Description from the author on Modrinth

⚡ DRIFT POV — The Ultimate Motion Blur

Experience Minecraft like never before. DRIFT POV is a custom-engineered motion blur shader pack designed specifically for high-intensity PVP, SMP gameplay, and cinematic content.


✨ Features

  • 🚀 Zero Lag: Highly optimized GLSL code for maximum FPS even on low-end PCs.
  • 🌀 Cinematic Smoothness: Professional-grade blur that makes every camera movement feel fluid.
  • 🛡️ PVP Ready: Designed to enhance visibility during combos and fast turns without cluttering your aim.
  • 🎨 Cyan Aesthetic: Perfectly tuned for a modern, electric gaming vibe.

🎛️ In-Game Presets (New!)

No more messing with complicated code files. Drift POV v1.2.0 now features an built-in, easy-to-use menu slider featuring custom-tailored performance presets:

  • 🛑 PVP: Drops the blur samples right down for the cleanest visibility, maximum frame rates, and zero distraction during fights.
  • 🥔 Potato PC: A perfectly balanced, lightweight profile built to give smooth motion to low-end systems.
  • 🔄 Normal: The classic, default Drift POV experience—crisp, clean, and perfectly balanced.
  • 🎬 Ghost (Cinematic): Maxes out the blur samples and intensity for incredibly fluid, movie-like video creation and clips.

🛠️ Requirements & Compatibility

  • Supported Engines: OptiFine OR Iris / Oculus Shaders.
  • Supported Versions: Universal support for Minecraft

⚙️ Recommended Manual Settings

If you choose to fine-tune the shader manually instead of using a preset, we recommend setting your Motion Intensity to 0.5 - 0.7 in the shader options for the most competitive experience.

How to install Drift POV

  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 Drift POV 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.
