About this project

What does Demonica: Shaders + CTM add?

⚠️ IMPORTANT: Read before using release 0.9.0 (current release)

Cleanroom loader required: Cleannroom 0.7.x is required. If your 1.12.2 instance is using forge, I recommend adding the Cleanroom Relauncher to your instance.
Optional connected textures mod: Add the jar to your instance for Demonica-powered CTM support: Evil CTM 0.1.1 (alpha)

Demonica

Demonica brings shader packs to Minecraft 1.12.2 on Cleanroom. It is the Iris shader pipeline, the GLSM GL state manager and a compatibility layer, running on top of the separately installed Celeritas renderer. It takes over the role of Actinium, from which it forked at 4a19c959 (docs/FORK.md); unlike Actinium, it carries no copy of the terrain renderer.

What it does

Shader packs draw Celeritas's terrain, with terrain shadows and the block IDs packs use for waving plants and water.
GLSM, Angelica's GL state manager, to which vanilla's and mods' GL calls are redirected.
Iris's and Demonica's settings in Celeritas's Video Settings, next to its Shader Packs tab.
