Cyberspace Shaders FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn on Cyberspace Shaders after installing it?
Open your Video Settings, go to Shaders, and select Cyberspace Shaders from the list. The effect applies immediately to your world.
Why is my world too dark and I can't see anything?
Use the shader's intensity or brightness slider in the shader options menu to increase visibility. You can also adjust glow settings to make neon points brighter without affecting the dark aesthetic.
Can I use Cyberspace Shaders with other mods?
Yes, it works with most mods since it only affects visuals. However, mods that heavily modify lighting or add custom blocks may look unusual with the LiDAR effect applied.
My FPS dropped when I enabled the shader. How do I fix it?
Lower your render distance and disable shadow quality in the shader settings. Cyberspace Shaders is optimized for low-end hardware, so reducing other graphics settings should restore smooth performance.
Does the shader work in caves and underground?
Yes, but caves appear very dark since the shader removes standard lighting. Increase the glow intensity or use torches to create visible neon points in dark areas.
Can I adjust how bright the neon grid lines are?
Most versions include glow and intensity sliders in the shader options menu. Experiment with these settings to find the balance between visibility and the dark sci-fi atmosphere.
Why do some blocks look weird or invisible with this shader?
Cyberspace Shaders converts all blocks into a point-cloud grid style, so transparent or complex blocks may render differently than expected. This is intentional for the LiDAR aesthetic.
Does this shader work with ray tracing or other advanced shaders?
No, Cyberspace Shaders replaces the standard rendering pipeline and cannot be combined with ray tracing or other shader packs simultaneously.
How do I take good screenshots with the LiDAR look?
Position yourself in open areas with varied terrain or detailed builds to show off the grid and neon points. Increase glow settings before screenshotting to make the sci-fi effect more striking.
Can I disable the shader for just one world or dimension?
No, shader settings apply globally to all worlds. You'll need to toggle the shader on and off in Video Settings if you want to switch between the LiDAR look and normal visuals.
