Climax Shader (1.26+) – Deferred Rendering

Minecraft Bedrock has recently introduced a new deferred lighting system that allows for more realistic and immersive graphics. Climax Shader is a shader that takes advantage of this system and adds shadows, atmospherics, depth, and glowing effects to the game. With Climax Shaders, you can enjoy the changing colors of the sky and the sun throughout the day and night cycle. You can also see the eyes of hostile mobs glow in the dark, making them more menacing and easier to spot. Additionally, some blocks have a 3D look and colored lighting that enhance the visual appeal of your builds.

Climax Shaders is still in beta and more content will be added as the deferred lighting system gets updated. Currently, it supports the Beyond The Underground add-on by adding emissive entities and armor.

Features:

Lighting & Atmospherics

• Sunrise at around 6:00 am in-game time:

• Noon (12:00 pm). The sun is directly overhead and this time of day is the brightest with no shadows:

• Sunset (6:00 pm). Block surfaces facing the sun all have a golden tint to them:

• Nighttime at around 8:00 pm:

• Midnight (12:00 am):

• A screenshot taken at nighttime:
