Fix Lumine Visual Shade Not Showing Up or Looking Wrong

If your world still looks like plain vanilla, or the colors seem off, the cause is usually how the pack is activated or stacked.

The shader isn't appearing at all

1. Open Settings → Global Resources and check that Lumine Visual Shade is in the Active list, not just Available.

2. Check the world itself. Go to Edit World → Resource Packs and see whether that world has its own packs that change the look.

3. Fully close and reopen the game after activating. Some changes don't apply cleanly until a restart.

4. Reload the world and compare the sky and water in daylight. These areas show the clearest difference.

The look is partly broken or mixed

Other packs can override parts of the shader. This is especially true of packs that change the sky, water, lighting, or colors.

• Move Lumine Visual Shade to the top of the Active list so it takes priority.
• Temporarily deactivate every other pack. If Lumine then looks right, add your other packs back one at a time to find the one that conflicts.
• Avoid running two shader packs together. Their lighting and color changes will fight each other.

Colors feel too bright or washed out

The pack already brightens the scene and balances it with tone mapping. A very high in-game brightness setting stacks on top of that. Lower the Brightness slider in Settings → Video until the midtones look rich again instead of pale.
