Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on NMS Normal Map Shaders in game?
Open your Video Settings, go to your Shaders menu, and select NMS Normal Map Shaders from the list. If you do not have a Shaders button in your video settings, make sure you are launching the game with a shader loader like Iris or OptiFine active.
Why is everything in my world bright pink, blue, and green?
That is the intended effect of the shader pack. It replaces standard textures and lighting with a technical normal map view, painting every surface a specific color based on the direction and angle it is facing.
How can I quickly switch back to normal Minecraft graphics?
You can turn the normal map view off at any time by going back into your Shaders menu and selecting Off or Internal. If your shader loader supports keybinds, you can bind the Toggle Shaders hotkey in your controls menu to switch the view instantly while playing.
Will this shader pack lag my old laptop?
No, NMS Normal Map Shaders is very lightweight and runs fast on older computers and low-end PCs. Because it skips heavy shadows, reflections, and complex lighting calculations, it performs much better than realistic shader packs.
