### About
Complementary Shaders is a shader pack for Minecraft Java Edition with exceptional attention to detail, high standards of quality, and top tier optimisation. It offers a ton of high quality effects, two default visual style choices, custom effects for almost every block in the game, profiles ranging from Potato to Ultra and it’s designed to never be obstructive during gameplay. It started as an edit of BSL Shaders in 2018, and it received countless major updates including a complete rewrite to meet the standards of our community. Complementary Shaders is dedicated to be shaped by user feedback over anything else, and it still receives regular updates to this day.
“Unbound” is one of the two default styles Complementary Shaders r5 comes with. It is the less restricted style of Complementary that aims for a more realistic image. [**Learn more about the two styles here.**](https://www.complementary.dev/shaders/#style-section)
### Choose Your Style
Complementary Shaders comes with two distinct visual style options. The only difference between these two styles is the default settings. The Unbound style is designed for people looking for a more realistic experience, while the Reimagined style is made to reimagine Minecraft while preserving its unique visual elements. Please note that you can still customize everything after you download either style. You can switch to blocky clouds on the Unbound style, or use realistic water on the Reimagined style. All settings are located in Shader Options.

**CoffeeShaders is a visual edit of [GlacierShaders](https://modrinth.com/shader/glacier-shaders), made for players who enjoy its clean, lightweight style but want a warmer touch. It keeps almost the same visuals as GlacierShaders while introducing a new water color and a few visual tweaks to create a smoother, more cozy aesthetic.**
### Features
**CoffeeShaders is optimized for performance just like GlacierShaders, with minimal post-processing and no heavy visual effects. The main difference lies in the visual tone — the water has a rich coffee-colored tint, and certain effects are adjusted to make the environment feel warmer and softer without reducing FPS.**
### BUGS
**Found a bug? You can report it by creating a ticket under the bug category in our Discord server. Your feedback helps us improve CoffeeShaders and fix issues faster. Every report means a lot to us and truly makes our day better!**
**CoffeeShaders is based on GlacierShaders and is published under the same licensing terms. All visual edits and tweaks are original and follow the permissions and distribution rules of the original GlacierShaders project.**
Cinematic Color Correction
This shader gives the game a more cinematic look by changing the color and adding a Bloom effect.
The only thing in this shader that impacts the performance is Bloom.
With Bloom disabled, this shader probably runs on anything!
Butter Shaders is a lightweight Minecraft shaderpack designed to bring a warm, soft, and realistic atmosphere to your world.

Bliss Shaders
# About The Shader
_**Bliss is a big edit of Chocapic13’s V9.0 – V9.1; [The original shaders can be found here!](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/customization/chocapic13-shaders)**_
I liked chocapic13’s shaders, but i could not be satisfied. I decided i wanted to try and bring my own visual goals out in the shader while i learn how to develop shaders. So here i am, with a pretty sizeable edit that stands to be quite different from the original shader!
# Requirements
– The mod [“Iris”](https://www.irisshaders.dev/download). The mod [“Optifine”](https://optifine.net/downloads) might work as well.
– Designed for Minecraft versions 1.17.0+
– AMD, Intel, and NVidia graphics are supported
– Apple devices have limited support due to OpenGL version restrictions. [Please refer to this thread for more info](https://github.com/X0nk/Bliss-Shader/issues/181)
