Description from the author on Modrinth

Abort

FreeVibrant is a "FREE" shader pack for iris inspired by Vibrant Visuals.

But why create such a shader pack now?

There are already a variety of shader packs available for Minecraft, but many of them are bound by strict licenses that limit their use, and in particular many have restrictions on bundling them into modpacks. In most cases, bundling into modpacks is prohibited, or even if it is possible, credits are required.

So I thought there was a need for a shader pack that could be easily bundled into modpacks, and created "FreeVibrant Shaders".

Requirements

  • Graphics driver supporting OpenGL 3.3 or higher

How to install FreeVibrant 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 FreeVibrant 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.
