Description from the author on Modrinth

Wright

Wright is a shader that corrects lighting and enhances colors.

  • extremely fast and efficient near vanilla performance
  • mixes all lights additively and makes it glow more
  • faces pointing to sun moon or light sources are brighter
  • increases contrast and saturation with gamma correction
  • changes ambience to be realistic and cinematic

Written by skotah. Read it with pictures on Modrinth.

How to install Wright

  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 Wright 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.
