Aurora Sunset is an open source Minecraft sky pack meant to revamp the visuals of your game world in a drastic way without any loss of frame rate. This pack converts the regular blocky sunsets into beautiful transition gradients, rich golden hours, and a stunning aurora filled sky in the nighttime.
In contrast to most shader packs, which cause lag issues in game, Aurora Sunset keeps everything light and true to Minecraft’s vanilla gameplay mechanics since it is entirely open source. To avoid unwanted copies - the link to read the code is in the files - and on the links page.
The website will be up in no time, just stay tuned!
Written by the.hallway.48. Read it with pictures on Modrinth.
Install Iris (with Sodium) or OptiFine for your Minecraft version: shaders need one of them.
Download the .zip file from Modrinth. Do not unzip it.
In Minecraft, open Options, then Video Settings, then Shader Packs, and click Open Shader Pack Folder.
Drop the .zip file into that folder, pick Aurora Sunset Shaders in the list and click Done.
Shaders are heavy on the graphics card. If the game gets slow, pick a lower profile in the shader settings.
