RocketShaders

RocketShaders

A stadium-focused Minecraft shader pack built for RocketCraft.

Bring RocketCraft's arenas to life with an angled stadium sun, soft roof-grid shadows, glowing arena lights, bloom on boost and goal effects, and a dedicated dusk/night look.

RocketShaders was made specifically to pair with RocketCraft, but it can also be used as a standalone shader pack for Minecraft.

✨ Features

• Stadium lighting — A crisp, angled sun designed around RocketCraft's arena layouts.
• Roof-grid shadows — Soft shadows from the glass stadium roof fall naturally across the pitch.
• Arena lights — Stadium lamps illuminate the field with a bright, clean look.
• Bloom — Subtle glow on stadium lights, boost effects and goal explosions.
• Boost lighting — Boost trails and effects stand out without overwhelming the scene.
• Goal explosion glow — Goal explosions get extra light and bloom for a more dramatic finish.
• Dusk mode — A dedicated evening look with darker skies and illuminated stadiums.
• Night lighting — Arena lights become the primary source of illumination for nighttime matches.
• RocketCraft integration — Designed around RocketCraft's stadiums, lighting and effects.

🚗 Made for RocketCraft

RocketShaders was designed alongside RocketCraft.

RocketCraft adds Rocket League-style car soccer directly into Minecraft, including full-size arenas, car physics, bots, goal explosions and multiple game modes.

RocketShaders completes the visual side of that experience:

• Angled stadium sunlight
• Roof-grid shadows
• Arena lighting
• Boost glow
• Goal explosion bloom
• Dusk and night environments

With Iris installed, RocketCraft can automatically place RocketShaders into your shaderpacks folder.

🌅 The Stadium Look

The lighting is built around the geometry of RocketCraft's arenas rather than trying to make every Minecraft environment look cinematic.

During the day, the stadiums have a bright, clean appearance with strong directional sunlight and soft roof shadows.

At dusk, the sky darkens while the stadium lighting starts taking over.

At night, the pitch becomes surrounded by illuminated arena lights, with bloom and emissive effects helping the important parts of the match stand out.
