# Adi Cinematic Shader 🎬
Welcome to the **Adi Cinematic Shader**! Originally designed for high-quality Minecraft recordings and cinematic sequences, this shader pack strikes the perfect balance between ultra-realistic visuals and lag-free gameplay performance.
Whether you are building a massive base in survival or recording a cinematic trailer for an SMP, this shader gives your game a moody, natural, and breathtaking look.
### ✨ Key Features
* 🌅 **Cinematic Golden Hour & Lighting:** Features custom ACES Tonemapping, enhanced contrast, and a dynamic warm tint during sunrise and sunset for the perfect cinematic shots.
* ☁️ **Realistic Procedural Clouds:** Custom 5-octave FBM (Fractional Brownian Motion) clouds that drift naturally across the sky and turn beautiful golden-orange during sunset.
* 💧 **Smart Depth Water:** Crystal clear, cyan-tinted water when you are close (perfect for seeing kelp and corals), which naturally becomes opaque in the distance for a realistic ocean horizon.
* 🌑 **Ultra-Smooth Optimized Shadows:** Features a highly optimized 16-tap PCF (Percentage Closer Filtering) shadow system at 2048x resolution. Enjoy buttery-soft, glitch-free shadows without the heavy FPS drop!
* 🐛 **Zero Glitches:** Strictly fixed "Peter Panning" (floating shadows) and Alpha Clipping issues. Grass and leaves cast perfect, detailed shadows.
* 🔮 **Proper Translucency & Portals:** Nether portals and stained glass maintain their glowing textures without messing up the water transparency logic.
* ✨ **Emissive & Dimension Support:** Integrated block, item, and entity properties. See glowing ores, glowing Enderman/Spider eyes, and custom atmospheric fogs for the Nether and The End!
### ⚙️ Compatibility
* **Supported Mods:** Iris Shaders, OptiFine
* **Minecraft Versions:** 1.21.x (and older versions)
* **Hardware:** Optimized for mid-to-high-end PCs, maintaining a stable framerate without compromising on the soft cinematic aesthetic.
