Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on FS Shaders after installing it?
Launch Minecraft, go to Options > Video Settings > Shaders, then locate and select FS Shaders from your shader pack list. Click Apply and the shaders will load on your next world or when you rejoin your current world.
Why is my game lagging after installing FS Shaders?
FS Shaders includes performance optimization settings in its config menu. Open the shader options (usually by pressing a hotkey in-game, often right-click or a dedicated key), then look for shadow distance, reflection quality, or render distance settings to lower them until your frame rate improves.
Can I use FS Shaders with OptiFine and Iris at the same time?
No—you should use either OptiFine or Iris, not both. FS Shaders is compatible with both, so choose whichever one you prefer and install the shader pack for that loader only.
The water doesn't look reflective—how do I fix this?
Open the FS Shaders config menu in-game and check that reflective water or water reflections are enabled. You may also need to adjust water clarity or reflection intensity settings to see the effect more clearly.
