Pack setup
How should I set up Immersed With Shaders for players and a server?
Use IWS 1.21.5 NeoForge-v5.3 as the pack version. Install the pack as its own launcher instance. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file, so check the release notes before setting up a dedicated server. Do not upload the ordinary client folder blindly.
A pack is a matched client and server setup, not one mod with an install-side label. Keep its release, loader, manifest and overrides together.
These numbers come from the pack file you chose. “Not labelled” means we don’t know which side it belongs on—not that it is safe everywhere. The file count is not a RAM estimate.
What are the server requirements for Immersed With Shaders?
IWS 1.21.5 NeoForge-v5.3 on 1.21.5 NeoForge. The pack contents and setup notes below stay tied to that release.
The selected pack release is IWS 1.21.5 NeoForge-v5.3. That file is for Minecraft 1.21.5 with NeoForge 21.5.75. This NeoForge setup needs Java 21. It contains 76 mod projects. The creator’s listing does not name a separate server file. Check their notes before using one, and do not upload an ordinary client folder or rebuild the pack mod by mod. A file count cannot tell us the right RAM, CPU or storage; size the server for the players and world you actually run.

To enable shaders, go to pause menu > Video Settings > Shader Packs > Select the shader that's there and click apply. Toggle Shaders button available too in controls. I own none of these mods or shaders, all credit goes to the mod authors, shader authors and resourcepack authors.
