Sonic Ether’s Unbelievable Shaders is a mod which adds a great deal of depth to Minecraft by implementing 3D lighting and visuals. While the world will remain blocky as always, light will curve around corners, objects will cast more realistic shadows and water effects will be greatly improved with this mod, even without using any resource packs to upgrade the look of Minecraft. Like other shader mods, this one can be very demanding on a player’s graphics card, making it unviable when using older computers, or even newer computers without a solid amount of graphics processing power.

It will also be necessary to download and install the GLSL shaders mod so Minecraft will allow custom shaders to be used in the first place.
