What is the Nostalgia Shader?
It is a shaderpack meant to replicate the look and feel of "first-gen" shaderpacks (Seus v08, Chocapic v3 etc.) while also adding new features and visual effects like volumetric fog.
What are the features/effects that this shaderpack has?
- custom skybox and lighting colors
- dynamic shadows
- volumetric fog
- wind effects on foliage
- shader based vanilla styled clouds (including an option for story mode styled clouds)
- second layer of volumetric clouds (partially inspired by super duper pack, but better)
- nether and end support
- TAA and auto exposure
Where can I download it?
Either here or via my website (link below).
Any Requirements?
Optifine for 1.12 or newer
A nVidia or AMD graphics card supporting OpenGL 4.0
Windows or Linux

Hi! Love this shader! But Im having trouble on my modded server (Another person is on the server is also having the same problem)
The Shaders works normally until I change what I'm holding, The shadows go all funny if Im not holding a pickaxe or a hammer?
Examples;
When Im holding pickaxe or hammer;
I've tried a few things to fix this, changing optifines, updating to the most recent version of the shaders and a lot of playing around with the settings, Is there any fix for this?
Looks like some mod is interfering with the rendering in a way that is incompatible with shaders. Best bet would be to split the mods into two groups and see which one still has the bug and then repeat that step with the affected group until you found the mod causing this.

Ah! Okay will do thank you!
Great shaders ! However, it doesn't seem to work on worlds created by the Multiverse plugin
I absolutely love this shaderpack, so beautiful, yet so simple. I have discovered a problem when I loaded it up on a pre-existing, pre-opened world. When an enchanted item is being held, worn, or is dropped, the texture is all black when facing away from the sun and is the purple enchanted effect when facing towards the sun.
Here are a couple images.
Same thing happens with your Vanilla Plus shaders.
What Optifine version are you using? If you're on 1.15 update to the latest optifine preview, if you're on 1.16 please wait since there are a bunch of rendering issues in 1.16 rn.
Block particles look way too bright under all conditions. How do I fix this?
What Minecraft and Optifine version?
In reply to RRe36:
1.15.2 and the Optifine version is 1.15.2 pre30
Known issue. Has to be fixed on Optifines end. 1.14 and below should work fine.

Thanks for the reply
Having two issues with this shader. The first one is using this shader with "The Flying Things" mod causes the brooms and carpets to appear black and white with their animated enchant texture. The second issue is when mining a block with tools the whole screen goes white with the breaking texture happening on screen. Does anyone know any fixes to these issues? (edit I figured out the flying things mod issue by opening the config screen in game)

Is there any way to turn off water shader separately?
You can disable the custom water color in the settings to restore the vanilla texture. Can be found in World > Water
As a heavy moded player, I downloaded every version of 1.12.2 shader, but none doesn't seem to work. BSL and Sildurs both working fine. Which makes me quite confers... Every time I turn it on says [shader] error: blah blah blah... And I see you said the Requirements is An Nvidia or AMD graphics card supporting OpenGL 4.0, Windows or Linux. Is it because I'm a Mac user so it doesn't work?
You are correct in assuming that it is because of macOS. This is why I listed Windows or Linux as requirements. Sildurs and BSL only work because they use a pretty old GLSL Version, which also is the newest one macOS supports on Minecraft. Blame Apple for this stupid restriction since their OS is the only one having this issue.
I'm having an issue with the block breaking texture being grey. Any fix?
Hello, i really like this shader's but im having a problem with the enchanted tools and armor they all look dark/purple and are not looking like normal tools/armor with enchantment i dont know if this is a problem with the shaders or something i did but i hope you can help me
Really nice shader! Only issue I'm having is that the nights are really dark for me, already tried messing around with the settings but nothing changed so is there something specific in the settings that will turn the brightness up a bit during the night, or just in general? Thank you!
