Adjust Lighting and Shadow Intensity

Access Shader Settings

Open the shader options menu while in-game by pressing the designated key (usually accessed through your shader menu or video settings). Look for VerdantLight Lite in your active shaders list.

Fine-Tune Shadow Quality

Locate shadow-related sliders in the shader configuration. You can adjust:

  • Shadow softness: Controls how harsh or blended shadows appear on block surfaces
  • Shadow distance: Determines how far shadows render from your character
  • Lighting intensity: Brightens or darkens the overall path-traced lighting effect

Apply Changes

After adjusting values, the changes apply immediately in most cases. If you don't see updates, try moving to a different location or reloading your world. Start with small adjustments to shadow softness if you find the lighting too harsh or too washed out.

Performance Consideration

If your frame rate drops after increasing shadow quality, reduce shadow distance or lower the lighting intensity slightly. VerdantLight Lite is designed to be lightweight, so these settings should remain responsive even on older hardware.
