Can I turn off the swaying leaves and plant movement?
Yes, you can toggle the natural movement settings in the configuration menu to stop wild plants, flowers, and tree leaves from swaying in the wind.
How do I make water reflections look clearer?
Water reflections are enabled by default and react dynamically to the sky and nearby blocks; you can further adjust their intensity in the shader water settings.
Why are my shadows looking too harsh or too soft?
Aurora Viva Shaders balances vanilla block textures with modern lighting and soft shadow effects, which can be fine-tuned using the shadow quality options in the menu.
Why is my frame rate dropping after turning on the shaders?
Your hardware might be struggling with heavy features like volumetric clouds and deep fog; try switching to a lower quality preset to improve performance.
Are the sky colors customizable?
The warm sky colors are built into the shader pack to give the landscape a bright, cozy look, though specific color tweaks depend on the available preset options.
Do I need to install anything else for these shaders to work?
Aurora Viva Shaders builds upon Chocapic13 V9, so ensure you have the appropriate rendering mod or loader installed that supports these shader packs.
Why are my water reflections not updating properly?
Check your shader settings to ensure reflections are enabled, and verify that your graphics driver is up to date to support clear water rendering.
