VanillAA does exactly one thing and does it well: it adds fast anti-aliasing to smooth Minecraft's jagged edges while leaving the vanilla look completely untouched. Perfect if you just want cleaner pixels.

How to install VanillAA

1. 1Install a shader loader for Minecraft 1.18 – 1.20 — Iris (pairs with Sodium) or OptiFine.VanillAA is a shaderpack, so it needs a loader to run.
2. 2Download the VanillAA .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 VanillAA.
