Velocity Glide Shaders FAQ
10 questions players actually ask, answered.
How do I turn on the shader after installing the mod?
Open your shader settings menu in-game (usually accessed through video settings or a dedicated mod menu) and select Velocity Glide from the available shader list. The effects will apply immediately to your world.
Why does my motion blur look too strong or make me dizzy?
Find the motion blur intensity slider in the shader settings and lower it to a level that feels comfortable for you. Even small reductions can make a big difference in how the blur feels during gameplay.
Can I use this shader with other mods that change lighting?
Velocity Glide works best as your primary lighting solution, so using it alongside other lighting mods may cause conflicts or visual overlap. Check mod compatibility guides or test in a small world first.
Does this shader work on servers or only single-player?
Shaders are client-side only, so they work on both single-player and multiplayer servers without affecting other players or requiring server installation.
My caves look too bright now—how do I dial back the colored lighting?
Look for lighting intensity or brightness adjustment options in the shader settings menu and reduce them until caves feel appropriately dark while still showing detail.
Will this shader tank my frame rate on a low-end PC?
Velocity Glide is optimized for budget hardware and should maintain smooth performance even on older laptops, though you may need to lower motion blur intensity or other effects if you experience drops.
Why do my glowing blocks look washed out instead of glowing?
Check that bloom effects are enabled in your shader settings, and adjust the bloom intensity slider to make the glow more visible around torches, lanterns, and bright blocks.
Does the motion blur affect my ability to aim or see clearly in combat?
Motion blur is designed to be subtle, but if it interferes with aiming, you can reduce the intensity in settings or disable it entirely while keeping other shader features active.
Can I customize which blocks cast colored light?
Velocity Glide applies colored lighting automatically to glowing blocks like torches and lanterns based on built-in settings; extensive per-block customization may not be available, but intensity adjustments can help fine-tune the overall effect.
Why do shadows look different or softer than before?
Velocity Glide softens shadows as part of its visual style to maintain clarity and reduce harsh contrasts; this is intentional for the shader's aesthetic, though you can adjust shadow-related settings if available in the menu.
