Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the shader after installing it?
Open your Video Settings, go to Shaders, and select Heliox Shaders from the list. The shader will activate immediately and you'll see colored lighting and shadows appear in your world.
Why do my shadows look broken or have weird lines in them?
Shadow artifacts often happen when your render distance is too high or your graphics card can't keep up. Try lowering render distance, disabling shadow detail in the shader options, or checking that your GPU drivers are up to date.
Can I use Heliox Shaders with mods that add new blocks?
Yes, Heliox Shaders works with most block-adding mods, but custom blocks may not receive colored lighting the same way vanilla blocks do. Compatibility depends on how the mod is coded, so test it in your world first.
The water reflections are making my game lag. How do I fix this?
Water reflections are performance-heavy; try lowering the reflection quality in the shader settings or reducing your render distance. You can also disable reflections entirely if performance is critical.
