Beyond Belief Shaders FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I enable the shader after installing it?
Open your Video Settings, go to Shaders, and select Beyond Belief Shaders from the list. The shader will apply immediately to your world.
Why is my game running slowly with this shader on?
Shaders are performance-intensive; try lowering your render distance, disabling shadow quality settings, or reducing lighting intensity in the shader options menu.
Can I use this shader with other mods?
Beyond Belief Shaders works with most mods, but mods that heavily modify lighting or block rendering may cause conflicts or visual glitches.
How do I adjust how bright or dark my world looks?
Access the shader settings through Video Settings > Shaders > Shader Options, where you'll find brightness and lighting intensity sliders to customize the look.
Why do shadows look weird or blocky?
Shadow quality depends on your shadow distance setting; increase it in the shader options for smoother shadows, though this will impact performance.
Does this shader work in the Nether and End?
Yes, the shader applies to all dimensions, though the lighting effects may look different due to the unique lighting conditions in those areas.
Can I make water look more realistic?
The shader includes water reflection and transparency settings in the options menu that you can adjust to enhance how water appears.
What GPU do I need to run this shader smoothly?
A dedicated graphics card is recommended; integrated graphics may struggle, but you can optimize by lowering shadow distance and render distance.
Why does the shader look different at sunrise and sunset?
Beyond Belief Shaders includes time-of-day lighting adjustments that automatically change shadow angles and color temperature based on the in-game time.
How do I turn off specific shader features I don't like?
Open the Shader Options menu and look for toggles or sliders for individual features like shadows, ambient occlusion, or bloom effects to disable what you don't want.
