About

The GLSL Shaders Mod adds a deferred shading pipeline to Minecraft's rendering system which allows for custom shaders to be used with Minecraft. This mod was created by daxnitro, and modified by karyonix, id_miner, and me, Sonic Ether.

You need to install this mod to use my shaderpack!

How to Install

Visit karyonix's thread for details on how to install the GLSL Shaders Mod.

Setup (PLEASE READ)

The Shaders Mod requires a bit of configuration and knowledge to use properly. This mod is used to power "shaderpacks" and is useless without them.

Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders is the only officially supported shaderpack because it is developed in tandem with the Shaders Mod itself. Most, if not all, other shaderpacks out there are derived from my work. Use SEUS if you want the newest and most efficient shader technology. Scroll down to the Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders section of this post to download.

To use a shaderpack, follow these instructions.

1. Navigate to your .minecraft folder (google is your friend if you don't know how to do this).

2. Create a new folder called shaderpacks (without capital letters) if it isn't already there.

3. Go download my shaderpack "Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders" from below and place the shaderpack in this directory.

4. Valid shaderpacks include .fsh and .vsh files that the Shaders Mod reads to tell your GPU what to do during runtime. These files must be in a folder named shaders within any shaderpack. Shaderpacks may only be uncompressedfolders or .zip files.

The following is an example of the file layout possibilities for the shaderpack Sonic Ether's Unbelievable Shaders v10.1 Ultra

.minecraft/shaderpacks/SEUS v10.1 Ultra/shaders/[.fsh and .vsh shader files here]

or

.minecraft/shaderpacks/SEUS v10.1 Ultra.zip/shaders/[.fsh and .vsh shader files here]

If this layout is not respected, your installed shaderpacks will not work. This is the

should check if your game looks like vanilla Minecraft.

5. In Minecraft, go to Options > Shaders. Here you will see a list of your currently installed shaderpacks. Select a shaderpack by clicking on it.

6. In Options > Shaders, enable "tweakBlockDamage", and disable "CloudShadow"

7. In Options > Shaders, make sure that "OldLighting" is off

Installation Instructions (PLEASE READ)

Tweaks

Once the mod is properly installed, there are a few things you can do to ensure maximum performance.

-Run the game in a smaller resolution in full-screen
-Lower your render distance
-When OptiFine is installed, try toggling "Options > Video Settings > Performance > Smooth FPS:". "ON" gives more responsive input and more steady fps, but likely lower maximum FPS.
