HyperShader v1.2 — The Elements Update ❄️🔥🌊✨

Four elements. One update. The world just got more alive — and FANCY got FASTER without losing a single pixel of beauty.

❄️ Living Snow — NEW!

• When it snows, the world freezes over: blocks get a glistening frost coat with tiny ice crystals that sparkle as you move 💎
• Snowy skies are now milky white instead of rain-gray — snowfall finally feels like snowfall
• Smart weather: the shader knows if it's raining or snowing where you stand — rain soaks, snow freezes

🔥 Heat Haze — NEW!

• The air shimmers and trembles above lava — stand at the edge of a lava lake and feel the heat
• Only up close (~20 blocks), like a real heat wave — and the Nether is a whole new experience with its lava oceans 🌋

🌊 Underwater Light Rays — NEW!

• Sunbeams pierce the surface and follow you while diving — pairs beautifully with the caustics from v1.1 🤿
• Physically-minded: rays fade away in deep water and flooded caves

🌙 Moon rays — NEW!

• The moon now casts its own silver-blue light rays at night — the same silky god rays you love, tuned for moonlight
• God rays quality maxed by default (16) in every profile — no profile will lower them anymore

🚀 FANCY, now with free FPS

• Relief mapping (POM) now fades with distance: identical detail up close, zero cost far away
• New POM distance slider and a "Texture relief" toggle — pick the look you prefer

🌍 The menu now speaks your language

• The shader menu follows your Minecraft language: English by default, full Spanish included (es_ES / es_MX)

✨ Polish everywhere

• Nether portals now glow their true vivid purple in the Nether too — plus the whole Nether gained bloom: lava and glowstone with a warm halo
• Lily pads fully cleaned up: leaf-shaped shadows, no more ghost squares
• Crisper plant shadows, smarter reflections, powder snow rendered solid, ice no longer glows at night... and a dozen more little fixes

Winter is coming. So is the heat. Update now! ❄️🔥

HyperShader v1.1.0 — The Living Weather Update 🌧️⚡

The biggest update yet: the world now REACTS to the weather, the water got a massive glow-up, and shadows went from "nice" to "wait, is that MY shadow?!" — all while staying butter-smooth on low-end PCs. 🥔💨

🌧️ Living Weather — NEW!

• The world gets soaked when it rains: blocks darken and glisten, and puddles form on open ground with real sky reflections and sparkling raindrops 💦
• Raindrops ripple the water surface while the storm lasts
• Cloud shadows drift across the terrain — and they match the exact clouds above your head ☁️
• Full storm mood: overcast gray sky, muted sunlight and gray fog while it rains — the whole world feels the weather
• A rainbow 🌈 appears right after the rain stops... and slowly fades away
• Lightning flashes light up the sky AND the terrain for a split second ⚡

🌊 Water 2.0

• Caustics: dancing threads of light on the bottom — from the surface and while diving 🤿
• Refraction: the underwater world bends and wobbles through the waves
• Foam hugging shores and edges
• Reflections rebuilt: no more streaky artifacts, smooth fade at screen edges, and longer reach at the same FPS cost

🌑 Shadows: fixed & sharper

• Fixed the diagonal stripe artifacts (shadow acne) on sunlit blocks
• Shadows are now so clean that your own character casts a crisp, visible shadow — it was always there, now it finally looks right 👤
• Shadow resolution and distance are now adjustable in-game (up to 3072!) — pick your balance of crisp vs. fast

✨ Comfort & Extras

• FXAA — smooth edges, nearly free 📐
• Profiles: FAST / BALANCED / FANCY — one click to match your PC 🥔➡️🚀
• Dynamic hand light: your torch lights the way in the Overworld, the Nether and the End 🔦
• Twinkling stars — every star flickers with its own rhythm 🌟
• God rays raised to quality 12 by default — silky light shafts in every profile

🎛️ More control than ever

• New WEATHER tab in the shader menu: toggle every rain effect individually
• 6 new sliders: puddle amount, cloud shadow darkness, caustics, refraction, hand light and rainbow intensity
• As always: EVERY effect can be tuned or turned off in-game — you are in full control

Update now and go dance in the rain! ☔
