Do the standard lighting effects in Minecraft leave something to be desired? For most people, they do.
Even with smooth lighting and graphics settings maxed out, everything still looks, well, blocky. Sildur’s Shaders mod is just one of many different shader mods which focus on improving the overall look of Minecraft by adding more realistic lighting effects. Light will roll around corners and cast realistic shadows, just like in real life, and the effects on Minecraft are instantly recognizable once you have installed this mod. Like other shaders, this mod requires a good bit of graphics processing power. Basic Shaders: Sildur’s Vibrant Shaders: v1.13 Screenshots: Cinematics: Unlike other shaders which focus solely on lighting effects, Sildur’s Shaders mod also implements waving grass. It might not sound like much, but compared to the eerily still grass which is standard in Minecraft, the moving stuff gives the impression of a rolling breeze passing.
It makes the game more engrossing, and that’s good news for those of us who use Minecraft as a means of escape. Sunspots, lens flare, motion blur and other effects also help make Minecraft look more realistic when this mod is installed.
Overall, the visuals of Minecraft will only improve with this mod installed, so try it out. Sildur’s Shaders Mod Update Logs v1.164.

Download the and and installation on both. Download the Sildur’s Shaders and go to.minecraft/shaderpacks. Put the Sildur’s Shaders files into shaderpacks folder. Go in-game to options - shaderpacks and choose it from the list.
Occasional glitching on textures like the player texture (default skins and custom skins tend to go invisible, quitting to menu and re-entering the map seems to fix this occasionally) and horses are skinned as invisible with two floating ears, even on default Minecraft textures. Disabling shader and exiting to menu and entering the map again to try to fix the horses does not fix this, though when they take damage they temporarily return to normal during the damage animations and death animations while shader is disabled. Animals also glitch out like player model does, though switching texture packs returns them to normal (switching back to the texture pack that they glitched out on once animal texture returns won’t cause them to disappear again).
Could just be the shader mod and not the shader pack that’s causing it, though I myself am not sure. Just a heads up for you guys to look into this on your end. I’m using the Lite version and default Minecraft textures (the one included with the game itself). Don’t forget! If you happen to be using forge, download the “GLSL Shaders mod” then put the Glsl shaders in your “Mod folder” in.minecraft.
If you don’t know how to do that hold windows+r then%appdata% enter. Next click.minecraft then go to your mods folder, if you don’t have one make one. After that put the glsl shaders in your mods folder. Then download this pack, if you don’t already have a “shaderpacks” folder in your.minecraft, make one! Then put this shaderpack in your shaderpacks folder run minecraft on the forge your glsl shaders is (if your glsl shaders is 1.7.10 run 1.7.10 forge) once your mc is loaded click options then you should have a new option called “shaderpacks” click it then click “Sildurs Shaders” open it and enjoy!
🙂 NonForge: Download the Glsl Shaders mod, after downloaded place it in your desktop, run it and it should create a new profile called “(version-Shaders)”. Then go to your.minecraft then make or use your shaderpacks folder, bring the downloaded sildurs shaders and put it in there. Run minecraft, you should have a new option called “Shaderpacks” in your options, click it then click “sildurs shaders” open it and enjoy 🙂.
There are so many and mods out there that the Shaders Mod 1.13/1.12.2 might easily be overlooked by players who search using more specific terms. This mod, authored by karyonix, is actually a fine shader mod that adds a special shadow map to the world to complement the light map which is already there. There are actually normal maps and specular maps to consider too, because the Shaders Mod allows you to change the appearance of your Minecraft world in some unexpected ways by modifying these aspects of the game, which you may not have even realized existed without this mod. The Shaders Mod for Minecraft 1.13 can have such a strong effect on Minecraft that the FPS may be seriously reduced, even for players who normally get a nice 60+ FPS when playing the game normally. In fact, you would need to get something close to 200 FPS if you wanted to use the Shaders Mod and still get a decent framerate with all of the settings turned up to their maximum values. Basically, if you don’t have a great computer, you probably shouldn’t even look at this mod.
Other shader packs like Sildur’s will give you some decent lighting effects that aren’t as demanding if you absolutely need them. If you run into slowdowns, glitches and crashes even with a CPU and GPU powerful enough to render all the shading, lighting and shadow effects produced by the GLSL Shaders Mod, then you might want to look at the driver version you’re using for your graphics card. Some drivers seem to work incredibly poorly with this mod and you can find a short list at the mod’s page, which you can find at Minecraft Forum as well as a number of other websites. Thankfully the Shaders Mod is highly compatible with a number of other mods, including Optifine and Forge.
