Frequently asked questions

How do I enable Focal Shaders after installing it?
Open your Video Settings in-game, navigate to Shaders, and select Focal from the list. Click Apply and the shaders will load immediately.
Why do my shadows look blocky or pixelated?
Shadow quality is set to a lower level by default for performance. Open the shader options menu (usually by pressing a hotkey in-game or through Video Settings) and increase the shadow resolution slider to improve clarity.
Can I use Focal Shaders with other mods?
Focal works with most mods, but mods that heavily modify lighting, water rendering, or add custom blocks may cause visual conflicts. Test compatibility by loading your mod list with Focal enabled.
How do I make water reflections look better?
In the shader options, look for reflection or water quality settings and increase them. Higher reflection settings will show more detail but use more GPU power, so adjust based on your frame rate.
