Silva Pro Shaders FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn on Silva Pro Shaders after installing it?
Open your Video Settings in-game, go to Shaders, and select Silva Pro from the list. The shader will apply immediately to your world.
Why is my game so dark at night even with Silva Pro?
Silva Pro keeps nighttime intentionally dim for atmosphere, but you can brighten it using the brightness slider in your Video Settings or by adjusting the shader's contrast option.
Can I use Silva Pro Shaders with other mods?
Yes, Silva Pro works with most mods, but mods that heavily alter lighting or add custom blocks may cause visual conflicts; test your setup to confirm compatibility.
My frames dropped a lot after installing Silva Pro. What should I do?
Try lowering your render distance, disabling shadow quality in the shader settings, or reducing other graphics options like clouds and particles before assuming the shader is the problem.
Does Silva Pro work on servers or only single-player?
Shaders only affect your client-side rendering, so they work on servers, multiplayer worlds, and single-player equally well.
Why do my caves look too bright or too dark compared to the surface?
Caves use the same lighting adjustments as the rest of your world; use the brightness and contrast settings to find a balance that works for both underground and surface exploration.
Can I adjust how much water and sky effects show up?
Silva Pro's water and sky effects are built into the shader and cannot be toggled individually, but adjusting overall brightness and contrast will affect how prominent they appear.
Will Silva Pro Shaders work on my low-end laptop?
Silva Pro is designed for low-end and mid-range systems, but performance depends on your specific hardware; start with default settings and lower render distance if needed.
Why do leaves and grass look weird or too animated?
Silva Pro adds subtle waving animations to vegetation; if they look too extreme, check that your shader is fully updated and that no conflicting mods are altering plant rendering.
How do I uninstall Silva Pro Shaders?
Go to Video Settings > Shaders and select "None" to disable the shader; the mod files remain installed but will not affect your game.
