Detailed information

![No AI used](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/cached_images/04c248057ee8ac9ef6ab6715ae1e984aa1134fb3_0.webp) A very lightweight iris-based shader that tries to emulate the visuals of Minecraft a1.1.2_01 as accurately as possible. (Made with minecraft versions 1.20 and later in mind.) ![genesis screenshot](https://cdn.modrinth.com/data/dE3Syxsf/images/7cc55985ba98055e4522158cb49baaec74634143.png) If you steal this as-is I will hunt you down. (I'm looking at you 9minecraft.) ![Do not redistribute my shader.](https://i.imgur.com/hoPKnSN.png)
