v1/Legacy

Open dropdown for v1/legacy shader compatibility information

THIS IS FOR LEGACY SHADER COMPAT. THIS IS NOT FOR IRIS + DH SHADER COMPAT v2.
For Iris + DH shader compat v2, see the section under the heading v2 above.

Known issues

• LODs don't have proper shading applied to them when using shaders, so at night the LODs may look too bright and not match MC's terrain
  • Can be fixed by disabling shaders in the main menu, and reactivating them when in a world (thanks Maybike (Distant Horizons Discord server))
• LODs don't have (correct) lighting
  • Can be improved by switching DH Settings->Advanced->Graphics Settings->General->LOD Shading to Old Lighting/Forced

@JapaLG You need to use Java 17 for 1.19.2.

@Steveplays28 it worked, thanks

can anyone help with this issue? Im running SuperDuperVanilla shaders with dh

@Steveplays28 the Rethinking voxels download links to the wrong branch, it should link to https://github.com/gri573/rethinking-voxels/tree/singlesample-softshadows-v2

@fayer3 I've updated the link, thanks for letting me know!

@Flux34 Try asking in the Distant Horizons Discord server, I'm not sure why that's happening, could be overdraw prevention.
