Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on God Rays after installing the shader?
Open the shader settings menu (usually accessed through your video settings or a dedicated shader menu), find the God Rays option, and toggle it on. You can then adjust the intensity slider to control how bright and visible the sunbeams appear.
Why are my caves still bright even with this shader installed?
Make sure the Dark Caves feature is enabled in the shader settings. If caves remain bright, check that you don't have other mods or settings overriding ambient light, and verify that your world doesn't have a high ambient light value set in the world options.
Can I use this shader on a laptop with Intel HD graphics?
Yes—this shader is specifically designed to run smoothly on Intel HD integrated graphics, maintaining 60–100 FPS even on budget hardware. If you experience frame drops, try lowering the God Rays intensity or disabling other visual enhancements.
What should I do if I see weird lighting glitches or dark patches?
First, try toggling the shader off and on again. If artifacts persist, lower the God Rays intensity, disable any conflicting visual mods, and make sure your graphics drivers are up to date. Restarting the game often resolves temporary lighting errors.
