⚠️ THIS PACK IS NO LONGER ACTIVELY DEVELOPED ⚠️
Any bugs you find will not be fixed, sorry!
Shader development is hard and takes a lot of time. If you enjoy my shaders, please consider supporting my work!
Visual Vibrance
Visual Vibrance is an attempt at recreating the upcoming "Vibrant Visuals" feature which is currently only available on the Bedrock edition of Minecraft.
Visual Vibrance is an alpha and since it was forked from my other pack, Glimmer in a relatively short period of time, there may be bugs. You can report these to me in my Discord server or #jbritains-shaderpacks in the shaderLABS Discord Server.
To-do
These are some things I still need to add
- Integrated water normal maps
- Caustics
- Volumetric fog and water
Compatibility
- OpenGL 4.3+ - macOS is not supported, nor is the Raspberry Pi. Most modern GPUs (integrated or dedicated) should work fine.
- Iris 1.7+, OptiFine is not supported.
The source code for this pack is available on GitHub. If you are interested in contributing or assisting in the development of this shaderpack, don't hesitate to make a pull request, as I have only some interest in maintaining this pack, and it was mainly made just to see if I could recreate the look.
