Requires Iris Shaders or Optifine . It may conflict with other "core shaders" that modify the same rendering pipelines. Setup and Requirements You must use a compatible PBR Resource Pack

One of its standout features is the ability to handle complex 3D geometry . While many older ray-tracing packs struggled with non-blocky shapes, this version correctly calculates light hits on custom 3D models (like detailed furniture or vegetation) rather than treating them as flat planes [2, 4].

Unlike standard shaders that use "faked" shadows, this project calculates light bounces across surfaces. It produces realistic soft shadows, ambient occlusion, and colored lighting from glowing blocks [2].

The project for Minecraft Java Edition is a sophisticated shader and resource pack combination designed to bring real-time path-traced lighting to the game without requiring the "Bedrock RTX" hardware layer. Key Features and Performance
