Atmospheric Shaders – NEW LOGO

[](https://kcbhosting.com/aff/Gaboouu)

# Atmospheric Shaders

Atmospheric Shaders is a shader pack focused on sky rendering and lighting.
It is designed to work with SimpleClouds and keeps visuals close to vanilla while improving atmosphere behavior.

## What it changes

### Sky and lighting

The sky uses smoother gradients and better horizon blending.
Light diffusion and sky color transition more gradually across the day.

### SimpleClouds integration

Clouds react to time of day and lighting conditions.
They are visually blended into the sky instead of appearing as a separate layer.

### Weather awareness

Sky brightness and color shift based on weather and biome context.
Storms and clear weather produce different ambient tones.

### Visual style

Colors are kept balanced.
Bloom and post effects are limited to keep the image readable and stable.

### Day and night transitions

Dawn and dusk transitions are smoother with more natural color shifts.

### Performance

Effects are conservative and lightweight.
The pack is intended to remain stable and usable on a wide range of systems.

## Planned changes

Cloud visuals will be refined further.
Water and fog behavior will be improved.
Sky scattering and sun coloration will be adjusted.
Some visuals may later react to weather data such as storms or humidity.

***

## SimpleClouds compatibility notice

If you are using this with SimpleClouds, be aware that there are many incompatibilities.

Before going to the comments saying that this mod does nothing, read this.

Mods like Alexs Caves, Immersive Engineering, Distant Horizons and others break the fragile balance of the rendering pipeline.
This results in depth and scene composition issues.

I have been working on a fix for a long time but have not found a proper solution yet.

If you are comfortable with GLSL or Java and think you might have an idea, feel free to help.

Ascii like shader

# ASCII Minecraft Shader

Inspired by [Acerola’s video](https://youtu.be/gg40RWiaHRY?si=B6kJ5t36mAW3lpr7) on ASCII art rendering, this shader project aims to recreate the iconic Minecraft visual style using ASCII characters. By translating the game’s visuals into ASCII art, the shader produces a unique and nostalgic aesthetic.

## Features

– **ASCII Rendering**: Converts the Minecraft world into a grid of ASCII characters.
– **Bitmap Font Texture**: Utilizes a bitmap font texture to map characters onto the screen.
– **Color and Black & White Modes**: Supports both colored and black & white rendering modes.
– **Edge Detection**: Integrates edge detection techniques for enhanced visual detail.

## Black & White Mode

In this mode, the shader renders the Minecraft world using only black and white ASCII characters, providing a classic and minimalist look.


## Color Mode

The color mode maintains the vibrant colors of Minecraft while still using ASCII characters to depict the scene, offering a modern twist on the retro aesthetic.


## Implementation Details

– **Fragment Shader**: The core of the shader is implemented in GLSL, where each pixel is mapped to an ASCII character based on its brightness or color value.
– **Bitmap Font Texture**: A 128×128 texture is used to store the bitmap font, with each character occupying an 8×8 pixel block.
– **Edge Detection**: Combines a Difference of Gaussians filter with a thresholded Sobel edge detection filter to enhance the details and edges of the scene before converting to ASCII.

Arc

A shader for Iris & Optifine that aims to providing realistic visuals with very minimal performance loss. Almost every effect/feature can be fine-tuned for the ideal balance between performance and quality. This project is still in beta but will be reaching initial release very soon!
 
### Features
– HDR
– Full PBR support
– Dynamic, direct, colored block lighting
– Volumetric fog/lighting
– Automatic exposure
– Screen-space reflections
– Water waves & refraction
– Supports distorted and cascaded shadow mapping.
– Depth-of-Field
– Bloom

Also contains special support for [PhysicsMod](https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/mc-mods/physics-mod) ocean waves & snow!

### Resource Packs
Supports LabPBR and OldPBR texture formats; The default setting for materials is “vanilla”, which hard-codes a limited set of PBR material values for the original Minecraft textures.

The recommended resource pack is [Patrix](https://www.patreon.com/patrix); when used make sure to set the shader setting for Material Format to “Patrix”, as it uses a special combination of OldPBR and LabPBR formats.

### Compatibility & Support
For best results use Iris 1.6 or later; however most features should work with Optifine or Oculus. If you have any suggestions or requests, you can reach out to me on the [ShaderLabs Discord](https://discord.gg/9CRwrfYU).

Amethyst Shaders

## What are Amethyst Shaders

[](https://curseforge.com/minecraft/shaders/amethyst-shaders)
[](https://curseforge.com/minecraft/shaders/amethyst-shaders)

Based on [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined)

Supports Distant Horizons AND PBR!

[WIP] Amethyst Shaders are a modified version on [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined), with quite a few tweaks to suit our visual style. **It is an Official Amethyst Group Project, made by gamerbenyt.**

**Amethyst Shaders** is in a **very Early Alpha state**, and has many bugs. If you encounter any bugs, please [**create a ticket**](https://github.com/gamerbenyt/amethyst-shaders/issues/new) on the **Amethyst Shaders Support Github**.

**Modifications:**
– **Daytime sky is more blue**
– **Clouds have a thick shiny outline to them (does not reflect world outline preferences)**
– **All blocks are more vibrant**
– **The Nether is more contrasty (eg. brighter blue in soul sand valleys)**
– **The End has brighter beams (the fog-type thing) and more stars**
– **The End has a brighter blue-ish-purple sky**
– **Rain adds visible light rays to light-emmiting blocks (eg. nether portal)**
– **Modified pixelated shadows, included in the default profile.**

Our Developers say that they prefer the Reimagined style, as that is what Amethyst Shaders is based on, but there is an option for the Unbound visual style, like normal Complementary.

### Notice:
Though Amethyst Shaders is based on [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined), it **WILL NOT** be getting updates when Reimagined does, and the only updates that will be brought over from [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined), is their updated license, though updates to the license are very rare. We include the Complementary License and follow it, but you must also agree to [**Our License**](https://github.com/gamerbenyt/Amethyst/blob/main/LICENSE)

### Don’t give us the credit!
**Amethyst Shaders is based on [Complementary Reimagined](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined), and we have only modified it to our liking! Go support the [Complementary Team](https://www.patreon.com/emingt)!**

## Amethyst Shaders 2.3 Out Now!

## Compatibility
Amethyst Shaders was build and playtesting using [**Iris**](https://modrinth.com/mod/iris) but should have some compatibility with [**Optifine**](https://optifine.net/home), as [**Complementary Reimagined**](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined) works on [**Optifine**](https://optifine.net/home). We cannot guarantee that all features will be functional, or function correctly on [**Optifine**](https://optifine.net/home), but most people use [**Iris**](https://modrinth.com/mod/iris) nowadays anyways, so it should be no problem.
