Maintaining High Frame Rates While Using Shaders

Verifying Performance on Low-End Hardware

Cozy & Light is built to avoid the heavy, complicated visual effects that cause stuttering or frame drops. If you want a visual upgrade on a modest computer, configure your base settings to match:

1. Press F3 in-game to bring up the vanilla debug overlay and check your current frame rate.

2. In Video Settings, ensure your render distance is set to a level your machine comfortably handles in vanilla.

3. Walk through dense areas—such as forests or large survival bases—and verify that your frame rate remains stable.

Troubleshooting Stutter and Heavy Scenes

If you experience any slowdown in visually busy areas:

1. Open your Video Settings and lower standard performance-heavy vanilla options, such as simulation distance or entity distance.

2. Ensure other resource-intensive background applications on your computer are closed.

3. Confirm that Cozy & Light remains your active shader pack; because it strips out heavy post-processing effects, it provides steady performance where typical shader packs would cause substantial lag.
