<div>A while back I decided to try and figure out how other raytracing shaders worked for Minecraft, for example SEUS PTGI and various others. An important first step for developing a raytracing shader is to be able to trace rays, and for that you need access to the scene!</div><div></div><div></div><div>I would ideally like to be able to play through versions 1.0 through 1.1 (preferably 1.1) with a shaders mod, but every time I search for Minecraft PC shader mods for v1.1, I can only find pocket edition ones. Can anyone give me a hand with this question?</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>download shader pack for minecraft 1.20.1</div><div></div><div>Download Zip: https://t.co/D4nqE0UieQ </div><div></div><div></div><div>I've been playing modded minecraft since 1.6.2 or so, and I only started noticing shaders appearing recently, in 1.12.2. Before the last few months, people who wanted "better looking" minecraft just used 32x32 texture packs.</div><div></div><div></div><div>shaders have existed since before 1.7.10, but I dunno how much before (at any rate, you're limited to like 1.5 or so because that's when modding support was initially added to Minecraft...which probably means shaders came a little later after modders figured out how to handle them).</div><div></div><div></div><div>Mods have existed for nearly as long as the game has; there is a community around mods for Beta 1.7.3 and I've seen mods for Alpha versions (Mod Coder Pack has been around since at least Alpha 1.1.2_01; this is the platform that all mods depend on and it is used to decompile and deobfuscate the game). Forge has also been around since release 1.1 according to their website, and other mod loaders were also around earlier (mod loaders are not necessary but help enable multiple mods to work together and make them easier to install; most older mods would be of the type that you manually add to the jar; these mods also have to be installed differently from the old instructions or they will not work).</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Indeed, with minimal searching I found a thread for a shaders mod for 1.0.0 (the version mentioned is indeed the Minecraft version, not the version of the mod istelf):</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div> -and-modding-java-edition/minecraft-mods/1279179-1-0-0-glsl-acid-shader-mod</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>The only issue is that the downloads are no longer available, as is so often the case for such old threads which have been abandoned for years (many old threads were also removed recently), but this shows that they exist for such old versions. In fact, I even found a Reddit post mentioning a shader mod for Beta 1.7.3 - so they appear to be nearly as old as modding in general.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Also, they may not be compatible with Optifine, which did not integrate shader support until 1.7.x I believe (the last version for 1.6.4 does not have shader support. Older versions of Optifine can be found here; some of the older links no longer work though).</div><div></div><div></div><div>Currently I'm having an issue with something in the shaders though. I've been following this tutorial and I've finished it and created my first shader. However I did not like the look of the shader itself so I wanted to implement SSAO to give some depth to the scene. However, I'm encountering a problem where it just doesn't work. It just darkens the entire scene without darkening edges as it's supposed to.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Thank you for your reply.I asked the author of iterationT3.0.0,he said it's amd driver's problem,the only way to solve shader crash is to install driver before 22.7.1 (amd improve OPENGL performance in 22.7.1,it increase minecraft fps but it's not incompatible with shaders like itrationT3.0.0amd still didn't fix it in 22.11.2).However,after I install 22.5.1 , some other bugs arised including but not limited to black screen ,game crash...(I am sure it's driver bugs)</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>But what are Sildur's shaders? </div><div></div><div> Sildur's Shaders is an extension of the GLSL shader mod for Minecraft, now part of Optifine.</div><div></div><div> Vibrant shaders completly revamps the lighting system of minecraft and adds advanced effects like volumetric lighting, bloom, ambient occlusion and reflections. While still maintaining high performance. </div><div></div><div> Enhanced default does what the name indicates, instead of completly revamping the style of the game it maintains the vanilla look and adds shadows, reflections and even godrays. It's very lightweight and highly customizable, so even the worst potato is able to run it. </div><div></div><div> Fabulous shaders is a shaderpack/resourcepack that uses mojangs inbuild shaders function and require the fabulous setting from 1.16+ to work.</div><div></div><div> My shaderpacks are designed to work on all graphics cards and computers, including Macs, while still delivering a great graphical experience.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Shaders are a wonderful way to enhance the overall Minecraft experience and make the game look absolutely incredible. However, as Minecraft Bedrock & Education are built on RenderDragon, shaders are currently not supported.