LitePerf Shaders FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I enable LitePerf Shaders after installing it?
Open Options > Video Settings > Shaders, then locate and select LitePerf Shaders from the list. Click Apply and the shaders will activate immediately in your world.
Will this shader pack work on my old laptop?
Yes, LitePerf Shaders is specifically designed for low-end hardware and laptops. If you experience lag, try switching to the lowest performance profile in the shader settings.
How do I switch between different shader profiles?
While in-game, press the Shader Options button (usually accessed via the shaders menu or a hotkey), then select your preferred profile from the available options. Changes apply instantly.
Why does my world look too dark with LitePerf Shaders on?
Check the brightness and lighting adjustment settings in Shader Options—you may need to increase the brightness slider or disable any shadow features that are darkening your world. Make sure your monitor brightness isn't set too low either.
Can I use LitePerf Shaders with other mods?
LitePerf Shaders works with most mods, but incompatibilities can occur with other shader packs or mods that heavily modify rendering. If you experience issues, try disabling conflicting mods one at a time to identify the problem.
Does this shader pack change how vanilla blocks look?
No, LitePerf Shaders preserves the original vanilla block textures and art style while only adjusting lighting, brightness, and sky appearance.
My frame rate dropped after installing LitePerf Shaders. What should I do?
Switch to a lower performance profile in Shader Options, reduce render distance, or lower other video settings like particles and clouds. If performance is still poor, your hardware may be below the minimum requirements.
Can I adjust individual lighting settings like shadows or reflections?
Yes, open Shader Options while in-game to access individual sliders for brightness, lighting, and other visual effects. Experiment with these settings to find a balance between visuals and performance.
Why do some blocks look different colors than before?
This is likely due to the shader's lighting adjustments affecting how colors are displayed. Adjust the brightness and lighting sliders in Shader Options to match your preferred appearance.
Does LitePerf Shaders work in multiplayer servers?
Yes, shaders are client-side and work on any multiplayer server. Other players won't see your shader effects, and the server won't be affected by your shader settings.
