Description from the author on Modrinth

Why?!

Based on Complimentary Unbound, these shaders were made to be as ugly as possible.

Honestly, these shaders are a complete joke. Use at your own risk and don't use if you have issues with photosensitivity or motion sickness.

How to install Super Ugly Shaders

  1. Install Iris (with Sodium) or OptiFine for your Minecraft version: shaders need one of them.

  2. Download the .zip file from Modrinth. Do not unzip it.

  3. In Minecraft, open Options, then Video Settings, then Shader Packs, and click Open Shader Pack Folder.

  4. Drop the .zip file into that folder, pick Super Ugly Shaders in the list and click Done.

  5. Shaders are heavy on the graphics card. If the game gets slow, pick a lower profile in the shader settings.
