Arc

A shader for Iris & Optifine that aims to providing realistic visuals with very minimal performance loss. Almost every effect/feature can be fine-tuned for the ideal balance between performance and quality. This project is still in beta but will be reaching initial release very soon!
 
### Features
– HDR
– Full PBR support
– Dynamic, direct, colored block lighting
– Volumetric fog/lighting
– Automatic exposure
– Screen-space reflections
– Water waves & refraction
– Supports distorted and cascaded shadow mapping.
– Depth-of-Field
– Bloom

Also contains special support for [PhysicsMod](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/physics-mod) ocean waves & snow!

### Resource Packs
Supports LabPBR and OldPBR texture formats; The default setting for materials is “vanilla”, which hard-codes a limited set of PBR material values for the original Minecraft textures.

The recommended resource pack is [Patrix](https://www.patreon.com/patrix); when used make sure to set the shader setting for Material Format to “Patrix”, as it uses a special combination of OldPBR and LabPBR formats.

### Compatibility & Support
For best results use Iris 1.6 or later; however most features should work with Optifine or Oculus. If you have any suggestions or requests, you can reach out to me on the [ShaderLabs Discord](https://discord.gg/9CRwrfYU).

Aragorn’s Light Shader

# ARAGORN’S LIGHT SHADER

This is a simple, lightweight shader based on Iris that adds realistic anti aliasing shadows and realistic water and clouds. It is not resource-heavy and is ideal for most users.

IMPORTANT: Kindly disable clouds through ‘Options > Video Settings’ as the shader includes a custom cloud engine.

Amethyst Shaders

Based on [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined)

Supports Distant Horizons AND PBR!

[WIP] Amethyst Shaders are a modified version on [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined), with quite a few tweaks to suit our visual style. **It is an Official Amethyst Group Project, made by gamerbenyt.**

**Amethyst Shaders** is in a **very Early Alpha state**, and has many bugs. If you encounter any bugs, please [**create a ticket**](https://github.com/gamerbenyt/amethyst-shaders/issues/new) on the **Amethyst Shaders Support Github**.

**Modifications:**
– **Daytime sky is more blue**
– **Clouds have a thick shiny outline to them (does not reflect world outline preferences)**
– **All blocks are more vibrant**
– **The Nether is more contrasty (eg. brighter blue in soul sand valleys)**
– **The End has brighter beams (the fog-type thing) and more stars**
– **The End has a brighter blue-ish-purple sky**
– **Rain adds visible light rays to light-emmiting blocks (eg. nether portal)**
– **Modified pixelated shadows, included in the default profile.**

Our Developers say that they prefer the Reimagined style, as that is what Amethyst Shaders is based on, but there is an option for the Unbound visual style, like normal Complementary.

### Notice:
Though Amethyst Shaders is based on [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined), it **WILL NOT** be getting updates when Reimagined does, and the only updates that will be brought over from [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined), is their updated license, though updates to the license are very rare. We include the Complementary License and follow it, but you must also agree to [**Our License**](https://github.com/gamerbenyt/Amethyst/blob/main/LICENSE)

### Don’t give us the credit!
**Amethyst Shaders is based on [Complementary Reimagined](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined), and we have only modified it to our liking! Go support the [Complementary Team](https://www.patreon.com/emingt)!**

## Amethyst Shaders 2.3 Out Now!

## Compatibility
Amethyst Shaders was build and playtesting using [**Iris**](https://modrinth.com/mod/iris) but should have some compatibility with [**Optifine**](https://optifine.net/home), as [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined) works on [**Optifine**](https://optifine.net/home). We cannot guarantee that all features will be functional, or function correctly on [**Optifine**](https://optifine.net/home), but most people use [**Iris**](https://modrinth.com/mod/iris) nowadays anyways, so it should be no problem.

3D Displacement Test Shader

This shader uses Screen Space Displacement as an alternative to POM.

As a result, blocks are re-rendered per-pixel as Highly Detailed 3D Models.

**Use a POM resource pack.** [Rotr blocks](https://modrinth.com/resourcepack/rotrblocks) is shown.

This is just for fun, and to test out if this technique is viable for use in Minecraft. It is very experimental, and will probably look very cursed and buggy in some cases.

Do not expect changing any other options outside the ‘Displacement” menu to not break things, again, this is an experimental test shader. (it is built over the ‘Just Colored Lighting’ shader)

Please give me feedback here & on discord, if you want this to get better.
If you want, you can support me & my projects on Patreon & Youtube

Have Fun!

Makes your Minecraft world look like it was filmed with an old 2000s camera – nostalgic vibes and retro atmosphere 🙂

I’ve been doing my projects and stuff, but at some point I fell in nostalgia, remembering these days playing with old cameras as a kid and these records with a lot of bloom and noise…
I decided to quickly make a Minecraft shader doing similar thing.

I hope, I’ve done my job!
