Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on N87 Shaders after installing it?
Open your Video Settings, go to Shaders, and select N87 from the list. The shader will apply immediately to your world.
Why do my caves look too dark even with torches?
N87 uses realistic light bounce, so torchlight doesn't spread as far as vanilla. Try placing more torches or use the Lighting Intensity guide to brighten underground areas without disabling the shader.
Can I use N87 Shaders with other mods?
N87 works with most mods, but mods that heavily modify lighting or add custom blocks may cause visual conflicts. Test your mod combination in a small world first.
My FPS dropped a lot after enabling N87. What can I do?
Check the Performance Optimization guide for settings like shadow distance and render distance adjustments. Lowering these values will improve FPS while keeping the shader active.
