Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on Lucent Realms Shaders?
Shader packs run through a shader loader such as Iris or OptiFine. With the loader running, open Options > Video Settings > Shader Packs, select Lucent Realms Shaders and apply it. The world should reload with new lighting.
I put Lucent Realms in my mods folder and nothing changed, why?
Shader packs go in the shaderpacks folder, not the mods folder. Use the Open Shader Pack Folder button on the Shader Packs screen to find the right folder, move the pack there, then select it from that screen.
How can I tell if the shaders are actually working?
Look for soft shadows under trees, buildings and mobs, and for leaves and grass gently waving. You should also see a glow around torches and lanterns. If blocks look flat and plants are still, the pack isn't active.
Why can't I see the volumetric light beams?
The beams appear where light filters through tree canopies and cave openings, so you won't see them in open fields. Stand under a dense forest canopy or just inside a cave mouth on a bright day, and look toward the light.
