I love eclipse but god I wish the lighting was more better, is there anything that would fit my use case? I also need it to be compatible with voxy, I wanted to look through the chinese shaderpack but really struggled searching for them.
So I did it. I finally ordered the parts for my pc I've wanted to build for years. TLDR: recommend me some beautiful intensive shaders.
This may seem really silly to have invested so much money into a pc mainly to play minecraft. 'Sob' story incoming.
I've always loved minecraft, and it's been a huge part of my life for 14 years. I started off playing various free rip offs, then the lite version, then pocket edition, and then finally xbox 360. At age 11 I played java with my brother on my mum's cheap, crappy laptop. At age 14, I got the privelege on playing on a very, very cheap pc that could barely play vanilla survival without crashing.
But I loved every second. I consumed so much minecraft content and no other game compares. DanTDM, Pat and Jen, the dreaded DreamSMP, Hermitcraft, etc etc. I'm even in stampy's love garden. But I could never properly play myself, I could only watch my older brother in jealousy.
For the past year, I saved up £3k in preparation to build the most excessive gaming PC imaginable for my 20th birthday at the end of this month. I ended up choosing an RTX 5080, AMD Ryzen 7 9800X3D, 32GB RAM, and 2TB SSD. I also ordered an OLED ultrawide 34" monitor in 1440p. And yes, I want to play other games too, but honestly... I just wanna play minecraft...
Anyway, in commemoration, I want to test out some of the most beautiful shaders minecraft has to offer, so I thought I'd ask on this sub. Please give me your favourites, but also the most demanding, just for fun. Especially shaders that look beautiful in ultra-wide OLED. Thanks :D
SoczystaWolowina IterationRP edit
Shader (and version)
Bliss shaders Unstable (I couldn't find the version)
Minecraft/Mod Version
Minecraft 26.1.2, Iris 1.10.9, Fabric 0.19.2
Hardware Specs
Ryzen 5 7600, 12gb RAM allocated, rx9060xt 16GB
Additional details
There's almost a ~50 fps drop compared to the ground
Looking at too much water annihilates the framerate. I can tell the quality is superb, but it's really not necessary. Is there some tweak I can do to make it more bearable? Or should I just accept it or change shaders? If I go higher up and look at more water blocks at once, it gets even worse.
Edit: This also applies while I'm underwater looking at the Sun, so I guess it's something about lighting.
Shader
- Complementary Unbound r5.8 + Euphoria Patches 1.9.0 (Other shaders behave the same)
Minecraft/Mod Version
- Fabric 1.21.11
- Sodium 0.8.11 (Other version tested, no difference)
- Iris 1.10.7 (Also tested the other versions)
- Other mods irrelevant. Already tried barebones setup.
Hardware Specs
- RTX 4060 Laptop
- I7 12650H 32 GB (10GB Allocated to Minecraft)
Additional details
- Both monitors 1080p
- I massively undervolted the GPU. This is a 100W TDP RTX 4060 but for temperature and noise control, I undervolted the hell out of it. This has no effect on the problem.
- Other games not affected. Only Minecraft with Sodium and Iris
- Nvidia version 596.49
- Vsync off
Setup
So basically my laptop has 2 external monitor port. HDMI and Mini DP. My current setup uses Mini DP port which is connected directly to RTX 4060 Laptop GPU, bypassing the iGPU entirely, to an external monitor.
Situation
Playing using pure dGPU cuts the utilization by about 12-13%, resulting in a similar percentage of fps loss. Using my main laptop monitor, which naturally uses hybrid mode with iGPU, contrary to how it usually drop fps, Minecraft utilize the full RTX 4060 which results in fps gained
What is actually happening here? I’ve never actually seen this problem before. Can someone help me?
This happens on any version of the shader and seems to be amplified with DOF enabled. No setting seems to even do anything. Even messing with the denoising settings doesnt help at all.
This sucks because IterationRP can look really good in caves but this shimmering takes away from that so much.
EDIT: It seems to go away when disabling Parallax Occlusion Mapping. Although I really like that effect so its not really a solution.
I primarily play on Complimentary Unbound but switching to Photon has been so nice and refreshing!
i saw this image on a post and was trying to look for the
shader until i noticed this has been modified, so im
wondering if there is any SIMILAR shaders? with shimmery
reflections like the ones in the water
Hey all,
I want to run emanrux shaders, voxy and patrix 256, but I find it difficult to figure out definitively exactly what extra mods I need, which launcher, etc. On the patrix patreon he lists out some like continuity, sodium, etc, but what about indium and lithium? What other optimization tools do I need for all of these? Also, which terrain generator is best for a pretty and aesthetic world that is actually playable?
I have 64gb ram, 9950X3D and a 5090, so performance shouldn't really be a problem (I hope)
Would be super happy for any tips or pointers to some good guides for getting these to work well together!
added dust motes with high customizibility

Seus may be prettier, but iterationsRP is so damn realistic.

(~50-60fps on tense scenes and ~70 on lighter scenes in 1440p)
Tweaked photon a little bit. Performance wise its quite similar, maybe -10 fps or something.
Love me some shaders.

THIRD time i try to ask for help here.
Photon Shaders has this problem: indoors, if you move away from the natural light source, a kind of shadow will appear that makes the sky black. I HATE IT.
I want to get rid of it, but nothing I try works. I feel like I've tried everything. It just ruins the fun of building. I don't want this darkness.
