Keeping Smooth Performance on Older Computers

Optimizing Vanilla Video Settings

Cursed Metamorphopsia Shaders is built to stay lightweight and run easily on older computers without causing lag. If your machine still experiences occasional frame drops after enabling the shader, tune your base game settings rather than abandoning the pack.

1. Open Options > Video Settings.

2. Lower Render Distance and Simulation Distance by a few chunks so your processor and graphics card draw fewer distorted blocks at once.

3. Change Graphics from *Fabulous!* to *Fast* or *Fancy*, as *Fabulous!* can conflict with or slow down shader loaders.

4. Set Smooth Lighting to *Minimum* or *Off* if frame rates dip inside dense forests or large builds.

Checking Shader Pack Options

While inside Options > Video Settings > Shaders, look for the Shader Pack Settings button once Cursed Metamorphopsia Shaders is selected. If the pack exposes any adjustable distortion parameters for your loader, you can tweak or reset them there while keeping the lightweight wavy effect intact.
