Frequently asked questions

How do I enable LoShades Shaders after installing it?
Launch Minecraft, go to Options > Video Settings > Shaders, then select LoShades Shaders from the list and apply. The shader will activate immediately and you should see the fog and post-processing effects take effect.
Why is my game still running slow even with LoShades?
Check that you're not running other heavy mods or resource packs alongside the shader. If performance is still low, reduce your render distance or lower other video settings like clouds and particles, as LoShades is optimized but still depends on your base game settings.
Can I use LoShades with other shader packs?
No, only one shader pack can be active at a time in Minecraft. You must disable LoShades Shaders before switching to another shader pack.
What's the difference between adjusting fog distance and fog density?
Fog distance controls how far you can see before the fog starts to obscure blocks, while density controls how thick the fog appears. Increasing distance lets you see farther, but increasing density makes the fog more opaque at any given distance.
