I Made Minecraft Shaders

[@Acerola_t]

This video unfortunately keeps getting views even though I'd really rather delete it because it's bad and contains mild amounts of misinfo, but I am keeping it around for the channel lore because of how different my newer videos are lol. If you actually care about the educational aspect of this video, I'd recommend watching my video on final fantasy xiv, as that is basically this video but a much more accurate and valuable resource for post processing shaders and pipelines.

[@Pringles1]

nice video tho

[@NeatNit]

Seeing this one after watching a bunch of your newer stuff was definitely an experience! I didn't know it was going to be like this, but it was obvious as soon as you started talking that this is definitely not the newer content I was familiar with. If you're worried about this giving people the wrong first impression, you could edit the title, thumbnail and description to make it clear. I 100% think you should leave it up though!

[@ighao6032]

it's very awesome and inspirational to see how much you've evolved dude

[@Rullisi]

That's fair. I find it funny how bored you sound throughout and in the end you state how fun it was.

[@iglobrothers645]

If he keeps this up, Acerola videos will soon be nothing but black scenes and organically evolve into podcasts on their own.

[@crabbatorium]

So interesting to come back to your first video after all the newer ones, it's really striking how big of a leap you made with just a couple tweaks to your narration and presentation. It's really not THAT different, just seems like you let yourself be more you, which is really fun to watch (not that this isn't, just noticing the "first attempt vs. found my groove.") Really happy I found your channel

[@Acerola_t]

Thanks it also helps that I dont do my voice overs at 4am anymore

[@Acerola_t]

@@crabbatorium I think you'll find that many things relating to internet pop culture derive from 4chan, so no matter what I use, it'll always kinda be connected to bad things and bad people in some way. I just use popular images from the early 2010s cause that's the aesthetic I want to embody and it has no relevance to 4chan for me lol.

[@ethos8863]

I know you probably won't see this but the reason why the results you get are weird when you do gamma correction at normal values is that its already gamma correct. Unless I missed a part where you transitioned to linear color space or something weird, Minecraft colors should be gamma correct by default. The video is very informative though and helped me create my own Minecraft rendering engine

[@Acerola_t]

Yeah I made this vid when I was significantly less experienced with color spaces and post processing in general

[@sans5955]

What gamma exponent does base Minecraft use? And what exponent do I have to apply to convert the colors to linear?

[@mushroomcraft]

I am shocked by how much your video quality has improved over the past few months :) [Insert motivational message here]

[@Acerola_t]

Lmao yeah this video is not great

[@redtro8678]

This shader reminds me somewhat of the Complementary Reimagined shader (although that might just be because that's aimed to be a Vanilla+ Shader).

[@apelsin9094]

I was looking for a shader that isn't trying to be all advanced n cool and instead just makes the world look a bit better, and this is exactly what I was looking for. Tysm ace

[@Povilaz]

Looks awesome!

[@tumm1192]

Great video; I learned a lot. I think the only think I didn't like was the bloom, but I think that has more to do with my hatred of the mid-2000's bloom trend.

13:43 "overload the interpolation," in other words extrapolate

[@Acerola_t]

yeah i didnt know the word for it lmao

[@NonbinaryAutisticArtist]

After ploppin' your shader into Optifine, I genuinely like how this looks! It has some kind of soft feel to it, and I think it fits well with the stylized approach. I think your Minecraft shader is a good effort, keep it up!

