Frequently asked questions

How do I enable the shader after installing it?
Open Options > Video Settings > Shaders, then locate and select VanillaRTXLite Shaders from your shader folder. Click Apply and the effects will load immediately in your world.
Why do my shadows look blocky or pixelated?
Shadow quality is often set to a lower resolution by default for performance. Open the shader options (usually accessible via a settings button in the Video Settings menu) and increase the shadow map resolution to smooth them out.
Can I use this with resource packs?
Yes, VanillaRTXLite Shaders works with most resource packs, especially those designed to stay faithful to vanilla textures. Some heavily modified packs may cause visual conflicts, so test compatibility before committing to a pack.
My FPS dropped a lot after installing this. How do I fix it?
Reduce shadow quality, lower render distance, or disable advanced lighting features in the shader settings. You can also lower your overall graphics settings in Video Settings to find a balance between visuals and performance.
