Chocapic13' Shaders

High quality/performance ratio shaderpack scaling to a large range of hardware configurations.

Unlike many lightweight shaderpacks, this one tries to maintain a decent quality level even at the lowest possible preset. The high-end presets are able to run at around 80-100 fps, and over 120 on a simple scene on a mid range gpu like the RX 570 or the GTX 1060 while offering high quality visuals.

Features (V9)

  • Dynamic Time of Day cycle
  • Physically plausible High Dynamic Range lighting system
  • Shadows with variable penumbra size
  • Variable density volumetric fog with shadows
  • Volumetric clouds
  • Water shader with water fog, reflections, caustics and refractions
  • Screen Space Global Illumination (SSGI)
  • High quality Temporal Anti-aliasing and upscaling (TAA / TAAU)
  • Custom Nether and End with biome support
  • Bloom
  • Depth of Field
  • Contrast-adaptative sharpening filter
  • Wavy plants
  • ... and much more !

Installation

Shaders should work as long as Optifine is updated indepently of the MC version.

  • Download and install Optifine
  • Download the shaderpack
  • Launch Minecraft
  • Open Options, Video Settings, Shaders, Shaderpack Folder
  • Put the shaderpacks (presets into zipped file) inside .minecraft\shaderpacks
  • Select the shader in the shader list

Requirements and known issues

  • Use the latest available graphic driver
  • Requires at least 500 pixels on each axis on the target resolution to work properly
  • Leave Shadow quality to 1.00x in optifine menu, and use the shader options to change shadow resolution.
  • Set sky to On in optifine settings
  • Set "Old lighting" to Off or Default
  • Ressourcepack custom sky is usually not supported - Mods may work or not work and I won't work on mod compatibility
  • Connected overlay texture have issues when under water

About the different versions

  • V6 should run on every minecraft version
  • V7, V8 and V9 requires at least Optifine for 1.12
  • There is no in-game options in order to switch between presets because each preset has specific optimizations that can't be enabled with the current shader option API Presets

Donations:

  • If you want to support me making this shader (and can afford it) you can do a small donation which is always highly appreciated ! :)
  • There's no super fancy "premium only" raytraced stuff planned for the future because i want this shader to be available to everyone, you don't earn anything by donating
