Open the shaderpack with 7zip or winrar.<\/p>\n<p>2. Navigate to the **shaders** folder and open the **item.properties** file with a text editor.<br \/>\n   ![A screenshot of where the item.properties file can be found](https:\/\/cdn.modrinth.com\/data\/cached_images\/908153328f6bd1648da077192c87bb8aa09ac4be.png)<\/p>\n<p>3.
