Shader development is hard and takes a lot of time. If you enjoy my shaders, please consider supporting my work!

# Ebin Resurrected
Ebin Resurrected is a vibrant and performant Minecraft shaderpack.

[Ebin](https://github.com/BruceKnowsHow/Ebin-Shaders) began with the goal of being fast, beautiful, configurable, feature-rich, and having a base of well-written code. It was developed by [BruceKnowsHow](https://github.com/BruceKnowsHow) from 2016-2020. [jbritain](https://github.com/jbritain) resumed development of the shader in 2024 under the name ‘Ebin Resurrected’. This is a fork of Ebin which brings compatibility with modern versions of Minecraft, and significantly improves upon aspects of the shader, such as PBR.

## Community
If you would like to discuss Ebin Resurrected, or other Minecraft shaderpacks, join my [Discord server](https://discord.gg/b9SHNcvs6c). Alternatively, in the [shaderLABS](https://discord.gg/RpzWN9S) discord, you can head over to `#ebin-resurrected-jbritain`.

## Features
– Multicoloured Blocklight
– Sunlight Shadows / Shading
– PCSS ‘Variable Penumbra’ Shadows with transparency.
– Bloom / Glow
– Procedural 2D/3D Clouds
– Procedural Water Waves
– Deferred Shading Pipeline – Everything is correctly shaded, even behind semi-transparent blocks
– Terrain Deformation – “Animal Crossing” and “Acid” deformations
### LabPBR Compliant
– Rough Screen Space Reflections – accurate specular reflections on all blocks.
– Normal Mapped Lighting.
– Terrain Parallax (POM).
– Material Ambient Occlusion.
– Hardcoded Metal Support.
– Porosity – materials look ‘wet’ in the rain.

## Planned Features
– Distant Horizons support
– End skybox

## Compatibility
### Minecraft
– Optifine and Iris are both supported, however some features only work on Iris. Older Optifine or Iris versions may have issues, as the shader is developed on the latest versions of either.
– Minecraft 1.17.1 is the earliest tested version. The shader may work on older versions but this is not guaranteed.
### Hardware
– OpenGL 4 compatible hardware is required. This boils down to Nvidia GeForce 400, AMD Radeon HD 5000, Intel HD 3rd gen **or later**. Any modern device should work fine.
– The Raspberry Pi is not supported as it does not support OpenGL 4.
– Intel GPUs are untested and you may encounter issues. If you do encounter issues, please report them, as Intel is intended to be supported.
### Operating System
– MacOS is **NOT SUPPORTED**.

## If you run into problems
Having problems? Join my [Discord Server](https://discord.gg/b9SHNcvs6c) and create a thread in `#support`. Alternatively, if you are experiencing a problem with Ebin you consider to be a bug, create a new [issue](https://github.com/jbritain/Ebin-Shaders-Resurrected/issues). Please read the issue guidelines before creating one and make sure somebody else hasn’t raised the same issue already. **You are likely to get a faster response on Discord**.
