Open Shader Settings

Access your Contour Shaders customization menu through your shader configuration panel.

Fine-Tune Outline Thickness

Locate the Outline Thickness slider. Increase it to make borders wider and more prominent, or decrease it for thinner, more subtle lines. This affects all mobs, players, and items equally.

Control Outline Darkness

Use the Outline Darkness setting to adjust how dark or light the colored borders appear. A higher darkness value creates bold, saturated lines, while lower values produce lighter, more transparent outlines.

Test Your Preferences

Apply your changes and look at nearby mobs or players to see the effect in real-time. Thicker outlines work well for visibility at distance, while thinner lines suit closer gameplay. Darkness settings help balance the outlines with your world's lighting conditions.

Save and Adjust

Settings typically save automatically. Feel free to revisit and tweak these values until the outlines match your preferred visual style.
