Get Better Underwater Visibility
Understand Water Clarity Features
Pristine Clear Lighting improves water transparency by default, making it easier to spot underwater blocks, ores, and structures. This is one of the shader's core features.
Adjust Water Settings
In shader options, look for water-specific controls:
- Water transparency slider: Increase to see deeper underwater
- Caustic effects: Toggle wave patterns on water surface for visual depth without sacrificing clarity
- Underwater fog distance: Extend how far you can see through water
Combine with Brightness Adjustments
If underwater areas still feel dim, increase overall brightness or look for an "underwater lighting" option. The shader balances realism with visibility, so you should see blocks clearly without the water looking unrealistic.
Test in Different Water Types
Visit oceans, rivers, and deep lakes to see how settings perform. Pristine Clear Lighting maintains consistent clarity across all water biomes.
