Frequently asked questions

How do I enable the shader pack after installing it?
Open Options > Video Settings > Shaders, then locate Ultra Realistic PBR Pack Shaders in your shaders folder and select it. The shaders will load on your next world load or when you press F3 + T to reload.
Why do some blocks look too shiny or reflective?
PBR surface reflections vary by block type—metals and smooth surfaces reflect more light than rough ones. If reflections feel too strong overall, check your shader settings for PBR intensity or surface roughness sliders and adjust them down.
The End dimension sky looks wrong. Where's the Earth model?
The Earth model should appear as a rotating sphere in the End sky by default. If you don't see it, verify the shader is fully loaded, check that dimension-specific sky settings are enabled in the shader options, and ensure you're not in a modded dimension that overrides the sky.
My indoor spaces are too dark even with torches. How do I fix this?
Light bounce and indirect lighting may need adjustment—open the shader settings and look for options related to ambient light, light bounce strength, or indirect lighting radius, then increase these values to brighten enclosed spaces.
