Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the shader after installing it?
Open the Options menu, go to Video Settings, then look for Shader Options or Shaders. Select Karma Cartoon Style Shaders from the list to activate it. You should see the cartoon effect take effect immediately in your world.
Can I adjust how thick the ink outlines are?
Yes, open Shader Settings and find the Ink Outline Thickness option. You can increase or decrease the line weight, or disable outlines entirely if you prefer just the cel-shaded lighting without the drawn effect.
What does light banding do and how many levels are there?
Light banding converts smooth shadows into distinct flat bands of color, making the cartoon effect more pronounced. You can choose between two, three, or four banding levels depending on how stylized you want your lighting to look.
Why do my hands and items still look normal?
The shader intentionally keeps your held items and hands unaffected by ink outlines so they remain clear and readable during gameplay. This is by design to maintain usability while the world around you stays cartoonified.
