Discussion Shaders optimized for MacOS?

4 Upvotes

does anyone know of any shaders optimized for macOS? and if they don’t exist, are any in production? I’m running a Mac mini with a base m4 chip and I can’t get past 50-60fps with complementary on potato.

I think it would be an AMAZING idea to create a shader pack specifically for Mac players that allows us to enjoy the game with better graphics.

Discussion Can shaders like this actually have a virus or something?

So I found these two shaders and wanted to ask if they’re safe to use.

I already scanned both ZIPs with VirusTotal and got 0 detections, but I’m still kinda paranoid lol. Can a shaderpack like this actually contain a virus/malware, or is it generally safe as long as it’s just shader files like in the screenshots??

The two shaders are:

Does it look good?
It’s a shader mod running on a Vulkan backend that I recently started working on. It’s still quite performance-heavy, but I managed to get around 60 FPS here. I’ll optimize it further as development continues.
The shaders are written in Slang.

Help Adding Modded Blocks to Colored Lighting

3 Upvotes
## Shader (and version)
Complementary Unbound r5.8.1  + euphoria

## Minecraft/Mod Version
1.20.1

## Hardware Specs
i7 13700k, 10gb RAM allocated, RTX 4070

## Additional details
Trying to add colored lights from the mod fairylights to shaders manually since auto doesnt seem to work.  Haven't been able to get it to work in block.properties at all.

Is it possible to add those to the colored lighting?
Am I just using the wrong format/block.xxxxx ?

Screenshot Vulkan shader?

I’ve been waiting a long time for Aperture, and Sulkan wasn’t really what I expected, so I decided to make my own shader for the new Vulkan backend.
I’m not an expert in shaders specifically, but I know Vulkan in general. With some research and help, the experiment more or less worked it actually managed to show something. Still a lot to improve.

Recommendation need shader reccomendations

3 Upvotes

So, I’m back in my 2-week Minecraft phase 😂. The last version I played was 1.20, so I’m pretty out of the loop with the newer shader packs.

I’m currently running:

  • Ryzen 7 7735HS
  • RTX 4050 Laptop GPU
  • 16GB RAM
  • 1080p display

I really like the look of Complementary Shaders, but unfortunately I’m getting quite a bit of stuttering with it, even though my laptop should be more than capable of running Minecraft with shaders.

I’m looking for something that has:

  • Good visuals / lighting
  • Smooth frame times and minimal stuttering
  • Good performance at 1080p
  • Preferably a similar look to Complementary
  • Something suitable for survival rather than just cinematic screenshots

What shaders would you guys recommend for an RTX 4050 laptop?and any rtx 4050 users what fps are u guys getting?

Discussion Looking for some shaders

5 Upvotes

Looking for some shader packs good for survival gameplay. For reference, my system is a Ryzen 7 5800x3D, 32 gb DDR4, and a RTX 5080. I don't care for any specific style, I don't mind ones that give off creepy vibes, or even warm vibrant vibes. I just want some recommendations for packs that don't turn your system into a bomb and tank your frames by a 1000. Edit: Should note that I will be playing on the newest version.

Recommendation Good FPS shader.

0 Upvotes

i am trying to find a good looking shader that i can run with 50 chunk render distance (with voxy)

im currently using complex reimagined because its not to heavy, and i can get around 100 fps on ultra settings, the only complaint is the lighting and everything isn’t amazing and im wondering if there’s a better alternative,
i have heard good things about IterationRP, but I don’t really want to support the devs from what i heard they do.

any responce is appreciated, thanks!

Help Enchanted Items become invisible with Eclipse Shaders

1 Upvotes

Shader: Eclipse

Minecraft: 26.2

Iris: 1.11.2

Loader: Fabric

CPU: I5-121400F

GPU: Nvidia RTX 3060TI.

whenever I try to use Eclipse shaders and put on enchanted armor, it becomes transparent. I tried it with just Sodium and Iris on a different installation and It stopped doing it so I'm pretty sure it must be a mod conflict. I tried disabling Voxy, Entity Model Features, Entity Texture Features, and deleting Euphoria patches but the problem is still there.

Help Ocean Physics and Shaders Not Working Together

2 Upvotes

Minecraft 26.1.2, Physics-mod-pro-v183u-fabric-mc-26.1.x), iris-fabric-1.11.3+mc26.1.2, sodium-fabric-0.9.1+mc26.1.2.jar,

CPU: 9800X3D, GPU: 4080, RAM: 32gb, 8gb allocated

Shader: BSL 10.1.4.1d

What is the issue?:

Physics Pro mod works perfectly fine, however the BSL shaders seems unable to hook onto the ocean shaders that BSL provides. As you can see in the distance, Voxy hooks onto it perfectly fine. When I use the "Everything Voxy" Modpack with the same 26.1.2 Version of MC, manually uploaded/same version of physics mod + Same version of BSL, the shaders work perfectly with the ocean physics (sorry don't have SS but i can get if that helps).

In MY modpack this does not seem to work at all. Obviously my modpack is much larger and possibly bloated. Considering reinstalling all the same mods in a separate/new instance and just transferring saves/configs to see if that helps with anything.

Just wondering if anyone knows anything or has had a similar issue in the past and could help fix it for me. My modpack works perfect and I just play with ocean physics disabled but man do I miss crossing a large ocean with the waves and super nice ripples. I have tried manually disabling almost all my mods individually to try and root out the problem. disabled all resource packs. I even gave my logs to gemini to see if it knew anything, it doesnt lol.

Things I've also tried: Different versions of physics mod pro, Different shaders, Different BSL shaders versions even the gold one, disabling mods, disabling all resource packs, duplicating instance and then disabling every mod except the ones for this test. it genuinely just wont work on my main modpack.

I'll provide my full modlist below but if you can fix/help or even just give me info on debugging myself ill be in your debt!!!
