ABOUT

**Eclipse Lite V2 is an ultra-lightweight Minecraft shader for low-end PCs and laptops. It keeps the vanilla look while adding subtle visual improvements and cinematic black bars for a movie-like experience — all with minimal FPS impact.
.**

Features

Eclipse Lite is made for ultra-low-end devices. It has no waving effects and avoids all heavy features like bloom, motion blur, and depth of field to ensure high FPS. The water uses the default Minecraft style but is transparent for a cleaner, more aesthetic look. This shader is in BETA, so minor bugs may be present. It's perfect for players who can’t run shaders like Sildur’s Lite or Mellow but still want a subtle visual boost.

How to install Eclipse Lite Cinematic

  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 Eclipse Lite Cinematic 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.
