Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the Vanilla Deferred Lighting Shader?
After activating the pack, you must enable the “Render Dragon Features for Creators” experimental feature in your world settings. Then, change your graphics mode to “Diferred Technical Preview” in the world’s video settings.
Does this shader change how the default Minecraft lighting looks?
No, it does not change any lighting. It acts as a switch to enable the deferred technical preview while letting you keep the full vanilla look.
How do I switch to volumetric fog?
Open the pack settings and switch your configuration from the default option to the volumetric fog variant.
Why is the shader causing bugs, glitches, or performance drops?
This feature is currently only available on beta and preview versions, and it is not yet fully optimized, which can lead to performance issues and visual bugs.
