Navigating Underwater Views and Water Physics

Discovering Realistic Water Waves and Caustics

The Newb X RTX Shader significantly improves how water behaves and looks across your worlds. Whether you are exploring a village near water during the day or diving into the ocean:

1. Approach any body of water to observe realistic water waves, dynamic caustics, and visible water depths accompanied by sun rays filtering down.

2. Take a boat or swim across wide water views to see how the lighting interacts with the surface.

Venturing Into Ocean Monuments

To test the underwater lighting enhancements firsthand:

1. Dive beneath the surface of the ocean to find an ocean monument.

2. Observe how the shader illuminates the structure, highlighting glowing blocks and casting light onto swimming guardians.

3. Adjust your view distance or position to make the most of the advanced lighting effects and water clarity provided by the deferred lighting engine, giving your Bedrock underwater exploration a fresh, high-end visual upgrade.
