The result is an awe-striking and beautiful cel-shaded overhaul to your Minecraft worlds. It combines both BSL and Complementary shaders for the best of both worlds, in addition to adding its unique spin of various graphical choices to choose from.

Astralex credits: LexBoosTĪstralex is an interesting shader created by LexBoosT. With all that it offers in terms of stability and beauty, it is a worthy trade-off. Everything on the ground is full of life and vibrant but when you go underground there is nothing too exceptional to gaze at. Additionally, this Shader features a photorealistic skybox which combines with the Minecraft aesthetic really well here. In terms of the changes, it is similar to what KUDA Shaders does but lifts up a notch, so colors pop more, lightings are soft and vibrant with a focus on realism. You can wander, explore or play survival mode and be tranced the whole time. And it achieves that goal with flying colors. Just like its predecessor, it intends to dish out as much visual elevation as possible without the loss of performance. The successor of KUDA Shaders is the project LUMA Shaders pack.

KUDA Shaders can run with any mods without a drop in performance and the creator also fixes bugs as quickly as possible when they are reported. The best part of this shader is its high compatibility and user experience. Nevertheless, it is still unique in its own right. Even the creator credits SEUS as its base. Users of SEUS can notice the similarities with Sonic Ether’s. Additionally, everything becomes more colorful, making every biome look gorgeous. KUDA Shaders improves the water and its physics much like a lot of shaders in here. The Kuda Shaders created by DeDelner is an example of how great Minecraft 1.17.1 shaders can be without being too complicated or too heavy. A suitable choice for newcomers and old shader enthusiasts as well.

Soft yet realistic lighting, serene skies, and vibrant environment make this a classic shader pack loved by all. Chocapic13’s Shaders offers high-quality graphical improvement featuring beautiful water physics with refractions, caustic reflections, and water fog alongside Screen Space Global Illumination. Chocapic13’s Shaders credits: Choca_13Ĭhocapic13’s Shaders have excellent optimization, and hence unlike most shaders, this one can run on a wide range of GPUs with steady performance.
