ABOUT
OPAL Shaders is a shaderpack for Minecraft Java Edition based on BSL Shaders created by Capt Tatsu.
It aims to blend a fantasy atmosphere with natural colors and contrast while staying true to Minecraft's original style.

If you're using Iris, I recommend installing LambDynamicLights mod for dynamic lights.

AGREEMENT

You're allowed to:

Use this shaderpack for taking and sharing screenshots and videos.
Publish your heavily modified version of the pack if both OPAL and BSL shaders are clearly credited (including their authors) and the name of your edit is original.

You're not allowed to:

Redistribute the shaderpack without my permission.
Claim (and rename) my shaderpack (or its code) as your own.
