Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on Vibrant Realism PBR Shader after installing it?
Open Settings, go to Global Resources, find Vibrant Realism PBR Shader in your packs list and activate it so it moves into the active list. Then load or reload a world, because the new lighting usually only appears once a world starts.
How can I tell if the shader is actually working?
Stand outside during the day and look for clear shadows cast by trees and blocks, along with warmer, more realistic sunlight. Then walk to an ocean, river or lake and check for smooth reflections on the water surface. If everything looks like vanilla, the pack isn't active or something is overriding it.
Do I need a PBR texture pack for this shader to do anything?
No. The shader changes sunlight, shadows, water reflections and ambient light with the regular textures. It is also built to work with PBR texture types, so adding a PBR pack gives blocks more surface detail under the new lighting.
My PBR texture pack and the shader don't look right together, what order should they be in?
In Global Resources, packs higher in the active list take priority. If the lighting or water looks vanilla, move the shader above the texture pack. If the PBR surface detail is missing instead, try the other order and compare the two in the same scene.
