A huge thank you 🙏
Quanta Shader exists only thanks to **Javier G. Cimarras (`javiergcim`)** and his amazing project **[MakeUp Ultra Fast]**.
All the heavy lifting — the lighting model, the shadows, the water, the sky, the clouds, every clever optimization that makes this shader fast — is his work. This project is just a small, respectful fork: renamed, cleaned up, and slightly tweaked.
If you like Quanta Shader, please go and support the original author first. He deserves all the credit. ❤️
