Maximize Cartoon Outlines and Edge Definition

Locate Edge Detection Settings

Open your shader configuration menu and search for options related to outlines, edge detection, or posterization. Animetro Shaders applies dark lines where colors meet, and these settings control how prominent those lines appear.

Increase Outline Thickness

Adjust the edge or outline intensity slider to make the dark lines around blocks and mobs more visible. Higher values create bolder, more dramatic cartoon-style separation between objects and their backgrounds.

Boost Color Banding

Find the posterize or color band setting. This controls how many distinct color levels appear in your world—lower values create flatter, more hand-drawn appearance with clearer boundaries between shades. Increase this value if outlines alone don't give enough separation.

Test in Different Lighting

Move between bright sunlight and shadowed areas to see how outlines perform. Caves and forests will show different edge definition than open plains. Adjust settings until the cartoon effect feels balanced across all lighting conditions.