[@Acerola_t]

Thanks! Just dont go underwater or into the nether since the shaders do not work in those settings lol

O fruto nasce na aceroleira, que é um arbusto de até três metros de altura, cujo tronco se ramifica desde a base e cuja copa é bastante densa com pequenas folhas verde-escuras e brilhantes. Suas flores, de cor rósea-esbranquiçada, são dispostas em cachos e têm floração durante todo o ano. Após três ou quatro semanas, se dá sua frutificação. Por ser uma planta muito rústica e resistente, ela se espalhou facilmente por várias áreas tropicais, subtropicais e até semiáridas. A acerola, quando madura, tem uma variação de cor que vai do alaranjado ao vinho, passando pelo vermelho. Esta coloração é resultado da presença de antocianinas, especialmente pelargonidina e malvidina. Sua superfície é lisa ou dividida em três gomos. Possui três sementes no seu interior. O sabor do fruto é levemente ácido e o perfume é semelhante ao da uva. Possui vitaminas A, B1 (tiamina), B2 (riboflavina), B3 (niacina), cálcio, fósforo, ferro e, principalmente, vitamina C, que, em algumas variedades, chega a estar presente em até 5 gramas por 100 gramas de polpa. Este valor chega a ser oitenta vezes superior ao da laranja e ao do limão. A acerola está dividida em duas seleções: a acerola vermelha e a acerola laranja.

[@fumetsu-950]

my go to shader is always continuum, but when just now i tried it on 1.19.4 minecraft, the nights, and caves were so dark i literally could not see, and the torches were barely giving any light whatsoever. if i knew how to change brightness in it i would use it, but for now, im not using any shaders

[@loopit_3]

amazing how much you have grown in just 2 years

[@kadincool]

Why not do a fragment shader that raycasts to the light sources (not global illumination just to the light) for shadows. You could even straight up ignore the minecraft lightmaps as they are sometimes not the best for realism. And if you wanted to do GI then you could just do subsequent bounces. (Note I have minimal experience with shaders and work more with CPU code)

[@Acerola_t]

Because it's extremely expensive to raycast to light sources.

[@hfitfxhfhfufgugugu6589]

I do indeed care what ACES means so thx for explaining it. I mean you must admit that "academy color encoding system" sounds fancy and academic. Even mor academic would only sound academy colour encoding system. (Just kidding I know you cannot hear the "u" in colour)

[@point0419]

How do you do the shadow? Does minecraft allow you to render in other directions?

Are you able to see real time changes when coding and inputting different outputs?

[@NupeWoop]

I wish you were my math teacher. It was insane to think our computers are actually recipe books waiting to be written by us. I am floored to hear how much math is going on in the cpu and cpu but more so in the gpu. To hear that you have to render by the light source and it stores distance and material data. I need the math and I’m hungry

Your video is very well explained, I'd like to get into Minecraft shader programming too, but I can't find any Minecraft specific tutorials or training on the internet, should I start by learning all the GLSL basics, if you could advise me that would be great. 😃 I'm using a translator, sorry if it's not clear

unfortunately minecraft shader specific tutorials don't really exist, I'd start with the glsl basics though!

[@justforyou8790]

this video should be kept up and shown to teachers as demonstration on how drasitc the changes are in how well a viewer can listen to a string of information with fitting music in the background vs this total drag of 20 minutes... while the comparisson might be unfair since your voice has way more energy in your newer videos than here but music would mask that aswell to some extend as the music would carry alot of energy. imo...

[@Acerola_t]

yeah i keep it up because it shows just how awful my first vid was lol but turns out pretty much everyone's first few videos aren't great

[@loudnoises8197]

hey ace, you probably wont see this. but im a student software engineering in college right now, and you have inspired me to take a gander with video game (graphics) programming as a hobby. Do you have any resources or (technical) advice for a newbie (besides standard advice like "start small" and""90% of all gamblers quit just before they hit the jackpot"") thanks :)

[@Acerola_t]

if you're super brand new to programming I'd start with a higher level graphics library like processing.py or p5js, this stuff isn't actual graphics programming (not gatekeeping) but it's fun visual programming to get better at programming with. If you're more familiar with programming and want to do something cool on the cpu without delving into gpu programming, check out Ray Tracing In A Weekend which goes over a cpu ray tracer and also has several extensions. If you want to get towards what I do then I'd recommend catlikecoding's Rendering tutorials which goes over recreating Unity's uber shader for beginners.
