Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on PotatoGlow Shaders after installing it?
Open your Video Settings in-game, find the Shaders option, and select PotatoGlow Shaders from the list. The shader will activate immediately and you'll see colored lighting and reflections take effect.
Why do my torches and light sources look dim or not colorful enough?
Check your Colored Lighting Intensity setting in the shader options—it may be set too low. Increase this value to make torches, lanterns, and other light sources cast more vibrant colored light onto surrounding blocks.
Can I use PotatoGlow Shaders with other mods?
Yes, PotatoGlow Shaders is compatible with most mods that don't conflict with rendering. Mods that add custom blocks or items will display normally, though custom light sources may not cast colored light unless specifically supported.
My frame rate dropped after enabling shaders. How do I fix it?
Try disabling or reducing water reflections in the shader settings, lowering shadow quality, or reducing render distance. PotatoGlow is designed for low-end hardware, but these adjustments will help older computers maintain playable frame rates.
