Velvet
A Fabric & NeoForge library to help with shader usage, based off of Satin
Quick answer
Which Velvet release should I use?
Velvet 0.5.1+NeoForge targets 1.21.1 with NeoForge. The project page does not say whether it belongs on the client. The project page does not say whether it belongs on the dedicated server. All 2 required mods have matching files.
Where it goes
Is Velvet required on the client, server, or both?
The project page does not say whether it belongs on the client. The project page does not say whether it belongs on the dedicated server.
The source does not explicitly classify this release as client-only or server-only.
What else does Velvet 0.5.1+NeoForge need?
0.5.1+NeoForge. Change the file and its required mods may change too.
Install Sparkweave Engine, Sparkweave Engine first. We found matching files for this game-version and loader setup.
We only count dependency files that match this setup. A file for another loader does not fill the gap.

About this project
What does Velvet add?

Velvet is a multiloader library for making and using your own OpenGL shaders based off of Satin. I highly suggest supporting the Satin developers, but don't pester them with bug reports if you're using Velvet.
For documentation, Satin's wiki will provide you with everything. Some class and method names are difference, as Velvet renames them to match Mojmap names.
Adding Velvet to your project
If your project is Fabric only, please use Satin instead.
You can add Velvet by putting the following in your build.gradle:
repositories {
maven {
name = "Up-Mods & Cammie's Corner"
url = "https://maven.uuid.gg/releases"
}
}
For Fabric (Ignore this if you're only using NeoForge):
dependencies {
modImplementation "dev.cammiescorner.velvet:Velvet-Common:${velvet_version}"
modImplementation "dev.cammiescorner.velvet:Velvet-Fabric:${velvet_version}"
// If you want to jar-in-jar Velvet
include "dev.cammiescorner.velvet:Velvet-Common:${velvet_version}"
include "dev.cammiescorner.velvet:Velvet-Fabric:${velvet_version}"
}
For NeoForge:
dependencies {
implementation "dev.cammiescorner.velvet:Velvet-Common:${velvet_version}"
implementation "dev.cammiescorner.velvet:Velvet-NeoForge:${velvet_version}"
// If you want to jar-in-jar Velvet
jarJar(dev.cammiescorner.velvet:Velvet-Common:${velvet_version}) {
transitive = false
version {
strictly "[${velvet_version},)"
prefer ${velvet_version}
}
}
jarJar(dev.cammiescorner.velvet:Velvet-NeoForge:${velvet_version}) {
transitive = false
version {
strictly "[${velvet_version},)"
prefer ${velvet_version}
}
}
}
Then add the library version to your gradle.properties file:
# Velvet version
velvet_version=0.x.x
Or your libs.versions.toml file if you're using one of those instead:
# Velvet version
velvet_version = "0.x.x"
For the latest version of Velvet, please check the GitHub Releases.
