RedHat is built on older Chocapic13 code, and that heritage shows in the best way — the warm, slightly hazy, semi-realistic look that a whole generation of shaderpacks descended from. mlgimposter keeps it running on current Minecraft versions, which is the hard part; a lot of Chocapic derivatives stopped years ago. Distributed under the Chocapic13 agreement, so download it from the official page.

How to install RedHat Shaders

1. 1Install a shader loader for Minecraft 1.7.2 – 26.1.2 — Iris (pairs with Sodium) or OptiFine.RedHat Shaders is a shaderpack, so it needs a loader to run.
2. 2Download the RedHat Shaders .zip from the button above — keep it zipped. mlgimposter’s licence doesn’t permit re-hosting, so that button takes you to the official modrinth.com page — always the newest build, straight from the author.
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 RedHat Shaders.

Performance & what to expect

RedHat Shaders is rated medium performance impact. It wants a mid-range dedicated GPU. Drop render distance a few chunks if you fall below 60 FPS. It renders atmosphere and shadows. The look is fantasy and semi realistic.
