Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on Zombie Horror Shaders after installing it?
Load the shader pack through your shader loader (OptiFine or Iris) by opening the Shaders menu and selecting Zombie Horror from the list. Once activated, the washed-out colors and glowing eyes will apply immediately to your world.
Why aren't the zombie eyes glowing red?
Glowing eyes only appear in dark conditions—check that you're looking at mobs at night or in caves where there's low light. If it's still not working, verify the shader is actually loaded in your shader menu and that you're looking at zombies, creepers, or animals (not other mob types).
Can I use Zombie Horror Shaders with my resource pack?
Yes, Zombie Horror Shaders works alongside resource packs without requiring any extra downloads. The glowing eyes effect is built into the shader itself, so your resource pack won't interfere.
The shader makes everything too dark. How do I fix this?
Use the shader intensity adjustment settings to reduce the effect strength for your system—this will brighten the overall look while keeping the horror atmosphere. You can also disable the effect temporarily for specific activities like building or mining.
