# RealisticallyOptimized Shader<\/p>\n
## Overview
\nRealisticallyOptimized is a stylized, performance-focused shader preset with toon lighting, strong outlines, brighter sky highlights, deeper nights, and improved emissive handling for ores and light sources.<\/p>\n
## Features
\n– Real-time shadow mapping for terrain, entities, textured geometry, and water.
\n– Toon ramp direct lighting with adjustable shadow darkness and step count.
\n– Day\/night color tinting with global vibrance control.
\n– White world outline effect in final pass (Complementary-inspired depth-based method).
\n– Adjustable outline thickness and brightness.
\n– Brighter sky\/sun\/moon rendering with preserved geometry separation.
\n– Darker nighttime grading with optional cool blue weather\/night tint.
\n– Enhanced blocklight contribution across terrain, entities, and textured passes.
\n– Stronger emissive treatment for major light sources (torch, lantern, glowstone, sea lantern, candles, campfire, etc.).
\n– Complementary-style glowing ores using per-ore groups and per-pixel ore-part detection:
\n– Iron, Gold, Copper, Lapis, Emerald, Diamond, Nether Quartz, Nether Gold, Redstone.
\n– Adjustable ore glow strength (`GLOWING_ORE_MULT`).
\n– Water shading with toon-lit base and no forced water glow overlay.
\n– Waving vegetation support via custom block material IDs.<\/p>\n
