DreadFrame Shaders repaints the world with a spooky red and black look. It covers blocks and mobs in harsh ink outlines, gritty grain, and classic scanlines. A pulsing dark vignette frames your screen to give horror gameplay a retro comic book feel. The shader only alters in-world rendering, so menus and text stay clean and easy to read. It runs smoothly even on low-end potato computers.
