Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on Terror VHS Shaders?
Open your Shader settings in the Video menu, find Terror VHS in the shader list, and select it. The effect applies immediately to your world.
Can I make the VHS effect stronger or weaker?
Yes, most shader packs including Terror VHS have intensity or strength sliders in the shader options menu. Adjust these to dial the glitch and color distortion up or down to your preference.
Does Terror VHS work in bright daylight or only in caves?
It works everywhere—the shader recolors and distorts all lighting, so even sunny days look like they're being recorded on an old broken camera. The effect is most noticeable in dark areas.
Why is my game lagging when I use Terror VHS?
Shaders are GPU-intensive; try lowering your render distance, disabling advanced shader features in the options, or reducing your resolution. You can also check if other mods or resource packs are running simultaneously and causing conflicts.
