Baunilha Shader - Vanilla-focused light shader

SHADER

A lightweight shader that adds shadows and depth while keeping Minecraft's classic look and performance.

Baunilha Shaders solves a common problem for players who want better visuals without abandoning Minecraft's original charm or sacrificing performance. This shader pack adds clean, dynamic shadows and sun-tracked lighting that follow the day-night cycle, all while strictly preserving the default color palette and block textures. It is designed for everyday survival gameplay, building projects, or exploration where heavy shaders cause lag or distort the vanilla aesthetic.

This pack is ideal for players using lower-end hardware or those who simply prefer a minimal, faithful enhancement. It offers a noticeable improvement in depth and atmosphere without changing the core experience. The shader works best with the Iris mod loader and is optimized to run smoothly on a wide range of systems, from modest laptops to high-end desktops.

  • Accurate Shadows – Dynamic shadows that bring depth to every block and structure.
  • Sun-Tracked Lighting – Real-time lighting that naturally follows the sun and moon cycles.
  • Vanilla Spirit – Enhances visuals while respecting the original aesthetic and color palette.
  • Performance Friendly – Lightweight codebase built for low impact on frame rates.

Requirements: This shader requires the Iris shader loader for Minecraft. It is compatible with both low-end and high-end machines due to its optimized design. Note that this is the creator's first shader project, so updates and refinements are in progress.
