CTR VCR wraps your screen in a nostalgic camcorder aesthetic — scanlines, chromatic grain, a blinking REC indicator and a timestamp overlay. Retro found-footage fun that installs in a couple of clicks.

How to install CTR VCR

1. 1Install a shader loader for Minecraft 1.12 – 26.2 — Iris (pairs with Sodium) or OptiFine.CTR VCR is a shaderpack, so it needs a loader to run.
2. 2Download the CTR VCR .zip from the button above — keep it zipped. It is mirrored on MineSpecs, so there is no ad-gate or redirect.
3. 3Drop the .zip into your .minecraft/shaderpacks folder (%appdata%\.minecraft\shaderpacks on Windows, ~/Library/Application Support/minecraft/shaderpacks on macOS).
4. 4Launch the game, open Options → Video Settings → Shaders, and select CTR VCR.

Performance & what to expect

CTR VCR is rated potato performance impact. It is the lightest tier we host — it runs on integrated graphics and older laptops. It renders atmosphere. The look is cursed.
