Native Shaders pre Minecraft 1.21.8

My Story

In 2023-2026, I've been searching for a shader pack that has Bedrock RTX looks without needing a good GPU, since I only have an iGPU. Unfortunately, while there's shaders like VTXS, Radiance, Complementary, and more, I still think there's something missing. It's not the crazy effects, it's that surreal, glowing Bedrock RTX atmosphere coming to life.

From July to October, I developed many edits on different shaders that were trying to look like Bedrock RTX, but they didn't turn out great. I was hopeless. I couldn't make something good that actually looks and feels like Bedrock/Vanilla RTX.

But in September, I found edits of this one shader called Chocapic13. While those edits were trying to make things realistic, I wondered. Can I make an edit of this shader pack that looks like Bedrock RTX or Vanilla RTX?

And at that moment, Native was born.

Native 0.1-ALPHA

Native is a Chocapic13 shader edit heavily inspired by Minecraft Bedrock RTX. It aims to bring that clean, realistic lighting style to Java Edition while staying lightweight and playable on a wide range of hardware.

Native supports AMD, NVIDIA, and Intel GPUs, with compatibility for both Iris and OptiFine. It's built with performance in mind, giving you RTX-inspired visuals without requiring an RTX GPU.
