Chocapic13 Shaders Mod (1.20.4, 1.19.2) Toaster version - special shaders

Chocapic13 Shaders Mod (1.20.4, 1.19.2) is a mod that significantly improves the graphics of Minecraft. As the name suggests, its main function is to add dynamic shadows (shaders in English), a pleasant wind effect on the leaves, real sunlight and improved water on previous models. There are several versions of the shader, all of them are more or less resource-intensive.

Features.

Dynamic time cycle.

Physically believable lighting system with a high dynamic range.

Shadows with variable shade size.

Volumetric fog of variable density with shadows.

High-volume clouds.

Water shader with water fog, reflections, caustics and refractions.

Global Screen Space Illumination (SSGI).

High quality time smoothing and upscaling (TAA / TAAU).

Custom grids and ends with biomes support.

Flowering.

The depth of field.

Contrast-adaptive sharpening filter.

Wavy Plants.

... etc.

Optifine settings.

Old lighting: OFF or DEFAULT

Vignette High Speed

Clean water: off for light/low/medium, on for high/ultra/extreme

Smooth lighting level: 55-75% for Light/Low/Medium/High, 0-20% for Ultra/Extreme

Clouds: Default or Off

Performance and System Requirements:

This mod is very demanding, so don't try to install it if your default Minecraft isn't working properly.

For me with GTX 670 I get 50-60 fps on extreme version, 75-80 on ultra, 90-95 on high, 100-110 on medium and 150+ fps on low (CPU here is limited) at a rendering distance of 16 chunks. This varies greatly depending on the situation.

Advanced tip:

In the shader package folder you will find .fsh and .vsh files. They can be opened in any text editor and contain various constants that you can edit yourself.

x1.42... corresponds to SSAA x2 and x2.0 to SSAA x4. However, this will reduce the frame rate.

You can also increase the resolution of shadow rendering.

Chocapic13′ High Performance Shader Version:

The goal of this shader package is to provide the basic functionality of the shader package while maintaining a very high frame rate. For example, when rendered at a distance of 8 Toaster Preset, an RX 480 is completely CPU-constrained at about 300-400 frames per second on a Ryzen 7 and runs at about 50-60 frames per second on an integrated Intel HD620. Its features include shadows, dynamic time of day, custom sky gradients, sun/moon glow, adjustable threads, and ends.
