June Shader Updates!

Added 2024-06-03 00:16:36 +0000 UTC

please report bugs and share screenshots on discord!

*Iris recommended, there is broken stuff in optifine at the moment

*Please start by selecting a Preset, the default is kind of broken rn

version 6-20:

Normal map generator is in testing
fixed bugged shadows on newer iris versions
Working on compatibility for amd, intel... but might still be just nvidia on iris :/

version 6-10:

Less Light Leaks near cave entrances
Exponential falloff options for torches and skylight for more dynamic Lighting, used by default on Ultra and Cinematic
Cinematic is now a test ground for alternative Lighting, has none of the old sky lighting either, just 360 Lighting, and brighter torch light with higher falloff
*working on making the 'Cached Clouds' system hybridized with the default for better, faster clouds that still have volumetric fog

version 6-8:

No more distortion in off screen Reflections
Double fps on Cloud rendering! with new 'Cached clouds' option in 'Quick Performance' Menu
Ability to limit reflections and pathtracing with 'Basic Reflections Only' option in 'Quick Performance' Menu
New Low setting that uses both of the above

version 6-3:

improvements to ray traced Sun Shadows & Torch shadows
360 Environmental Lighting should now work in all resolutions
capacity to Run 'COOK_AN_EGG' Preset at 60fps on a 4090 using a compatible Frame gen & Upscaling App like 'Lossless Scaling'

version 6-2:

HD Ray Traced sun shadows (defaulted on on 'Very HIgh' and up)
ray traced torch shadows working with 360 Environmental Lighting
360 Environmental Lighting defaulted on, on 'Medium' and up, with varying performance per profile, and dedicated menu (will only get better)
Lots of tooltips and Menu cleanup and bug fixes
*Iris recommended, Optifine support is still broken in a few ways. 1920x1080p resolution or higher is required for 360 lighting, I'll fix that this week. If using a lower resolution change 'Testing/Jank_tracing' to 9 but this will disable the 360 Environmental Lighting
*Please start by choosing a Preset, 'Medium_Subtle' is probably the best to start from, as Default settings are broken :/
