Adjust Heat Haze Effects in Hot Biomes
Locate Heat Haze Settings
Open the shader configuration menu and find the Heat Haze or Distortion section. This effect creates a shimmering, wavy appearance in hot environments.
Visit Heat-Affected Areas
Travel to biomes and dimensions where heat haze activates:
- The Nether: Most intense heat haze effect
- Desert biomes: Moderate wavy distortion
- Badlands: Subtle shimmer effect
- Near lava sources: Heat haze concentrates around flowing lava
Observe the Effect
Look at distant blocks and the horizon. You should see a subtle wavering or ripple effect, similar to heat rising from hot pavement. The effect is most noticeable when looking across long distances.
Fine-Tune Intensity
Return to shader settings and adjust the Heat Haze Strength slider:
- Lower values: Subtle, realistic shimmer
- Higher values: More dramatic, stylized distortion
Disable if Unwanted
If heat haze causes discomfort or performance issues, toggle it off entirely. The feature is optional and doesn't affect gameplay mechanics.
