Description
Detailed information
An extremely simple camera-effect shader.
Designed to mimic the appearance of old cameras, vintage photographs, black-and-white images, or VHS recordings.
(Mimic, that is, not entirely replicate.)
### Current Features:
- Chromatic Aberration
- Animated Noise
- Scan Lines
- Black and White
- Vignette
- Flickering
- Pixelate
- Grain Artifact
- Desaturation
- VHS wave/distortion
- Random Lines
- Image Quality Changer
- Auto exposure
- Sharpness
- And more!
### Notes
- The shader has been tested on Iris and Optifine, but I'd prefer Iris.
- If you just loaded the shaderpack and everything looks like vomit, go to the shader settings and select a profile, any profile.
- I have been made aware of [this site](https://minecraft-inside.ru/shaders/180251-extremely-simple-camera-effects.html), which is currently distributing the shader without my permission. Remember, **this is the only official site for downloading this shader**.

### Updates and Enhancements
- **Customization Improvements**
- **Chrom and Luma noise, along with Chromatic Aberration**
- **Wave Strength**: Setting wave strength to 0 will now actually turn it off.
- **Grain Artifacts**: Less grain artifacts. If you do encounter any, just reload the pack.
- **Realistic Auto-Exposure**: Enhanced auto-exposure for a more realistic appearance (still in development).
- **Camera Animations**: Added new camera animations for dynamic visual effects. Note that camera strafing is still in development.
- **Contrast Adjustment**
- **Barrel Distortion**
- **CRT Profile**
- **Noise and Film Grain**
- **Color Distortion Removal**: Removed previous color distortion feature (now replaced by chroma and luma noise) and added a filmic look.
- **TV Profile**
- **Sepia Tone**
- And of course, **Bug Fixes**, incuding the bug that prevented terrain from rendering.
### Credit
- Thanks to Bestsoft100 for his Base Shader. I have used some of the code to reproduce the vanilla sky, terrain, and other elements.

Happy holidays!

Added Noise and Noise Strength.
Added Scan Lines and Scan Lines Strength.
