Frequently asked questions

How do I enable LumenLite Shaders after installing it?
Open your Video Settings in-game, navigate to Shaders, and select LumenLite Shaders from the list. The shaders will activate immediately, and you'll see the lighting changes take effect.
Why do caves still look too dark even with this shader?
Check your brightness slider in Video Settings—LumenLite brightens caves significantly, but your monitor's brightness or gamma settings may need adjustment. You can also visit the shader's configuration menu to fine-tune cave lighting if available.
Can I use LumenLite Shaders with other mods?
LumenLite Shaders is compatible with most mods, but mods that heavily alter lighting or add custom blocks may cause visual conflicts. Test your mod combination in a test world first to check for issues.
My frame rate dropped after installing LumenLite. How do I fix it?
LumenLite is optimized for budget hardware, but you can improve performance by lowering your render distance, disabling advanced water effects if available in settings, or reducing your resolution. Check your Video Settings for any shader-specific performance options.
