Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on Slight Shaders after installing it?
Open your Video Settings in-game, find the Shaders option, and select Slight Shaders from the list. The shader will activate immediately and you'll see the changes to shadows, water, and sky colors.
Why does my game lag after enabling Slight Shaders?
Shaders are performance-intensive; try lowering your render distance, disabling shadow quality in the shader settings, or turning off water wave animations. Check the Optimize Performance on Lower-End Hardware guide for more detailed steps.
Can I use Slight Shaders with other mods?
Yes, Slight Shaders is compatible with most mods, but mods that heavily modify rendering or add custom blocks may cause visual conflicts. Test your mod combination in a test world first.
How do I make shadows darker or lighter?
Open the shader settings from the Video Settings menu and adjust the Shadow Intensity slider to your preference. You can also change shadow quality to balance visual detail with performance.
