Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on AuroraRT Shaders after installing it?
Open Options > Video Settings > Shaders, then locate and select AuroraRT from your shader list. Click Apply and the shaders will load into your world immediately.
Why do my shadows look choppy or blocky?
Shadow quality is tied to performance settings. Open the shader options menu (usually by pressing a hotkey in-game or via Video Settings > Shaders > Shader Options) and increase the shadow map resolution or quality slider to smooth them out, though this will impact frame rate.
Can I use AuroraRT with other mods?
AuroraRT works with most mods, but mods that heavily alter lighting, water rendering, or the sky may conflict. Test your mod combination in a test world first; if you see visual glitches, try disabling conflicting mods or shader features.
My water looks weird or doesn't reflect properly—what's wrong?
Check the shader options for water reflection and clarity settings. If reflections are disabled or set too low, enable them and increase the reflection quality. Also ensure your render distance isn't set too low, as this can limit what the water reflects.
