Frequently asked questions

How do I get the mod to keep my resource packs active?
It works automatically as soon as it is active in your game. Whenever a resource pack has a broken shader, the mod substitutes a default or dummy fallback shader so Minecraft does not force your entire pack list to unload.
Where do I see what went wrong with a broken shader?
The mod displays exact shader error messages directly on your screen instead of forcing you to dig through crash reports. Depending on your settings, these alerts appear in a box in the top-left corner, in your in-game chat, or in both places at once.
How can I move or hide the top-left error box?
Open the mod's configuration settings to change how alerts are displayed. You can switch the error output between the top-left overlay box, the in-game chat, or both.
How do I reload my custom shaders quickly while testing?
Use the quick hot-reload key added by the mod to refresh your shaders without going through the resource pack menu. Check your Minecraft keybind controls to see what key it is bound to or assign it to a button you prefer.
