Sodium Core Shader Support Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.6) – Enables Custom Shaders

Sodium Core Shader Support Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.6) is a Minecraft mod that allows resource packs to replace Sodium’s internal shaders, much like how vanilla resource packs can override core shaders. It’s designed for players and creators who want custom visual effects while using the Sodium performance mod.

Features:

• Shader Replacement Support:
  • Lets resource packs override Sodium’s shaders for blocks, clouds, and terrain rendering.
  • Enables effects like night vision, energy glows, or custom lighting—if the resource pack is compatible.
• Developer-Friendly Structure:
  • Shaders are organized in folders like:
    • assets/sodium/shaders/blocks/ → block_layer_opaque.fsh/vsh
    • assets/sodium/shaders/clouds/ → clouds.fsh/vsh
  • Includes defines like:
    • RENDER_PASS_SOLID, RENDER_PASS_CUTOUT, RENDER_PASS_TRANSLUCENT for terrain types
• Compatibility Notes:
  • Not all vanilla shader packs will work—only those explicitly built for Sodium Core Shader Support.
  • Sodium may still show a warning about incompatible resource packs, even if they’re supported
