Nova's Vibrant Lite Shaders is a Minecraft shaderpack made for Iris (maybe OptiFine) that runs on any PC quite well, and looks beautiful! In my testing, i got 3x more FPS than MakeUp Ultra Fast and Sildurs Enhanced Lite all on defualt settings MakeUp Ultra Fast being on lowest settings. Tests for my shader was done in 720p, 900p, and 1080p.
If you like this shader, consider following me on my TikTok and subcribing to my YouTube! This shaderpack is only tested on 1.21.11 and Iris, and compatibility on other versions or OptiFine is not guarenteed.
This shaderpack is a fork of Shadow Only Shader where i added lighting and light reflections! All credit for the original pack goes to bambosan (i think)

Written by NovaMods. Read it with pictures on Modrinth.
Install Iris (with Sodium) or OptiFine for your Minecraft version: shaders need one of them.
Download the .zip file from Modrinth. Do not unzip it.
In Minecraft, open Options, then Video Settings, then Shader Packs, and click Open Shader Pack Folder.
Drop the .zip file into that folder, pick Nova's Vibrant Lite Shaders in the list and click Done.
Shaders are heavy on the graphics card. If the game gets slow, pick a lower profile in the shader settings.
