Hy Shaders Vanilla FAQ

Open your video settings in-game, find the Shaders option, and select HyShaders Vanilla from the list. You'll see the changes take effect immediately in your world.

Flickering shadows often happen when settings conflict with your graphics card. Try adjusting the shadow distance or quality in the shader settings menu, or disable any conflicting mods that alter lighting.

Yes—HyShaders Vanilla is designed to be lightweight. If you still experience lag, lower the shadow quality or distance in the shader options to improve frame rates.

HyShaders Vanilla works with most mods, but mods that heavily modify lighting or block rendering may cause conflicts. Test your mod combination and adjust shader settings if needed.

The shader improves cave lighting automatically, but you can enhance it further by adjusting the ambient light or shadow settings in the shader options to make dark areas more visible without losing atmosphere.

No—HyShaders Vanilla keeps Minecraft's original blocky pixel art style intact. It only improves lighting, shadows, and colors, not the appearance of blocks themselves.

Go to video settings, open the Shaders menu, and select 'None' or the default option to disable the shader and return to vanilla lighting.

Lower the shadow quality, reduce shadow distance, or disable advanced lighting features in the shader settings. Start with small changes and test performance after each adjustment.

Shaders are client-side only, so they affect only what you see—other players won't see your shader effects, and servers won't block you for using it.

This usually means the ambient light or contrast settings need adjustment. Open the shader settings and tweak the brightness or lighting balance until the world looks right to you.
