A classic-style variant of Solar Shader featuring the original single-column list menu layout instead of the modern boxed grid interface. Ideal for players who prefer a traditional, straightforward settings menu that flows top-to-bottom.

What's Included:

  • Optimized performance — shadow resolution reduced to 1024, screen-space shadows & SSAO disabled by default, volumetric clouds and water caustics off, voxel lighting downsampled to 128
  • Night Vision Tint slider — customize the green tint intensity when under Night Vision potion effect (0–3.00)
  • Cloud quick-access — toggle between Planar Clouds and Vanilla (Legacy) clouds directly from Advanced > Other menu, with full cloud customization sliders
  • Six presets — POTATO, LOW, MEDIUM, MAX, EXTREME, and Custom profiles for every hardware level
  • Full feature set — TAA, bloom, lens flare, planar clouds, water reflections, rain effects, sun/moon rendering, atmosphere, and more
