How to Fix Missing Sky, Water, or Foliage Effects

Resolving Resource Pack Load Order Conflicts

If you play with multiple texture or UI packs enabled at the same time, another pack might overwrite the custom textures and animations included in BGRD Shaders.

1. Save and quit to the title screen, or open Settings and go to Global Resources.

2. Open the Active packs list.

3. Select BGRD Shaders and use the arrow button to move it to the very top of the stack.

4. Reload your world. Having the pack at the highest priority ensures its transparent water, atmospheric fog, and animated grass take precedence over standard texture packs.

Adjusting Vanilla Video Settings

Certain built-in graphics toggles in Bedrock Edition can disable custom skyboxes and shader-style animations if turned off to save performance.

1. Open the pause menu and navigate to Settings, then select Video.

2. Scroll down to locate the Beautiful Skies toggle and switch it on; when disabled, the game hides the realistic sky, custom sun, and custom moon.

3. Check your Render Distance slider. If it is set too low, the atmospheric fog will sit too close to the camera or fail to blend naturally with distant chunks.
