Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on glowing ores after installing the shader?
Open your shader settings menu (usually accessible from Video Settings > Shaders) and look for an option labeled "Glowing Ores" or "Ore Glow" — toggle it on to make gemstone ores emit light in caves. You may need to restart your world or re-enter chunks for the effect to fully apply.
Why don't my ores glow even though I enabled the feature?
Make sure you're looking at gemstone ores (like diamonds, emeralds, or lapis) rather than common ores, as only these types receive the glow effect. If caves are still too dark, try adjusting the overall brightness slider in shader settings to make the glow more visible.
Can I adjust how bright the water reflections are?
Yes — most shader packs include a water or reflection intensity slider in the settings menu. Lower the value if reflections wash out your view, or increase it if water looks too flat and dull.
My FPS dropped after installing this shader. How do I fix it?
Try disabling or lowering shadow quality, reducing water reflection detail, or turning off the glowing ores effect temporarily to identify which feature impacts your performance most. You can also lower overall shader complexity in the settings menu.
