Frequently asked questions

How do I enable the shader after installing it?
Open your video settings in-game, navigate to Shaders, and select Luminous Balanced Lighting from the list. The shader will apply immediately; you may need to restart your world for all effects to load properly.
Why is my frame rate still dropping even though this is supposed to be lightweight?
Check your shader settings menu for options like shadow distance and bloom intensity—lowering these will improve performance. Also verify your render distance and other graphics settings aren't set too high, as the shader amplifies the impact of those choices.
The shadows look too dark or too light. How do I fix this?
Open the shader options menu (usually accessible from video settings) and adjust the shadow intensity or brightness slider to match your preference. You can also tweak the bloom strength if you want light sources to glow more or less.
Can I use this shader with other mods?
Yes, Luminous Balanced Lighting works with most mods, but mods that heavily alter lighting or add custom light sources may cause conflicts or visual glitches. Test your mod combination in a small world first to check for compatibility issues.
