THIS IS FOR LEGACY SHADER COMPAT. THIS IS NOT FOR IRIS + DH SHADER COMPAT v2.
For Iris + DH shader compat v2, see the section under the heading v2 above.

Known issues

  • LODs don't have proper shading applied to them when using shaders, so at night the LODs may look too bright and not match MC's terrain
  • LODs don't have (correct) lighting
    • Can be improved by switching DH Settings->Advanced->Graphics Settings->General->LOD Shading to Old Lighting/Forced

Compatible shader mods

the problem is alex caves, you need to go to your mods folder, go to config and find the alexscaves-client.toml file, go into it and change biome_ambient_light_coloring to false

im trying to get this to work on 1.18.2 forge which doesnt have oculus 1.7.0 and i couldnt find iris on it, is there any info on compatability for distant horizons 1.0 or some other fix to my issue?

@Steveplays28

@Depresedblobfish Hi, you'll have to backport Oculus v1.7.0 to 1.18.2. There is no compatibility available for 1.18.2 nor for DH v1.x.

Hello, my friend tried the bliss mod pack, but when I tried it, my game started to accumulate frames, like the on the screen, I try to understand why, it does the same with every other's shaders I tried.

Capture d'écran 2024-09-09 012700

I play in version 1.20.1 of MC, with forge, and use optifine for my shaders, if anyone know how to make it work, it could be nice ^^

@lyrastico
Copy link

I think optifine is the problem, but i'm not sure, i've been using it since 10 years

@imheavi
Copy link

imheavi commented Sep 8, 2024

On Forge, you need to use Oculus and Embeddium instead of Optifine. They provide better performance and support almost all Optifine shaderpacks. You can get them here:

https://modrinth.com/mod/oculus
https://modrinth.com/mod/embeddium

I would try different combinations of versions to see what works, as some versions may be incompatible with others

Hope this helps!

im using MC 1.20.4, iris 1.7.2, and DH 2.2.1-a, but minecraft says that DH is incompatible with iris 1.7.4 or earlier versions, but for MC 1.20.4, the latest version of iris is 1.7.2, can you fix please, or explain me how to do to work? thanks.

    • xaeroworldmap 1.38.1
    • yet_another_config_lib_v3 3.2.2+1.20
    • yungsapi 1.20-Forge-4.0.4

the problem is alex caves, you need to go to your mods folder, go to config and find the alexscaves-client.toml file, go into it and change biome_ambient_light_coloring to false

Here's another helpful thread I found regarding Alex's Caves:

Hi, Oculus 1.7.0 won't work for me (crashes at startup after a second) the 1.6.0 version does work, but it doesn't work correctly, there is a very strong difference at the real chunk generation edge I use forge 1.20.1
