher and not in Optifine yet.
Don't mind the Placeholder Texture.
Oh, hang on, you said it doesn't work for glass panes, does it work with regular glass blocks? Cuz regular glass blocks are what I'm wanting to work. Also I remember it working on metal blocks in 1.6 and it's not doing that now... Aw nuts, it's just my texture pack making it not work, aw well.
First, never, NEVER, use that font again. It will likely not get you any help. Second, you are lucky I am responding to this at all. Third, we need details. Give us crash logs(in spoilers), screenshots (in spoilers), and the exact versions of both Optifine and teamextreme that you are using. Or, don't use 1.8.1 optifine for 1.8 minecraft. It doesn't work like that. Keep the versions correlated, and it should work fine.
Can someone please help me with installing OptiFine_1.8.1_HD_U_B6. I am using Windows 8 (64 bits) with 64 bit Java. I've already installed Vanilla MC 1.8.1 and it runs fine. I clicked on the jar file, twice and I don't get the Installer dialog box. I am using the default launcher and not Magic Launcher. Any ideas?

You just need to direct Windows to open .jar files with java.exe
I only know Windows 7, and it asks you which program you want to use to open unknown file types, but you should have "default programs" or similar. Then Windows will try to run .jar files with Java whenever you double-click them.

I was having the same problem, java exception... only with version b6 though. Lol, I was beating myself up about what the heck I was doing wrong. I should have known when the icon for the *.jar didn't match the sun logo.... DUH!!! Thank you.
Running Optifine 1.8.1 HD_B5 on vanilla, it launches fine, but when I run 1.8.1 HD_B6, I get 'A Java Exception Has Occurred'

It seems that I'm not the only one, with the problem. I have attempted to open the OptiFine file, both ways. I'm running Java(TM) Platform SE binary that's used for 64 bit Java. Here's my suspicion. The Optifine jar file is 32 bit and I am using a 64 bit application to open a 32 bit file.
Is there a workaround? I really don't want to install 32 bit Java, to just run Optifine. With Forge, they wrap it in a Win installer .exe file. Is this a possibility?

I use 64 bit Java 8_25 and both installers work fine for me. (The only Forge installers I've seen were .jar files)
So just to make sure, when you selected the program to use, you selected javaw.exe in C:\Program Files\Java\[Java version]\bin ?
What Java version are you using?
The .jar file might have been corrupt, have you tried re-downloading the .jar file maybe?

I downloaded the OptiFine .jar file multiple time. Hmm, let's dig a little deeper.
Here's the file version for Java(TM) Platform SE binary - 7.0.250.17 The date is 7/5/2013 for file modification.
From what you and @grimallq are saying, it appears I've a dated version of Java.
Oh, grim asked "What happens when I clicked on the OptiFine jar file?" I get the command line box. Unfortunately, it last for a sex and the box disappears. So, I don't get any clues on what's happening.
Update: Ok. I updated to Java 8.0.2 and I associated the OptiFine .jar file with the Java executable. Same result. I've also downloaded the .jar file for OptiFine, again.
When I go to OptiFine and choose "Open With" I'm choosing Java (tm) Platform SE Binary. Hopes this help.

You also have to be sure to UNINSTALL the old java first, so it's not anywhere on your system. Not sure why, but it will still choke if more than one java is installed.

I double checked and I've only 1 version of Java running and it's the latest one. Good question, though. I've seen it happen, before.
Update: I highly doubt it's related, but... I am using the latest version of Google Chrome to download my files. Yes, it's a 64 bit browser.
I know those settings are buggy when forcibly enabled, so i guess that's the problem, but still.

I'm using teamxtreme launcher and after the launcher updated 1.8 and 1.8.1 versions of optifine wont work

Found the instruction for running Java in a commandline prompt -- java -jar filename.jar
It installed nicely and I loaded up Minecraft. It works. Thanks for the help.
