A Beautiful And Optimized Shader Pack For High, low and mid PCs And Computers. Vivid Horizon is a vanilla-like pack from Tav6442. It targets high-tier hardware and up and runs through Iris or OptiFine on Minecraft 1.21 – 26.2. The pack itself ships the Complementary License Agreement, which does not allow re-uploads, so the button above goes to the author’s official Modrinth page.

How to install Vivid Horizon

1. 1Install a shader loader for Minecraft 1.21 – 26.2 — Iris (pairs with Sodium) or OptiFine. Vivid Horizon is a shaderpack, so it needs a loader to run.
2. 2Download the Vivid Horizon .zip from the button above — keep it zipped. Its 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.

Performance & what to expect

Vivid Horizon is rated high performance impact. It is demanding — treat it as a showcase pack rather than a survival daily-driver, and expect to tune render distance. The look is fantasy and vanilla like.
