Troubleshooting Visual Distortion and Performance Issues
Understanding the Visual Effects
If the screen appears too warped or you cannot see clearly:
- The spiral distortion intensifies over time—this is intentional design, not a bug
- The pulsing intensity naturally cycles between stronger and weaker effects
- Screen tears and vein overlays are permanent visual layers, not glitches
- The dark red tint and edge darkening are core features, not errors
Performance and Compatibility
Demonic Possession Shaders is visually intensive. If you experience lag:
- Reduce render distance in Video Settings
- Lower other graphics settings (particles, clouds, etc.)
- Close background applications to free up system resources
- Check that your graphics drivers are up to date
Disabling Temporarily
If the shader causes discomfort or you need to see clearly for building, return to Video Settings > Shaders and select "None." You can reactivate it anytime. The shader works best for gameplay focused on exploration and atmosphere rather than precise construction work.