</div><div></div><div></div><div>BSL Shaders may be a shader pack for Minecraft: Java Edition with highcustomization and headway. This shader incorporates adjustable ongoingshadows, volumetric light, encompassing impediment, sprout, cloud andwater, and underlying enemy of associating.</div><div></div><div></div><div>None of the resource packs, shader mods or tools you see on this websiteare hosted on our servers. We use download links (including directdownload links) provided by official authors. Therefore, they arecompletely safe and secure.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Before you start to browse, here are the general prerequisites for installing Minecraft shaders that you'll need to know: First off, these currently only work with the Java Edition of Minecraft. Since nowadays all players have both versions of the game, that shouldn't be much of an issue. If you're shackled to Bedrock Edition, you'll want to look into Minecraft RTX for your shot at pretty shading.</div><div></div><div></div><div>All of these shader packs also require that you first install a graphics mod called Optifine (or, in a couple cases, one called Iris). If this is all old news to you, carry on. If you need a quick explainer on installing Optifine and individual shader packs, head down to the bottom of the page.</div><div></div><div></div><div>As another quick aside, most of these shader packs offer tons of customization options (the speed that water animates, the amount of ambient fog, or the exact RGB values of lighting for each time of day). If you know what you're about, you can do a lot with any of these shaders, so I'll be focusing on how they look and feel to those who just want to install and play right away.</div><div></div><div></div><div>If you want your Minecraft world to look gorgeous right this second, don't even keep scrolling. Sildur's shaders look amazing right out of the box with bright colors, soft shadows, god rays, and everything else you'd want, whether it's your first time installing shaders for Minecraft or you're coming back to see what's hot.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Sildur does recommend using Iris (explained below), but as of 2023 the Vibrant shaders also look great through Optifine with no immediate settings changes needed. For those without quite as much a powerhouse PC, the Sildur's Enhanced Default shaders will soup up your game with shadows and god rays without straining your machine.</div><div></div><div></div><div>BSL is my personal favorite shader pack. I prefer its softer look to Sildur's super powerful colors. It's great for build screenshots and easy on the eyes while playing. BSL is still getting regular fixes and updates as of 2023, so you can be sure this one will stay relevant for a while to come. BSL works well for me with a fresh install, but you can find solutions to common questions and issues in BSL's FAQ section.</div><div></div><div></div><div>SEUS shaders are a long time favorite for Minecraft players and for good reason. Sonic Ether's shader pack is bright and clear by default, and not quite as color saturated as Sildur's. SEUS has a great realistic feel with crisp days and dark nights.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Complementary is based on BSL shaders, and its creator says it aims to "provide you with the most issueless experience possible." True enough, I didn't feel the need to tweak any of Complementary settings. You can spot that it has a realistic vibe, maybe even more so than SEUS.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Chocapic's shaders attempt to maintain high quality even at low settings and comes with different files for Low, Medium, High, Extreme, and Ultra. I'm using the Medium pack in my screenshots, and you can spot that it does still look great but doesn't have as intense lighting effects on torches as some of the above options, for instance.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Project LUMA is the successor to formerly popular shader pack KUDA, which says its aim is "playing Minecraft without the effects distracting you from the gameplay." I felt this most in how clear LUMA plays while underwater or in the rain. Other shader packs heap on a lot of atmosphere and fog effects for a moodier underwater experience but LUMA maintains a lot of clarity. If you enjoy playing underwater, this may be the way to go. LUMA hasn't been updated since 2019 but still plays well in 2023.</div><div></div><div></div><div>The Sora shader pack bills itself as another gameplay focused pack that isn't super high contrast. You can definitely get that feel in this screenshot, which has brighter shadows than other popular packs. Sora also advertises its many color profile settings, which you can toggle between really easily in its settings to get a different look.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Vanilla Plus is a pack that really pares the shader experience down to shadows and god rays. No realistic clouds or water here. This is vanilla Minecraft but just slightly prettier. The bonus is that the fewer effects are much easier on your machine than some of these shader packs. PC gamers without fancy rigs deserve a beautiful mining experience too. If you're up to it, Vanilla Plus does have a "Fancy" profile in its settings that includes pretty, reflective water.</div><div></div><div> 9738318194</div>
