Description from the author on Modrinth

Dusk 0.1

This is a shader with semi-PBR support and directional lighting.
Right now it is in very early development and expect some bugs.
Currently it doesn't support animated textures.

Features (so far):

  • Directional illumination from the sun,
  • PBR normal suppor,
  • PBR reflectiveness,

Note: The shaderpack does not have built-in PBR and will need a resource pack.

Written by Abstract. Read it with pictures on Modrinth.

How to install Dusk

  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 Dusk 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.
