Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the shader after installing it?
Open your Video Settings, go to Shaders, and select Hex's Default Rewrite from the list. The shader will apply immediately to your world.
Why do my shadows look too dark or too light?
Use the shader's settings menu (usually accessible by pressing a hotkey or through Video Settings) to adjust shadow intensity until the contrast matches your preference. The guide 'Adjust Shadow Intensity for Your Build Style' covers this in detail.
Can I use this shader with other mods?
Yes, Hex's Default Rewrite works with most mods, but mods that heavily alter lighting or add custom blocks may cause visual conflicts. Test your mod combination and check community forums if you see unusual colors or artifacts.
My FPS dropped a lot after enabling the shader. How do I fix it?
Lower the shader's visual quality settings or reduce your render distance—see the 'Optimize Performance While Keeping Visual Quality' guide for step-by-step adjustments that balance looks and frame rate.
