Optimizing Water and Lighting for Better Visuals

Access Shader Settings

Open the shader options menu while in-game. Look for sections dedicated to water and lighting effects—these are the primary visual features Actmos Shaders enhances.

Configure Water Quality

Actmos provides clean, refined water rendering. Adjust water settings to control reflection detail and transparency. Higher settings add reflections of the sky and terrain, while lower settings keep water simple but fast. Test near oceans and rivers to see the difference clearly.

Tune Lighting Effects

The soft lighting system is central to Actmos's atmosphere. Look for options controlling:

• Shadow intensity: Affects how dark shadowed areas appear
• Ambient light: Controls overall brightness in caves and night scenes
• Color grading: Adjusts how different biomes feel tonally

Observe Time of Day Changes

Load into a world and use /time set commands to cycle through sunrise, noon, sunset, and night. Watch how the shader's lighting adapts. This helps you appreciate the atmospheric improvements and confirm settings match your preference.
