Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on Hola Blocks Shaders after installing it?

Open your Video Settings in-game, go to Shaders, and select Hola Blocks Shaders from the list. Apply the changes and the shader will activate immediately on your world.

Why does my game lag when I use this shader?

Shaders are performance-intensive; try lowering your render distance, disabling advanced lighting options in the shader settings, or reducing your overall graphics quality. Check the performance optimization guide for your specific computer type.

Can I use Hola Blocks Shaders with other mods?

Yes, it works with most mods, but incompatibilities can occur with mods that heavily modify lighting or block rendering. Test your mod combination in a new world first to check for visual glitches.

Does this shader work in the Nether and End?

Yes, Hola Blocks Shaders applies its lighting effects throughout all dimensions, though the medieval aesthetic works best in the Overworld with traditional building blocks.

How do I make caves brighter to see ores better?

The shader automatically enhances cave lighting, but you can increase visibility further by adjusting the brightness or ambient lighting sliders in the shader options menu.

Why do my indoor spaces look too dark or washed out?

Place torches and light sources strategically to work with the shader's soft lighting system; the shader responds to in-game light blocks rather than overriding them. Refer to the indoor lighting guide for placement tips.

Can I disable the shader for specific biomes or blocks?

No, Hola Blocks Shaders applies globally to your entire world, but you can adjust overall intensity through shader settings to find a balance you prefer.

Does this shader affect my FPS in multiplayer servers?

Yes, shaders impact performance the same way in multiplayer as single-player; your FPS depends on your computer, not the server. Lower-end machines may need to reduce shader intensity or render distance.

How do I make wood and stone textures look more detailed?

The shader automatically adds depth to these materials, but pairing it with a higher-resolution texture pack will enhance the effect even further. See the material details guide for best results.

What should I do if the shader makes everything look too dark?

Adjust the brightness and gamma settings in both your Video Settings and the shader options menu; you can also increase ambient light values to brighten shadows without losing the medieval mood.
