1.0 | Nov 4, 2026 | 26.1 – 26.3 | Release |
Hi I'd like to introduce you to a project I've been working on for a while now: a small shader that aims to mimic the style of Mojang's renders and Vibrant Visuals, featuring pixelated shadows, pixelated water, highlights, and a unique pixelated aesthetic.
The Important Features:
I use this shader myself to play Minecraft every day, so I'm making sure it's actually enjoyable and practical for survival gameplay. This includes features like:
A lot of the shader is customizable and you can tweak for more contrasty look or a softer look
BEFORE U INSTALL:
This shader has only been tested in the version 26.3, with some mods, do not expect compatibilty with mods like Physics mods, voxy, distant horizons, or any mods I need to build the support for that in later updates
If you like the shader or interested in my projects, you can support me on my patreon
Written by Matrakalero. 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 Mr Pixel 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.
