Access Shader Settings

Open the Shader Options menu by pressing Shift + O while in-game (or through Video Settings > Shaders > Shader Options depending on your loader). This opens the configuration panel for Halcyon Shaders.

Customize Lighting and Color Tone

Look for sliders controlling:

  • Saturation/Color Intensity – increase to make golden sunset tones more vivid, decrease for subtler lighting
  • Brightness – adjust overall scene luminosity without losing the fantasy aesthetic
  • Warmth – control how much orange and gold tint affects your world

Fine-Tune Water and Sky

Separate controls let you adjust cloud softness and water clarity independently. Reduce water blur if you want sharper reflections, or increase it for a dreamier effect.

Apply and Test

Changes apply in real-time. Travel to different biomes and times of day to see how your adjustments look across varied lighting conditions. Sunset and sunrise hours show the shader's warmth most dramatically.
