# Forget-me-not Shaders

**Forget-me-not** is a semi-realistic pipeline shader for the [Canvas](https://modrinth.com/mod/canvas) mod. It’s designed to give the most authentic and immersive experience while sticking to “traditional” rendering methods to keep up good performance.

**Canvas** is a client-side renderer mod that uses shaders for advanced rendering with the goal of having a modern and very flexible design for high performance and better readability. The shader system is entirely different from Optifine and Iris & Sodium and as such, Forget-me-not won’t work with any of these mods! See the `how to use` section for installation instructions.

## notice

If you’re a developer or mod hoster, Forget-me-not is licensed under the [LGPL v3.0](https://www.gnu.org/licenses/lgpl-3.0.en.html), so please make sure to read over the terms of the LGPL if you use any of Forget-me-not’s original code or distribute it.

## how to use third-party shaders with canvas

1. Be sure you’re on 1.19.4 or above. Support is not guaranteed for versions that Canvas doesn’t actively support.

2. Install [Fabric](https://fabricmc.net/wiki/install).

3. Get Canvas Renderer mod through [Modrinth](https://modrinth.com/mod/canvas). **Keep in mind that Canvas does not work with Sodium, Iris, OptiFine, or OptiFabric.**

4. Download your preferred pipeline shaderpack. If you’re looking for alternatives to Forget-me-not, try out [Lumi Lights](https://github.com/spiralhalo/LumiLights/releases), [Lomo (not for gameplay as of this writing)](https://github.com/fewizz/lomo/releases), or [Aerie (vanilla-plus, wip)](https://modrinth.com/shader/aerie-shaders).

5. Launch your game, put your downloaded `.zip` file into your `resourcepacks` folder and activate the resource pack. (Don’t extract it!)

6. Navigate to `Options / Video Settings / Canvas / Pipeline Options / Pipelines` and select the pipeline that you want to play with.

## troubleshooting

– Experiencing bad shadow outcomes? In `Options / Video Settings / Canvas / Debug`, set `Shadow Priming Strategy` to `TIERED` and `Disable Shadow Self-Occlusion` to true.

– Does Canvas say in chat that some shaders are broken? Please grab your log in `.minecraft/logs/latest.log` and all contents of the `.minecraft/canvas_shader_debug/` folder and either make an issue on GitHub or let me know about it on Discord.

– Does every Canvas pipeline break other than Canvas Basic? If so, your device is probably incompatible with Fabulous graphics, which most Canvas pipelines use. Unfortunately, there’s no fix for this.

## feature highlights

– seasons! be immersed in your world as the seasons change over time

– HDR, bloom, and tone mapping

– dramatic skies with atmospheric scattering and custom realistic clouds

– water waves and reflections

– support for PBR, with hundreds of built-in default materials

– contact-hardening variable penumbra shadows

– advanced anti-aliasing (TAA)

Fantasy Shaders Reimagined

## **Fantasy Shaders Reimagined**

This shader is based on the [Complementary Shaders](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined). Fantasy Shaders are a modification of the Complementary Shader, intended to make the game more colorful, striking, and vibrant, in a fantasy style.

This is my first project for Minecraft Java so it may have bugs and things to improve, so I would appreciate it if you left me either a bug report or suggestions to improve this mod on my [Discord server](https://discord.gg/7Z6FuKmGwG).

### **Modifications**

– The color of the night has been changed to a fantasy blue king, including skies, auroras, clouds, nebulas…
– The color of the day has become brighter, the sky now has a white horizon and the upper part is light blue including the clouds.
– Sunsets and sunrises are now more colorful as if you were in a fantasy world.
– The reflection of the surface and the sky at night has been improved, giving a mirror-like effect.
– The End has been recolored so that the color of its environment is attached to the purple tone of the Endermans.
– The rays of light have been intensified.
– Now the night and the End are starry.

### **Compatibility**
– This was created using [Iris](https://www.irisshaders.dev/) but since this is a modification of the complementary shader it should also work in [Optifine](https://optifine.net/home).

### **Notes**

– Fantasy Shader is a modification that complies with all Complementary Shaders licenses and terms of use.
– This shader is based on the original work and fully respects the copyright and license terms. My person also has his [License](https://github.com/AleGraphics17/privacy-policy/blob/main/License) which I invite you to comply with.
– I don’t have all the credit for this, most of the credit goes to [Emin](https://www.patreon.com/emingt), creator of the [Complementary Shaders](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-reimagined), since the Fantasy Shader is just a modification of these.

### **Changes**

– Compatible with Iris Minecraft v1.21.11
– A nebula has been added to the End sky.
– The night fog was greenish, now it’s blue, aligning with the horizon.
– The intensity of the light emitted by blocks like ores has been increased…

Fantasy Shaders Unbound

## **Fantasy Shaders Unbound**

This shader is based on the [Complementary Shaders](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-unbound/version/latest). Fantasy Shaders are a modification of the Complementary Shader, intended to make the game more colorful, striking, and vibrant, in a fantasy style.

### **Modifications**

### **Notes**

– Fantasy Shader is a modification that complies with all Complementary Shaders licenses and terms of use.
– It is necessary that in the settings you put the Unbound option to have the appearance of the images
– This shader is based on the original work and fully respects the copyright and license terms. My person also has his [License](https://github.com/AleGraphics17/privacy-policy/blob/main/License) which I invite you to comply with.
– I don’t have all the credit for this, most of the credit goes to [Emin](https://www.patreon.com/emingt), creator of the [Complementary Shaders](https://modrinth.com/shader/complementary-unbound/version/latest), since the Fantasy Shader is just a modification of these.

EcoShift Lite

EcoShift Lite is a refined version of EchoShift made to keep the original style while making it cleaner, smoother, and more balanced. It improves the visual experience with better lighting, softer bloom, cleaner water, improved atmosphere, and more controlled colors without pushing the shader too far.

The goal of EcoShift Lite is to enhance EchoShift while keeping its identity. Overworld scenes feel more polished, water looks deeper and cleaner, lava is better controlled, and the Nether and End are adjusted to feel more immersive while still staying familiar.

EcoShift Lite is made for players who want the feel of EchoShift in a more balanced and lightweight form
