Show Off Your Builds in Warm Daylight and Clear Water

Luxor Low End Shaders brightens open landscapes with warm daytime sunlight. It also gives water a clear tint and gentle reflections. Because it keeps vanilla block textures intact, your builds look like themselves, just better lit.

Set up the scene

1. Pick the right time of day. Daytime is when the warm sunlight is strongest. If cheats are enabled, /time set day gets you there quickly.

2. Stop the clock so the light doesn't shift while you frame the shot. Use /gamerule doDaylightCycle false, then set it back to true when you're done.

3. Clear the weather with /weather clear. Rain and storms dull the sunlight.

4. Use water. Lakes, moats, ponds and coastlines show off the pack's clear water and reflections. Position your camera so the water sits in the foreground of your build.

Take the screenshot

1. Press F1 to hide the HUD and hand.

2. Fine-tune your angle. A slightly low view across water often shows reflections best.

3. Press F2 to save a screenshot. It goes into the screenshots folder in your game directory.

4. Press F1 again to bring the HUD back.

For a fair before-and-after comparison, take one shot with the shader on. Then turn it off in Video Settings > Shader Packs and take the same shot again from the same spot.
