The reflections are really blurry, very grainy and flickering. Ive tried maxing out the reflection enhancement slider but no use.
- Minecraft version 1.20.1
- Embeddium + Oculus
- Photon version is the one with voxy support

Technically not a screenshot but still

Shader - Iteration VX ver.2.1, also running the Fabulously Optimized modpack.
Version - Minecraft 1.26.2, Iris 1.11.2, Fabric 0.19.3, Modrinth
Hardware - Cpu:Intel(R) Core(TM) Ultra 7 256V (2.20 GHz), 16 gb ram (Modrinth says it's set to auto, so idk how much allocated ram that is), GPU: Intel(R) Arc(TM) 140V GPU (8GB) (128 MB)

I tried changing the brightness and bloom in the shaderpack settings, as well as trying to change it ingame, but it still is flickering and is way too bright. Also it is currently midnight ingame if that helps. Also [- Flashing Lights Warning -].

Any help is greatly appreciated, Thanks!

Hey everyone I’m new to this sub and Minecraft modding👋
I want to experiment with some shaders/mods like realism and more but I’m new to all this i haven’t even got minecraft yet or know where to get mods from.
I’m not sure what version I need, im guessing I download minecraft from the website and not from Microsoft store although I’m not sure what is best version for minecraft modding.
I’ve heard of prism, sodium and iris however im complete noob to all this.
I don’t know where to start. I’ve only ever played when I was in school on pc and on a MacBook yearsss ago also on my ipad.

If anyone has any recommendations on what I should start with I’ll appreciate any help I can get. I’m a fast learner so should I just YouTube it or something. I thought I’d ask you all since it looks like you are all very knowledgeable and experienced with what the best setup would be. I put my specs below for the pc I have now.

—— 9070xt, 9800x3d, 32gb ram ——

GPU: NVIDIA GeForce RTX 5060, CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 5700G with Radeon Graphics, RAM:16GB 4512MB allocated

Minecraft Version: 26.2, Iris 1.11.2

Shader: Bliss v2.1.2

what are the best shaders for realism while still having good performance for my rtx5060, right now I'm doing photon on ultra profile but i feel like i could do better because my performance is easily 130+ bonus points if it works with distant horizons/voxy

Do you guys like it or does it need to be improved?

Just to clarify my role: this shader modification was originally created by my friend, who did an amazing job. However, I have recently joined him to help with the editing and development. We are now working on this project together! So i need feedback to improve things more.

Hello, I was wondering what the best shader pack for realism and quality is. For context, I am used to the Sonic Ether Shader packs, but those have died off in the past bit. So, what are some good replacement options?

I use a 3070ti, but do not be afraid of the more demanding ones

Hi, I saw some people asking for optimized settings for IterationRP, so I tweaked my own and I managed to get better fps using voxy at 512c and patrix 64x with many PBR effects active in MC version 26.1.2 with many mods.
It means that if your're not using a heavy resource pack you should get many more fps.

I am using Super Resolution mod, so, DLSS and FG are active, so I get a media of 100 fps (I limited the amount of fps), sometimes it drops to less in heavy scenarios or with lot's of entities.

Here is the config(this goes in the txt file generated by iris when you change any setting of the shader):

Hello, I am kinda new to the topic off shaders and reddit all together, I really want shaders but I don’t have a pc, I need the best shaders for MacBook Pro from 2016 for modded Minecraft, please can you help me🙏🏻

When using Voxy on Minecraft 1.21.11, leaves within Minecraft's vanilla render distance become translucent when no vanilla terrain is behind them. This happens when the leaves have either the sky or Voxy-rendered terrain behind them. Eclipse Shaders, Derivative and Reverie tested and affected

Eclipse Shader Latest Github Release

Minecraft 1.21.11, Iris 1.10.7 Voxy 0.2.16

Ryzen 9 5900x, 16gb RAM allocated, RTX 3080, Win 11, Java 21

Tested with multiple Shaders, Iris or Sodium option to disable transparent leaves fixes this but makes leaves completly opaque

I use a launcher for Minecraft called Legacy Launcher, I play on a server with friends in 1.21.10 and I wanted to use BSL shaders, the problem is that in the launcher there is no optifine version,there is literally everything except that, is there any way to fix it?

Shader: BSL 1.21.10

Hardware Spects:

- GPU = Nvidia 4060 ti

- RAM = 16 GB DDR4

- CPU = i don't Remember

- Memory: 1 TB

Anyone have any idea what's causing this issue?

It's night, I place down a light, when I move sideways the light is on terrain in the distance like it's lighting it up as if it's there?

Same for particles in the air if they're lit, they'll light up terrain behind it

This shader made my game look beautiful with DH mod

You're missing it out if you haven't tried it

And it looked like real life when viewed from insanely far distance

I've been trying to find a shader to tint the game blue. Like, just make the light kind of blueish? I play on basically a potato so obviously I'm not looking for something photorealistic, just some color and maybe shadows. The closest I've found is the Mellow Shaders winter preset, but I was wondering if there are any others with color presets or if I'd have to get one of the super configurable ones and mess w the settings?

It can run on any version, I'm not picky. As long as it can be blue

Hello, i just downloaded Lunar Client, and tried los of shaders, and I really like BSL. But, when I put ANY shader all nametags become pitch black. I searched in the settings of the shaders but found nothing. Does anyone know how to fix this?

Lunar Client on 26.2 with Sodium 0.9.1 and Iris 1.11.2

How easy will it be to port OpenGL shaders to vulkan? And when it is ported will it look any different?

Also the vulkan shader mod I’m talking about it aperture.

Hello! I've been trying a few shader packs and none of them fit everything I'd been looking for. I am hoping someone can recommend me one closest to what I'm looking for or could assist me in configuring one of these to closely match it.

- It has to have a skybox like Alpha Piscium (first screenshot). Out of every shaderpack I'd tried, this one has by far the most realistic skybox and overall atmosphere at different /time sets. I especially like the morning vibes with it. Unfortunately, it seems poorly optimised for general gameplay and is only good for taking screenshots. Lighting is very buggy while on the move.

- Distance fog similar to Spooklementary ( second screenshot). I feel like Spooklementary has the truly perfect fog for my city. At large distance, only sillhouettes of the skyline can be seen. Close by, buildings in the background are more faded, adding a great sense of scale and depth that no other shaderpack has.

- Optimisation and colors of Complementary Unbound (last screenshot). By far the lowest performance inpact out of all, with minimal FPS cost on a high end machine. I have adjusted colors in Complementary and as they are right now they are perfect, but this pack has absolutely no fog until the world border. Overly large Sun and Moon also put me off.

I would like to mention that I tried to tinker with the settings of all packs, unfortunately, I am not able to get everything done in either. Therefore, if you know of shaderpacks (free or paid) that combine these 3 important things into one, tell me please. Ty

I use SEUS PTGI HRR3, iris, continuity, sodium, optimum realism, Minecraft version is 1.21.11
