Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on colored lighting after installing the mod?
Lucidus Shaders activates automatically once installed—you'll see colored light from torches and lanterns right away. If you don't see the effect, check that shaders are enabled in your video settings and that the mod is loaded in your mods folder.
Why do my torches and lanterns not glow colored?
Make sure you're using actual light blocks like torches, lanterns, and soul lanterns—the shader only affects designated light sources. If those blocks still don't glow, verify the mod is properly installed and your graphics driver is up to date.
Can I adjust how bright the colored lighting is?
Yes, you can adjust lighting brightness and color intensity through the shader settings accessible in your video options menu. Look for shader-specific sliders to customize the glow strength to your preference.
Does this shader work on really old or weak computers?
Yes, Lucidus Shaders is specifically designed to run smoothly on low-end hardware and potato PCs with minimal performance impact. It uses simple lighting calculations instead of heavy post-processing effects.
