Solas Shader

A good performing fantasy stylized shaderpack with colored lighting and fancy visuals

Shot on my vanilla RPG server - https://ardonia.xyz

A supermassive black hole in The End

A small pond reflecting glowing cave berries blooming above it

A shot of Aurora Borealis from the low Earth orbit (100k blocks height)

Daytime lighting with specular highlights

Mountains covered in clouds in the evening

End islands with a procedurally generated nebula in the background

With a bright aurora flashing above them
