Verlixia


### DISCLAIMER!
Most of the Verlixia code is originally by Capt Tatsu in his [BSL Shaders](https://modrinth.com/shader/bsl-shaders). Verlixia is a “fork” of BSL Shaders v8.3 with permission by Capt Tatsu himself. Credits to Capt Tatsu! Verlixia is also currently in beta and slightly unfinished.

## Verlixia!
**Verlixia** is a shaderpack based on BSL that adds/changes:
– Color toning: Warmer colors during the day but cooler colors during night time and storms!
– Better darkness: Nights and caves are more darker for realism, including storms.
– Wet reflections: Water is now reflective by default and now after it rains, blocks will have a shiny wet reflection!
– Multi-colored block lighting: Soul torches and redstone objects have their own colored glow, but is pretty subtle!
– Heat haze: A wavy effect when you are looking at things like lava, fire, torches or in a desert, savanna or the Nether!
– Wind gust system: Waving is now randomized and can be a little wavy up to wavy based off wind gust.
– New atmospherics: The End has an endless purple aurora in the sky and way more purple toned than BSL, the Moon has a more bluish tint than BSL too.
– Darkness effect rework, including desaturtion, film grain boost and a slight chromatic aberration effect, for horror effect.

### Platforms, versions and hardware requirements
Verlixia can be ran with the Iris mod with Sodium and/or OptiFine, works best on Iris due to its modern architecture and Sodium integration. Verlixia can work also on many versions and subversions like BSL, this includes:

– 1.21.x (has been tested)
– 1.20.x
– 1.19.x
– 1.18.x
– 1.17.x
– 1.16.x
– 1.15.x
– 1.14.x
– 1.13.x
– 1.12.x
– 1.11.x
– 1.10.x
– 1.9.x
– 1.8.x

Verlixia is pretty demanding, more demanding than BSL so you will need these for your PC for **High** experiences on **1440p**:

| Tier | Recommended GPUs | Target Performance |
| :— | :— | :— |
| **Minimum** | RTX 1660 Super / RX 5600 XT / Arc A380 | 40+ FPS |
| **Recommended** | RTX 5070 Ti / RX 9070 XT | 144+ FPS |
| **Best Performance** | RTX 5090 | 240+ FPS |

| Tier | Recommended CPUs | Target Performance |
| :— | :— | :— |
| **Minimum** | Ryzen 5 3600 / i3-12100 | 30+ FPS |
| **Recommended** | Ryzen 7 7700X / i9-12700K | 144+ FPS |
| **Best Performance** | Ryzen 9 9950X3D / i9-14900KS | 240+ FPS |

However these are just estimates and may be inaccurate and depends on how powerful your CPU is. These estimates only count 1440p and High, 1080p + Medium has lower requirements and 4K + Ultra has way higher requirements. This also depends on how much RAM you have, 32 GB is recommended / give Minecraft 6GB.

### License & testing info
Verlixia is created by KaiakK, original BSL shaders by Capt Tatsu. This plugin was tested on a RTX 4060, 1440p, 16GB of RAM! First shader pack by me ever, probably the last too.

VECTOR

# VECTOR
*Minecraft Retro-computing*

Did you own an IBM PC? Or maybe you had an Apple II? This is how Minecraft might have looked on it.
In the same vein as [Epoch](https://modrinth.com/shader/epoch), VECTOR allows you to pretend like it’s the 1980s.

### Features
– Line graphics
– CRT distortion
– Monochrome
– HUD (Iris only)


VanishWater – Realistic Water Vision Shader

VanishWater is a lightweight Minecraft shader that temporarily hides water blocks when you view them from the outside, giving you an unobstructed view of oceans, lakes, and rivers. Once you enter the water, it returns to its normal appearance, preserving the natural underwater experience.
(Warning ⚠) Recommended for private servers, creative builds, and cinematic use.
