Minecraft Windows 10 4k Shaders

Minecraft became a smash hit without all the fancy high-resolution textures and lighting effects that other popular games hype. In fact, developer Mojang intentionally eschewed that in the name of building a simple, block-based world that could be rendered on even mediocre PCs. With Microsoft at the helm, Minecraft has added new features and come to more platforms, but it hasn’t looked any different until now. Microsoft expects to launch a new texture pack alongside its 4K update later this year that completely changes how the game looks.

Best Minecraft shaders for 1.16.4. Let’s not keep you in suspense: in our opinion, the best Minecraft shaders are BSL Shaders.Extremely customisable, lightweight and more performant than most of the others on this list, you can point your screen at basically anything in Minecraft and end up with a beautiful sight thanks to BSL Shaders.

There are actually a number of big changes coming to Minecraft this year. First, there’s the Better Together update, which will be a free part of the base game. This unifies most versions of Minecraft under the same game engine, known as Bedrock. That’s already what powers the mobile, Windows 10, Amazon Fire, and VR versions. The update converts Xbox One and Switch to bedrock. The PS4 and PS4 Pro are going to remain an outlier for now. Microsoft isn’t getting into details, but Sony has the option of moving to Bedrock.

Getting all (or almost all) versions of the game on the same engine is crucial to Microsoft’s plans. That will make it easier to release new content and DLC that works across devices. That included Microsoft content, as well as user creations sold via the previously announced Community Marketplace. In addition, multiplayer will become cross-platform. Except for PS4 users, I guess. They’ll continue on in their own little bubble.

Also free will be the update to 4K resolution. So, if you’ve got a 4K screen Minecraft will run at your native resolution. The pixels will be sharper, but it’ll still look like Minecraft. The real transformation will come with the Super Duper Graphics Pack, which is expected this fall. Microsoft has finally shown off what the new textures look like, and it’s very different. All the images in this post are from the new texture pack.

The Minecraft world will still be composed of blocks with the Super Duper Graphics Pack, but they’ll be much prettier blocks. However, this will require the Bedrock platform, so PS4 users need not apply. The Super Duper Graphics Pack will include rippling water, cleaner lines, and more realistic lighting. This part of the update will come with a price tag, but Microsoft hasn’t decided how much to charge yet.

Continuum 2.1 is the natural evolution of Continuum 2.0. It comes with a further refined and optimized code-base, with which we are able to push effects not seen in most ‘AAA’ titles, with better performance than ever before. Continuum 2.1 is designed to suite the needs of cinematic creators, builders, and general Minecraft players alike, while still offering many advanced tools and features you’d only find in modern rendering engines. Continuum 2.1 is currently only available via our Continuum Early Access package, which you can find in the store, however, once it exits Early Access it will see a full free release, much like 2.0 did. Read on for more info…

Continuum 2.1 is designed in two stages; the lighting stage, and the toning stage. In the lighting stage we do our best to assure proper energy by rendering with real measured values. Coming with a physically based Sky, Material System, Ambient Light, Reflections, and Volumetrics (Clouds, Air and Water); Continuum can make any Minecraft build look like it was exported from offline renderers, but in real time*.

*Performance will vary depending on your hardware configuration. Continuum is optimized, but some of the effects being used are quite expensive regardless.

Continuum 2.1 comes equipped with a physically based camera system. This means that we are simulating a raw camera inside the game. Using common values such as Aperture, ISO, Shutter Speed, and Exposure, the user can line up the perfect screenshot, just like you would with a camera, but in Minecraft!

Continuum 2.1 will offer a highly intuitive and configurable color grading system. Everything down to the tonemap will be configurable, with options to adjust the toe, slope, and shoulder of the tonemap, the user can truly make the shader their own. Other settings will include White Balance, Contrast, Vibrance, Saturation, Gain, and many more, making adjustments is easy and convenient. However, if that isn’t enough for your needs, we will allow you to upload a custom LUT into the shader just to make sure we offer anything a cinematographer would need.

Want Continuum 2.1 now? Consider Continuum Early Access!

Minecraft Windows 10 4k Shaders

Continuum Early Access is a one time purchase that grants access to the currently in development shader, Continuum 2.1, at each of the following stages of development:

ALPHA

Alpha Builds are the latest builds of the shader. These will give you access to what the devs are working on as they are working on it. They may be a bit more buggy than other builds at times.

BETA

Beta Builds are released when we have reached a significant milestone where the shader is in mostly working order, and is considered by the developers to be ‘feature complete’.

RC

Release Candidates are nearly complete versions of the shader, generally far more stable than any of the others. These builds are nearly fully featured and are just lacking that last bit of polish.

Continuum Early Access will grant you access to Continuum 2.1 and potential future versions of the mainline, non-RT Continuum Shader while they are still in active development. This allows you to play with the absolute latest stuff we are working on as we are working on it.

It also supports the projects continued development, and us, which we appreciate very much.

Continuum 2.0

Much like Continuum 2.1 is the natural evolution of Continuum 2.0, 2.0 is the natural evolution of 1.3. It boasts a completely new codebase, marking the first time a Continuum shader was not based on SEUS code. It was a landmark release for Continuum Graphics, and while it has it's issues, will always be special to us.

Continuum 1.3

Continuum 1.3 was the pinnacle of what the Continuum team could do within the bounds of old SEUS O3 shader code, and despite it being fairly outdated by modern Minecraft shader standards, is still a favorite of many of our fans to this day. It will live on in spirit and overall feel, but be brought into the modern age with the release of Continuum Legacy.
