Frequently asked questions

How do I install NOISE Shaders?
Install Iris Shaders first (a shader loader), then place the NOISE shader pack file into your shaderpacks folder. Launch Minecraft, open Options > Video Settings > Shaders, and select NOISE from the list.
Why does my water look flat or not reflective?
Check that your graphics card supports shader reflections and that you haven't disabled water reflections in the shader options. Open Shaders > Shader Options and look for water or reflection settings, then enable them and adjust clarity to your preference.
Can I use NOISE Shaders on a server?
No, shaders only work on the client side in single-player or when connecting to servers. Your server doesn't need to have NOISE installed—it runs locally on your computer.
My game is running slowly with NOISE. How do I speed it up?
Lower shadow distance and reflection quality in Shaders > Shader Options, reduce your render distance, or lower other video settings like clouds and particles. NOISE is demanding; older graphics cards may need significant adjustments.
