Configuring Settings for Low-End Hardware

Adjusting In-Game Video Options

Ember Shaders is designed to run smoothly on basic computers and low-end hardware without requiring extra external tools or heavy setups. You can maintain high performance by balancing standard Minecraft video options alongside the shader.

1. Open Options and head into Video Settings.

2. Set your Render Distance and Simulation Distance to moderate levels that your computer comfortably supports.

3. Verify that your graphics preset is set to a stable balance for your machine, ensuring your framerate remains consistent during gameplay.

Testing Performance Across Biomes

Because Ember Shaders provides smooth visuals across every biome, you should test your frame rates in different environments.

1. Walk through dense biomes, such as forests or jungles, to confirm your system handles foliage without stutter.

2. Move between daytime and nighttime cycles to ensure the transition under the glowing sky lighting remains fluid.

3. If you experience drops on minimal hardware, slightly lower your vanilla render distance while keeping Ember Shaders active, preserving its soft bloom and clean lighting without straining your machine.
