Enhance Fantasy Lighting for Specific Biomes
Understand AstralCore V2's Lighting Philosophy
The shader applies a fantasy-style color palette globally, making greens more vivid, blues richer, and warm tones more pronounced. Different biomes respond differently to this treatment.
Identify Biome-Specific Effects
Walk through various biomes and observe how the lighting transforms them:
- Forests – greens become more saturated and vibrant
- Deserts – warm oranges and yellows intensify
- Water biomes – blues and teals gain depth
- Snowy areas – whites and cool tones are enhanced
Use Shader Filters (If Available)
Some shader options allow biome-specific tweaks:
- Look for biome-specific sliders or color correction tools
- Adjust hue, saturation, or brightness per biome category
- Test changes in real-time by moving between biomes
Balance Fantasy with Readability
While the fantasy aesthetic is the shader's strength, ensure colors don't become so saturated that blocks are hard to distinguish. If a biome feels overwhelming, slightly reduce saturation or increase contrast to maintain visual clarity while keeping the magical atmosphere.
