Halcyon

A shader pack for Viewpoint with a sky and water worth stopping for.

  • Sky: a Milky Way, nebulae, a northern aurora that glows behind the clouds, a phased moon and shooting stars; sunsets that light the clouds
  • Water: wind-driven waves, reflections, glitter, shallows, shore foam and rain rings
  • Look: filmic tone and a time-of-day grade, soft shadows, drifting cloud shadows, lens flare, depth of field, motion blur and film finish

Every part is a switch. Enable the mod, then in game press Delete for Viewpoint's settings, Graphics > Shaders, and pick the halcyon shader pack (use Rescan if it is not listed).

Halcyon replaces a few of Viewpoint's own shader files, so another add-on that edits Viewpoint's sky or post-processing shader would lose that edit. Client-only: it changes only how your own screen looks.

Requires:

Version 0.2.15
