Hyper Realistic Sky

Pick the correct version

• Java vanilla: These versions are set to "alpha" release type.
• Bedrock: Download from the bedrock page.
• Java Modded: This is the main version of the pack, and is set to "release" type. Select a version and scroll down to see the required mod. If more than one dependency is listed for a version, you only need one. When multiple mods are added as a dependency, that means that the pack will work with all of them, but only one of them is needed to get the pack working. Some mods are available on different versions and mod loaders, so I added support for as many as possible for the widest possible compatibility. Version compatibility is set to the pool of all the mods combined, so what you see is possible to run with at least one of the mods. Check the compatibility table below.
• OptiFine: This format is supported in the latest release version, and it's mainly intended to be used with Skyboxify, which may be available on some game versions that other mods aren't. This is a heavily compromised version of the pack, as many features are impossible to implement the same way as they have been for Nuit and Celestial. Here is a list of features that are not included: -rainbow, tornadoes, total solar eclipse, blood moon, blue moon, gas giants, black hole (both in the Overworld and the End), Andromeda, hurricane (outer space variant), seamless fog and the animated sunflare. And these are features that work somewhat differently due to the format's limitations: -Large lightning strikes will occur only 4 times per night, and will be animated much more slowly. -Small lightning strikes will not be visible with Skyboxify, as these are animated sky elements, which Skyboxify doesn't support. -The Northern star is positioned directly at the horizon, which makes it impossible to see, unless you're at Y>=320. -Light pollution will only occur at full moon. -The sun and moon are not properly integrated into the sky layers, which means they will be rendered in front of everything else.
• Light version: There is a lightweight version of the pack available for download. These versions are set to "beta" release type. Please read their changelogs and check their dependencies. Again, if more than one dependency is listed for a version, you only need one of them.

FYI

• To check out the many features of the pack, I've provided a text file in the pack that has instructions.
• If you want to disable certain featues of the pack, get Respackopts and use the gizmo in the pack selection screen. Note that if you use Celestial 2.0, the in-game chat will show error messages, but you can ignore those. Alternatively, you can follow the instructions in the text file inside the pack. (this method will not cause error messages to appear)
• Celestial 2.0 requires core shaders to have smooth transitions between different sky layers, which is implemented as a pack overlay in the latest release. Since pack overlays only work from 1.20.2 and above, if you're playing on a version below that, you need to copy the "shaders" folder from "celestial/assets/minecraft/" to "assets/minecraft/".

Shaders

This pack does of course work with shaders, but since each shader works differently and has different settings, you will most likely need to tweak them to get a good look.
