Zephyr Starlight Shaders (26.2, 1.20.1) – Path Tracing with PBR Textures
Zephyr Starlight lights up your Minecraft world with experimental real-time path tracing. It replaces the basic game lighting with realistic shadows, glowing colors, and shiny reflections. This shader runs heavy math to figure out exactly how light bounces off blocks. It reads PBR materials, which makes blocks look like they have real texture and physical depth. It needs a strong graphics card to run smoothly.

- Paints the world with colored lighting from blocks like torches, lava, and redstone.
- Casts sharp and soft shadows depending on where the sun or light source sits.
- Reads PBR textures so blocks show physical depth, bumps, and shiny spots.

- Requires a strong computer setup because the lighting math takes a lot of power.
