ELASION Shaders FAQ

10 questions players actually ask, answered.

How do I turn on ELASION Shaders in game?
Open your pause menu, go to Options, then Video Settings, and open the Shader Packs menu provided by Oculus. Select ELASION Shaders from the list and click Apply to load the lighting changes.
Does ELASION Shaders work with OptiFine or iris?
ELASION Shaders is built specifically for the Oculus shader mod. Running it on other shader loaders can cause broken visuals or prevent the pack from loading properly.
Why is there no shader packs button in my video settings?
Shader packs cannot load on their own without a shader mod enabled. Make sure you have Oculus properly running on your client so the Shader Packs menu appears in your Video Settings.
How do I customize the alpha lighting settings?
Go to your Shader Packs menu in Video Settings, select ELASION Shaders, and click the Shader Pack Settings button. From there, you can adjust the built-in visual and lighting preferences to match your liking.
Will ELASION Shaders lag a potato pc?
No, the pack is lightweight and designed specifically to keep frame rates fast on weak computers and low-end setups. If you still notice stutters, you can tweak the built-in shader settings or lower your render distance.
Why am I seeing weird visual bugs with this shader?
ELASION Shaders is an experimental pack, meaning occasional visual quirks can happen. First confirm you are running it through Oculus, then try toggling individual options in the shader settings menu to see which preference is causing the glitch.
How does ELASION Shaders look in newer biomes?
It applies the classic shading and nostalgic visual tone of early Minecraft Alpha while preserving a simple, vanilla-like style across all biomes. Modern blocks and areas still keep their recognizable vanilla feel under the classic lighting.
Do I need to put ELASION Shaders on my server?
No, shaders only change how lighting and visuals render on your own screen. You only need Oculus and ELASION Shaders on your own client to use it on any multiplayer server.
How do I get more fps with ELASION Shaders?
Even though it is already lightweight, you can open the shader pack's built-in settings menu to dial back extra visual preferences. Lowering your standard Minecraft render and simulation distances will also immediately smooth out performance on older hardware.
How do I reset ELASION Shaders back to default settings?
Open the Shader Packs menu through Oculus and open the settings screen for ELASION Shaders. Use the reset option inside the shader configuration menu to restore all lighting and visual tweaks back to their original Alpha-style defaults.
