**Why Do we take wikis so seriously? simple because if you go to the wrong one and get a virus we could be blamed without our shaders having any malware. we also dont want people to get viruses and let the scammers succeed so please never download from Harmful sites. we only include them so you know they are harmful if you ever download a mod or shader from them.** (the way we check is we look through the sites and if it links to modrinth for the download it automaticlly goes to trusted if it downloads from their site thats auto untrusted because we cannot tell if they added something to the file and untrusted is if the file size is smaller then our offical shaders which mejority are or if they get a harmful detection from VirusTotal.)
if your new or don’t know how to download shaders then were here to help!

# Showcase Videos
Even videos where they show off shaders takes time to create which can take away from their personal lives. Originally this only showed our offical showcase but we wanted to support the community. ([email protected] if you want a video added or removed.)

[**Gamomnia**](https://www.youtube.com/@gamomnia) – Shows Zayko at **4:02**
A performance-optimized shader pack initially based on Mellow Shaders and outperforms many other so claimed ‘potato’ shaders. Works on all major versions
* **Ultra-optimized** for integrated graphics (iGPUs)
* **40%+** improvement on Balanced compared to MakeUp-Ultrafast with all effects off
* **Color grading** and biome‑specific lighting for all dimensions.
* **Cinematic post‑processing**: bloom, sharpening, tonemapping, TAA, motion blur, film grain, vignette.
## To-do
1. More benchmarking
2. Adding features (Can’t really optimize more)
3. Bugfix some features
## Performance Profiles
* iGPU (8 Chunks) tested on i5-4570 (HD4600) on CachyOS
* dGPU (24 Chunks) tested on R9 8940HX (5060 Laptop=4060 desktop) on Windows 11
* Choose a profile in shader settings that matches your hardware:
1. Install [Iris Shaders](https://irisshaders.dev/) or OptiFine
2. Download Wispy Shaders
3. Place the ZIP file in `.minecraft/shaderpacks/`
4. Select Wispy in Video Settings → Shaders
5. Choose a performance profile
## Optimizations
* ~~Disabled~~ Deleted expensive composite passes by default
* Fast gamma correction
* Simplified post-processing
* Optimized every composite pass and fog,lighting,sky,water,taa,bloom e.t.c
* Reduced shader complexity
* Too many to count now mainly faster math less calls,lookups and samples check [source](https://github.com/Epxlsol/Wispy-Shader) for more

Wisp Shaders
# **Wisp Shaders**
Primitive shaders with **no fancy effects or PBR**, meant to make the game look good while sticking to the vanilla style.
# Features:
– Directional lighting, lightmap based
– More vibrant environment colors
– Custom clouds
– Adjustable fog
– Waving leaves
– Water foam effect
– Cloud reflections in water
– Rain puddles
# Compatibility
The shaders were developed and are intended for minecraft version **1.21.1 and up**, and Iris version **1.7 and up**, but **may** work on lower versions.
If tag support is present, the tag _**minecraft:leaves**_ will be used for waving leaves, otherwise leaves from **vanilla** and **Biomes O’ Plenty** are used.
Water Shader Alpha
# Water Shader Alpha
## About
The Water Shader Mod is an old mod created by Necrowizzard and later updated by Superbomb17 that features reflections, refractions, and waving water. This shaderpack is a complete rewrite of the original water shader mod and updates it to a shaderpack compatible with Iris for Minecraft 1.20+. This new shader is more stable, suffers fewer bugs, and fixes issues from the original mod.
Vulkanite Demo Pack
# Vulkanite Demo Pack
This is a demo shaderpack for https://modrinth.com/mod/vulkanite-mod. It needs an RT capable GPU (10 series and up on Nvidia, 6000 series and up on AMD).
## Warning
This pack is only a demo, meaning it’s not really intended for gameplay purposes, but as a future reference for developers and a technical showcase. Please don’t report issues related to the look of the pack.
You _have to_ use a PBR capable resourcepack, otherwise the shader won’t work properly.
## Features
The following features were implemented
– Path traced lighting with configurable bounce amounts
– Reprojection and Infinite standby accumulation options
– Rudimentary PBR texture support
– (Bad) auto exposure
– Water reflection, refraction and fog support
## Contributions are welcome
Visual Addons

##### A shader for Minecraft adding a few neat visual addons

# Features:
Made for Minecraft 1.21.5 & Iris
– ### Damage Effects:
– When you take **damage** your screen turns **red** and the graphics get **deformed**.
– When you are **low on heath**, the screen also gets more red (depending on how much health is left). It also gets deformed.
– ### Water Effects:
– The water has a **new** design. It is now more transparent.
– Underwater, the **graphics** are **blurred**. The **faster** you swim the more the graphics are blurred.
– When you are underwater and **loose air**, your screen gets **darker** and darker (depending on how much air is left).
– ### Fog:
– There is a basic **fog**.
– ### Other:
– Entities taking damage no longer have that red effect.
– The lower you are on hunger the darker the screen.

VHS Overlay
◽ This shader adds the classic VHS tape Overlay with REC, date and time.
◽ Also effects like Film Grain, Scan Lines, Chroma Shift.
❗ Overlays are not static. It’s working real time. (Not real date/time of your pc but like recording time.)
⚠️ Requires OptiFine or Iris (Sodium).
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.
Vanilletix Shaders is a community-driven enhancement project led by ara_mat, built upon the acclaimed [Super Duper Vanilla](https://modrinth.com/shader/super-duper-vanilla) shader pack by [Eldeston](https://modrinth.com/user/Eldeston). Since its initial release two years ago, the project has garnered over 500,000 downloads across Modrinth and CurseForge.
**This pack uses the vanilla shader system, it’s not compatible with Iris or Optifine!**
**To use the pack you need to enable the _Fabulous!_ graphics mode in the video settings.**
# VanillaPuddingTart
VanillaPuddingTart (an abbreviated and then incorrectly unabbreviated version Vanilla Path Tracing) is a resourcepack that adds global (non-screen space) lighting effects to the game, such as:
The pack comes with a built-in texture pack but if you have the time it’s recommended to use a third party one.
Texture packs need to go through a conversion process to work with VPT, please follow [this guide](https://blog.balintcsala.com/posts/vpt-setup/) if you want to do this. This process is heavily RAM-limited, so packs with large textures might fail (I recommend at most 128x).
## Compatibility
1.) The pack is _incompatible_ with any mods that might change how the game draws stuff, notable examples:
– Optifine
– Sodium
– Rubidium
2.) Because of the nature of vanilla shaders the only supported version is the last major release (e.g. 1.20). The pack may work on older versions but it’s not guaranteed to.
3.) The minimum supported resolution is 1024×768 and the maximum is 3840×2160, going below the minimum or above the maximum in either direction (e.g. 1000×768 or 3840×2500) will cause glitches.
## Known issues
Please don’t report these:
– Water is broken (will be fixed later)
– A handful of blocks don’t have built-in support
– Lava is broken (will be fixed)
– Lava doesn’t emit light (probably can’t be fixed)
– The end and nether doesn’t work (probably can’t be fixed)
– Emissive parts don’t always follow the rotation of the blocks
## Early access
Early access versions are available one month before the public release for patrons.
