Locate Color Temperature Controls

Open the shader settings menu and search for options labeled color temperature, warmth, saturation, or daylight tone. This shader applies a gentle fantasy filter to sunlit areas by default, but you can enhance it further.

Increase Warmth Values

Raise the warmth or color temperature slider to add more golden or orange tones to daylight. This makes grass, sand, and wood blocks feel more inviting and fantasy-like. Increase saturation slightly if you want colors to pop more without looking unnatural.

Balance with Shadows

Warmer sunlight creates stronger contrast with shadows. If shadows become too dark or blue-tinted, adjust the shadow color or ambient light to complement your warmth settings. The goal is a cohesive look where lit and shadowed areas feel intentional rather than jarring.

Preview Different Times of Day

Test your settings at different times—sunrise, noon, and sunset all interact differently with color adjustments. This helps you find settings that look good across the full day cycle.
