Aurelia Shader

Aurelia Shaders

A cinematic shader pack for Iris + Sodium, built around dramatic skies, realistic water, and a signature green solar-eclipse End.

Features

• Dynamic sky – sunrise/sunset gradients, a circular sun and moon (all 8 moon phases), and softly twinkling stars
• Volumetric clouds – lit by the real sun direction: bright tops, darker undersides, orange at sunset, dark in storms
• Realistic water – animated waves, reflections, sun glints, depth-based colour, and shore foam
• Light effects – god rays and bloom
• Soft shadows with adjustable quality
• Weather – rain darkens the sky into overcast, grey storm clouds
• The End – a green solar eclipse with a black disk and glowing corona (switch to the classic purple End in the settings)

Settings

Includes Low / Medium / High / Ultra presets, plus separate options for shadows, clouds, water, reflections, bloom, god rays, fog, exposure, and the End.

Performance

Volumetric clouds are the most demanding feature. If your FPS is low, lower Cloud Quality first, then God Ray Quality and Reflection Quality.

Requirements

• Minecraft Java Edition 1.21.x
• Iris Shaders + Sodium

Known limitations

• The Nether has a basic atmosphere only
• Rainbows, lightning, and underwater caustics are not added yet
• Distant clouds can look slightly grainy
