Hearthmist Shaders

New since 0.5.0

• Water reflections of visible buildings and trees, with ripple distortion.
• Drifting morning mist above open rivers and lakes, fading through the morning.
• Animated shoreline foam and small surface waves that become stronger in rain.
• New Water settings for reflections, mist, wave height and foam strength. Balanced and Cinematic enable these effects; Low disables them.

Fixes in 0.7.1

• Water vertices now move consistently in world space, independently of camera movement, screen depth and differences in face lighting.
• Narrowed overly wide shoreline foam strips.
• Limited wave displacement on thin flowing water to keep it above its block floor.

Compatibility and validation

For Minecraft Java Edition with Iris or OptiFine. Scene reflections use visible screen geometry; objects outside the frame or hidden behind other surfaces cannot be reflected.

375 GLSL program combinations and GPU render checks passed. This version has not yet been live-tested in Minecraft.
