Frequently Asked Questions

REQUIREMENTS

What are the requirements?

• Minecraft 1.7.10 or above.
• Optifine (Latest version recommended).

I have a config file (shader options file). How do I install it?

• Put the config file inside .minecraft\shaderpacks
• Rename the config file to the shaderpack's name (extension included, ended with .txt)
  Example: TBB.zip uses the config TBB.zip.txt
• Choose the shader.

What are the recommended video settings?

• Graphics : Fancy
• Render Distance : 8 or Above (I test at 8)
• Smooth Lighting : Maximum
• Smooth Lighting Level : 100%
• Dynamic Lights : Fast / Fancy
• Sky : On

Can I run this in Minecraft 1.X.X?

Shaderpacks are usually not affected by Minecraft version. The lowest version I recommend is 1.12.2 though.
Older than that, it's still useable but it may have some issues.

Should I change render quality and shadow quality in Shaders menu?

• Render quality, you can lower it for sure. However, I'd recommend using the built in anti-aliasing (FXAA or TAA) instead of higher render quality since it is less taxing on FPS.
• Shadow quality, don't. You can change it through shader options. Shadows > change Shadowmap Resolution and/or Shadow Distance.

VIDEO SETTINGS

My top half of the sky is broken.

Video Settings > Details > enable Sky.

I don't bring light sources and caves are too dark.

Video Settings > change Brightness.
This shader uses similar brightness to vanilla on caves (unless you change certain settings).
