Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on FadedClouds Shaders?
FadedClouds Shaders runs through Iris or Oculus. Open Video Settings, go to the Shader Packs menu, select FadedClouds Shaders from the list and apply it. If the menu is missing, Iris or Oculus is not loaded.
Do I need Iris or Oculus to use this shader pack?
Yes. FadedClouds Shaders depends on Iris or Oculus to load and to apply its post-processing effects. Without one of them, Minecraft has no way to run the shader pack.
What does FadedClouds Shaders actually change?
The main change is to the default sky clouds. Instead of cutting off with a hard edge, they fade out smoothly toward the horizon. It also adds a few lightweight post-processing tweaks while keeping vanilla lighting and the familiar look of the game.
Why can't I see any clouds fading after enabling the shader?
The fade only affects the standard Minecraft clouds, so check that clouds aren't turned off in your Video Settings. Also confirm FadedClouds Shaders is the active pack in the Shader Packs menu. Then look toward the horizon, where the fade is most noticeable.
