# Wispy Shaders V1.4<\/p>\n
A performance-optimized shader pack initially based on Mellow Shaders and outperforms many other so claimed ‘potato’ shaders. Works on all major versions<\/p>\n
## Credits<\/p>\n
* **Original Shader**: Mellow Shaders by TheCMK
\n* **Performance Optimizations**: l_aggy<\/p>\n
## Features<\/p>\n
(All information and statistics is based on V1.3)<\/p>\n
* **Ultra-optimized** for integrated graphics (iGPUs)
\n* **40%+** improvement on Balanced compared to MakeUp-Ultrafast with all effects off
\n* **Color grading** and biome\u2011specific lighting for all dimensions.
\n* **Cinematic post\u2011processing**: bloom, sharpening, tonemapping, TAA, motion blur, film grain, vignette.<\/p>\n
## To-do<\/p>\n
1. More benchmarking
\n2. Adding features (Can’t really optimize more)
\n3. Bugfix some features<\/p>\n
## Performance Profiles<\/p>\n
* iGPU (8 Chunks) tested on i5-4570 (HD4600) on CachyOS<\/p>\n
* dGPU (24 Chunks) tested on R9 8940HX (5060 Laptop=4060 desktop) on Windows 11<\/p>\n
* Choose a profile in shader settings that matches your hardware:<\/p>\n

\n2. Download Wispy Shaders
\n3. Place the ZIP file in `.minecraft\/shaderpacks\/`
\n4. Select Wispy in Video Settings \u2192 Shaders
\n5. Choose a performance profile<\/p>\n
\n* Fast gamma correction
\n* Simplified post-processing
\n* Optimized every composite pass and fog,lighting,sky,water,taa,bloom e.t.c
\n* Reduced shader complexity
\n* Too many to count now mainly faster math less calls,lookups and samples check source for more<\/p>\n
