Activating DreadFrame Shaders in Video Settings

Accessing the Shader Menu

To enable DreadFrame Shaders, open the pause menu in Minecraft by pressing Escape and navigate through your video configuration:

1. Click Options, then select Video Settings.

2. Open the Shader Packs menu (available through shader loaders like Iris or OptiFine).

3. If you just placed the shader file into your game's shaderpacks directory, check the list to find DreadFrame.

Applying the Shader Pack

Once located in the menu, complete the setup to load the visual changes:

1. Click on DreadFrame in the list to select it.

2. Click Apply or Done to allow the game to reload its rendering pipeline.

3. Return to your active world to verify the effect.

Upon returning to gameplay, your regular world colors will be replaced with a high-contrast red and black palette, complete with harsh dry-brush outlines around terrain and a pulsing dark vignette along the borders of your screen.
