&emsp;Quality of the blur<br>
&emsp;Higher is better<br>
&emsp;Significantly affects performance</li>
<li>DoF Intensity<br>
&emsp;Intensity of the Depth of Field effect<br>
&emsp;Low performance impact</li>
<li>Maximum Blur - <em>High, Unlimited</em><br>
&emsp;Limits the strength of the DoF blur<br>
&emsp;Helps reduce artifacts when using lower sample counts and is better for gameplay</li>
<li>DoF Downsampling Amount<br>
&emsp;Amount of Downsampling that takes place for the Depth of Field effect<br>
&emsp;Reduces DoF artifacts, increases pixelation artifacts<br>
&emsp;No/Low performance impact</li>
<li>Far Blur Only<br>
&emsp;Only blurs far away things</li>
<li>Sample Rejection<br>
&emsp;Improved DoF Quality by (mostly) removing color bleeding<br>
&emsp;Can have a significant performance impact</li>
<li>Focus Delay<br>
&emsp;Sets how long the focus takes to adjust</li>
</ul>
<h3>Reflections</h3>
<ul>
<li>Reflection Mode - <em>OFF, Sky, Flipped Image, Raytraced</em></li>
<li>Raytracing Quality<br>
&emsp;Number of raytracing iterations<br>
&emsp;Lower is faster</li>

&emsp;Enables Physically Based Rendering<br>
&emsp;Make sure you enable Normal and Specular mapsm in the OptiFine shader options</li>
<li>PBR Blend<br>
&emsp;In order to stay closer to minecraft vanilla rendering, my shader blends between PBR and vanilla rendering<br>
&emsp;If you increase this value, the PBR effect will be stronger</li>
<li>Height as AO<br>
&emsp;Uses the Height information for Ambient occlusion</li>
<li>Normal Mapping Fix<br>
&emsp;With newer OptiFine versions this might not be necessary<br>
&emsp;Enable this if normal maps do not show on entities or handheld objects</li>

<h2>Agreement</h2>
<strong>You are allowed to</strong>
<ul>
<li>Use my shaderpack in your videos / screenshots</li>
</ul>
<strong>You are not allowed to</strong>
<ul>
<li>Redistribute my shaderpack: If you want to provide a download link you <strong>must</strong> link to my Modrinth / Curseforge page</li>

<h2>FAQ</h2>
<h3>Will you add shadows?</h3>
No, I won't. Shadows are performance intensive and will decrease the performace of my shader significantly.
<h3>Parts of the shader are glitchy / there are errors in chat</h3>
My shader does not support Intel Macs at all.
M1 Macs will break some features, and that is something I can't fix. You can try disabling the features that cause problems.
<h4>What now?</h4>
If none of these things apply to you: please create an issue describing your problem or join my Discord and describe your problem there.
These things apply to you, but you still want to use my shader? I am unable to properly debug these issues, so I won't be able to fix them. If you are fine going without the features that break, disable them. If you can't disable them, contact me and I can probably add an option for that.
<h3>Performace is bad</h3>
Select the "Low" Profile in the options.<br>
Try to disable these features: PBR, Godrays, DoF
