``` LITE shaders version 4.3 ``` Sorry for near launches! # OVERVIEW: This update is a Hotfix to adapt LITE shaders for MakeUp Ultrafast 9.3. # INHERITED from MakeUp 9.2 - The way fog is applied has been improved so that it looks better during transitions between open and enclosed areas, eliminating some strange behaviors such as when looking through a window or the sensation of fog existing indoors. - Water transparency viewed from inside has been adjusted. - Some colors have been subtly fine-tuned. # INHERITED from MakeUp 9.3 - Increased compatibility and support for some custom dimensions (Iris only). Tested in Ad Astra, The Aether, Deeper and Darker. - Fixed the brightness of enchanted objects in darkness. - Fixed an issue with the sky color when the player was in a pale garden biome and other similar biomes that adjust the sky color. - Fixed a compilation error message that only appeared in OptiFine. # ABOUT PALE GARDEN SKY. - I mentioned that in version 4.2 the bug was fixed, but it wasn't because of a typo on the code.

``` LITE Shaders version 4.2 ``` # OVERVIEW: This update focuses on improving the shader's look, as well as its performance (especially in MAX profile). The night is clearer now for better gameplay, lighting has been upgraded, and color balance has been added. This version also fixes the Boxy clouds bug. # INHERITED from MakeUp 9.1f - Vanilla clouds are now visible at long distances for versions 1.21.6 and above. # Custom dimensions support is back. # New feature: Vanilla AO. - It uses vanilla AO, which is faster than standard AO. It is now the default option. # Massive changes in sky with Realistic+ color scheme. - The sky now has 3 color layers and directional brightness, making sunrises and sunsets look incredible. (Available only in Realistic+ color scheme, support for Realistic (Pollution) is coming soon. MakeUp original schemes, LITE Legacy, and Vanilla will not receive this update.) - Low performance impact. (You can disable this in Effects -> Rendering -> Sky type) - A bug that made the sky in the Pale Garden change abruptly has been fixed, but stars in this biome have been disabled. Sorry about that! :( # Clouds changes and new feature: Dynamic Cloud density. - Cloud density changes slowly over time. - A bug introduced in version LITE FN2.1 that caused boxy clouds not to work has been fixed. - Cloud speed depends on wind force. # Lighting changes: - Night is clearer for better gameplay. - Reflection (gloss) is less strong on white blocks to avoid bright peaks. - Metals have enhanced gloss (again). - Main blocks have more notable gloss. - Emissive blocks shine brighter. (Lava, lanterns, etc.) # General changes: - Colored volumetric light removed. - Improved image quality using TAA. - Default Tonemapping method is now Lottes. It can be changed at Effects -> Camera -> Tonemap operator. - Water now has a blue overlay. - Fixed typos in "Lighting". - Fixed bad sky during rain at sunset/sunrise. - Blocklight color slightly changed. - Fixed PS1 effect not working in 4K and being too strong in low resolutions. - Works with 1.21.6 - 1.21.8 - Chromatic aberration is back. - Sun sets earlier. - Minor optimizations have been made to the code. # Graphic profile changes: - Medium is now the default graphic profile. - "Shadowless High" is now "Shadowless MAX". - Shadow quality improvement in "MAX". - Material gloss and Colored shadows are now default in "Medium". - The "Extreme" profile now has 50% more shadow quality. - Depth-based godray is now default. - Motion blur has been disabled by default. # Interface change: - Options have been reorganized again for easier and better configuration. "Advanced options" is now "Info". - Some improvements in the interface. # More custom: - RGB color balance and exposure can be adjusted in camera options. - The Tonemap operator can be changed in camera options. - Shadow quality has new levels: Extreme (between High and MAX), and Very low. - Shadow distance has more levels: 4, 5, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, and 16 chunks.

``` LITE shaders version 4.1 ``` Known bug: Very bad looking in sky during rain. ## INHERITED - Support for the new blocks added in version 1.21.5 ## Fullbright option! - Now, this shader has an optional Fullbright mode. (Minimal light config.) ## Lighting changes. - Light during the day is brighter for a more vanilla aesthetic, and to fix blocks that are too dark during the day. - Light sources are a bit less diffused. - Adjustments in night light colors to fix too black sky. ## Color scheme changes. - Realistic has a clearer night sky. - Horizon is smaller in all color schemes. - Small adjustments in volumetric clouds colors. ## Sharp TAA changes. - Sharp TAA no longer applies sharpness to places with excessive brightness, such as the sun and moon, improving image quality since the sharpness default value is 5 times higher. ## General changes. - You can turn off clouds directly on shader. (When clouds are in Vanilla, the shader uses your cloud config in Sodium or OptiFine.) - New adjustment: Water fog — you can change the density of fog of the water without affecting absorption index. (Water options.) - Small performance improvement, up to 5% more. - Interface improvements. - When water turbulence is set to "Very low" it is almost flat now. - Fixed artifacts in sun and moon when using Sharp TAA. - Auto Exposure responds faster to changes in light. - Fixed too strong gloss in non-metal, non-sand, non-fabric, and non-polished blocks. - Adjustments in Film Grain to avoid repetitive patterns. - A bug that made the Simpler exposure button not appear was fixed. - Vanilla clouds are now a bit more transparent. - It has a clearer image and better definition than 4.0. ## New effect. - Gamma: Adjusts the gamma of colors of shader. (Post processing options.) ## New button: Style - Style button replaces the "Vanilla" profile and you can choose the style from any graphic preset. Two styles are present: Default and Vanilla. ## Interface changes. - The options have been reorganised in Effects screen. ## Graphic profile changes. - "Vanilla" has been discontinued due to the new Style button. - New profile: "Very low" preserves shadows and it is even faster. Not recommended using with volumetric clouds. (Prettier and same performance than "Only shadows" present in legacy versions of LITE.) - Shadow quality in Low, Medium, High, Extreme and MAX improved, zero performance impact. TYPOS IN "LIGHTING" WILL BE FIXED. In 4.2 BOXY CLOUDS BUG WILL BE FIXED. In 4.2 Version code: LT41 Based in MakeUp 9.1e Olá de Entokito :)
