Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the shader after installing it?
Open your shader loader (Iris or OptiFine), navigate to the shaders folder, find Dreadlight Horror Atmosphere in the list, and click it to activate. You'll see the horror effects apply immediately to your world.
The fog is so thick I can't see anything. How do I fix this?
Open the shader settings menu in-game (usually accessible from the pause menu or shader options), find the fog density slider, and reduce it to a level where you can still see threats approaching but maintain the spooky atmosphere.
Can I use this shader with my texture pack?
Yes, Dreadlight Horror Atmosphere works alongside most texture packs. If you notice visual conflicts, try adjusting the film grain or shadow settings in the shader menu to find a balance that works with your specific texture pack.
My game is lagging with this shader. What can I do?
Disable or reduce film grain and light flicker effects first, as these are performance-heavy. You can also lower shadow depth or fog density in the shader settings, or reduce your render distance to improve frame rates.
