LemonyShaders
A lightweight shader pack that makes reflective surfaces actually feel reflective. Water, metal, ice, glass, honey, and slime each get their own screen-space reflections and material response, layered on a clean, close-to-vanilla lighting base — no heavy performance cost from volumetrics or path tracing.

Features
- Screen-space reflections on water, metal, ice, glass, honey, and slime — each with its own roughness and reflectivity for a distinct look
- PBR-style specular highlights on metal blocks (iron, gold, copper) using a Cook-Torrance BRDF
- Two water modes — flat textured normals, or fully procedural animated wave ripples (no texture needed)
- Swaying leaves with per-block randomized motion
- Day/night light color shift
- Soft shadows with PCF filtering Good for: players who want realistic-looking water, glass, and metal without switching to a full graphics overhaul — light on performance, easy to run alongside resource packs.
