Notice
This project has been archived. I unfortunately don't have time to keep it up to date, so you may run into issues with newer Minecraft/Iris versions.
Overview
Pixel Perfect is a Minecraft shader designed from scratch with two main goals:
- Aesthetics with Function: It revamps the vanilla look while maintaining gameplay, focusing on color and functionality. Unlike other shaders that are mainly eye candy, Pixel Perfect aims to be a viable replacement for Minecraft's default visuals.
- Cool Toys: This shader has lots of unique features and small enhancements, from invisibility distortion to streamer mode lighting to custom colorgrading (upload your own LUTs if you're tech-savvy enough).
Features
A selection of some of the features Pixel Perfect has to offer:
- Levels of Vanilla
- Choose the amount of vanilla you want in your shader from three presets.
- Vanilla +
- Vanilla ++
- Vanilla +++
- Choose the amount of vanilla you want in your shader from three presets.
- Extreme Customizability
- Nearly every value and shader effect can be tweaked, from contrast to wind speed to invisibility distortion.
- If you have Python, a custom python script allows you to upload and configure your own colorgrading profiles.
- Dynamic Wind
- Rather than blowing randomly, foliage gets affected by individual gusts of wind traveling in different directions
- Weather affects the speed, direction, and intensity of wind gusts
- Different dimensions have their own wind profiles
- Choose between several Darkness Options, including Hardcore Darkness and Streamer Mode.
- Much, much more (see all of this shader's features in the changelog).
