Wispy Shader

# Wispy Shaders V1.4 A performance-optimized shader pack initially based on Mellow Shaders and outperforms many other so claimed 'potato' shaders. Works on all major versions ## Credits * **Original Shader**: (https://www.curseforge.com/minecraft/shaders/mellow) by (https://www.curseforge.com/members/thecmk/) * **Performance Optimizations**: (https://www.curseforge.com/members/l_aggy/projects) ## Features (All information and statistics is based on V1.3) * **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: | Profile |FPS (iGPU) |FPS (dGPU) |Description | | ----------------- |---------- |---------- |---------------------------- | | <strong>ULTRA_PERFORMANCE</strong> |190+ |440+ |Maximum FPS, minimal effects | | <strong>PERFORMANCE</strong> |190+ |?? |Good balance for iGPU | | <strong>BALANCED</strong> |180+ |?? |A mix of features | | <strong>QUALITY</strong> |120+ |?? |More effects | | <strong>ULTRA_QUALITY</strong> |120+ |380+ |Lowest FPS, All features | ## Installation 1.
