This is a lightweight, horrorfantasy shader designed to give you a dark, gritty, atmospheric experience while keeping Minecraft’s blocky, pixel aesthetic<\/p>\n
### Modes<\/p>\n
**Ultra vs Lite:** Ultra costs more performance but looks better, lite is my super
\noptimized version of the shader that looks really great but still
\ndelivers top notch performance<\/p>\n
### Manual Installation<\/p>\n
**1.** Download the mod & unzip it<\/p>\n
**2.** Install Iris<\/p>\n
**3.** Put the file(s) found in the mod download into your “shaderpacks” folder (if it doesn’t exist, create one)<\/p>\n
**4.** Launch the game and enjoy!<\/p>\n
**Note:** It’s recommened to install manually so you can choose which exact version of the shader you want (Lite or Ultra). By default it will autoinstall the “Lite” version. If that is the version you want then disregard this message<\/p>\n
### Alternative Versions<\/p>\n
– Fantasy Edition | A vibrant, bright, atmospheric aesthetic.<\/p>\n
– Vanilla Edition | A vanilla-like Minecraft aesthetic.<\/p>\n
– Horror Edition | A horror, rustic, or medieval aesthetic.<\/p>\n
