FadedClouds Shaders softens the horizon by making default sky clouds fade away smoothly in the distance. This shader pack keeps the vanilla look of the game intact while adding basic Iris and Oculus post-processing effects. It runs smoothly on weak computers and potato setups without causing lag. You get a cleaner view of the sky without heavy performance drops.
