Shader development is hard and takes a lot of time. If you enjoy my shaders, please consider supporting my work!
# Visual Vibrance
Visual Vibrance is an attempt at recreating the upcoming "Vibrant Visuals" feature which is currently only available on the Bedrock edition of Minecraft.
Visual Vibrance is an alpha and since it was forked from my other pack, (https://modrinth.com/shader/glimmer-shaders) in a relatively short period of time, there may be bugs. You can report these to me in (https://discord.gg/4U3nPxTznF) or `#jbritains-shaderpacks` in (https://discord.gg/RpzWN9S).
## Compatibility - OpenGL 4. 3+ - macOS is not supported, nor is the Raspberry Pi. Most modern GPUs (integrated or dedicated) should work fine. - Iris 1. 7+, OptiFine is not supported.
## Mod Compatibility The following are mods that are known to cause issues. - Chunks Fade In causes the shader not to compile, this is a problem with the mod and the assumptions it makes about shaders.
The source code for this pack is available (https://github.com/jbritain/visual-vibrance). If you are interested in contributing or assisting in the development of this shaderpack, don't hesitate to make a pull request, as I have only some interest in maintaining this pack, and it was mainly made just to see if I could recreate the look.
Visual Vibrance is an alpha shader pack for Iris that recreates Minecraft Bedrock's Vibrant Visuals feature. It requires OpenGL 4.3+ and Iris 1.7+, but is no longer actively developed, so bugs won't be fixed. Despite this, it has 585 endorsements and 2.2M downloads, indicating a strong user base.
✨ Key Features
📊 Pros & Cons
✅ Pros
- Huge download count (2.2M) shows it's a popular shader pack
- Solid endorsement ratio (585 endorsements) indicates user satisfaction
- Open source on GitHub, so community can fork or contribute
⚠️ Cons
- No longer actively developed, so bugs won't be fixed
- Alpha status means you may encounter glitches or crashes
- Not compatible with OptiFine or macOS, limiting some users
This is for Minecraft players who want to experience the Vibrant Visuals look on Java edition without waiting for the official release. It's also for tinkerers who enjoy alpha shaders and don't mind occasional bugs. If you're on macOS or use OptiFine, this isn't for you.
💡 Beginner Tips
- Make sure you have Iris 1.7+ installed, as OptiFine won't work with this pack.
- If you use the Chunks Fade In mod, disable it before enabling the shader to avoid compile errors.
- Since it's alpha, test on a backup world first to see if you can handle the bugs.
