3D Skins

This 3D Skins mod adds an extra layer of detail to your Minecraft skin and others by extruding the second layer of Minecraft skins, making certain skins "pop" and appear more lifelike and visually pleasing. You can customize this modification, adjusting the layer and model scaling, allowing the skin to fit better with your preferences.

Why should I use the 3D Skins mod?

Let’s say you want to take a screenshot or record replay visuals using Replay Mod. The 3D Skins mod adds additional detail to the 2nd layer of your skin, making your creations appear more vibrant and eye-catching.

Damage Tint

The Damage Tint mod adds a vignette around your screen when you’re low on health, but why is this important? Well, it can help create that layer of realism into your Minecraft experience by also alerting you of incoming dangers, whether you’re taking damage, or just low on health. Additionally, the Damage Tint mod allows you to customize the tint’s color to your preference whilst also offering you the option to enable a heartbeat sound when you’re low on health. This mod is perfect for those up for challenging adventures such as Hardcore or Battle Royale on Hoplite.

How can I use this mod in different scenarios?

Imagine you're in an intense battle and often forget to check your health. By enabling the Damage Tint mod, you'll get a visual alert when you're critically low on health. Additionally, by enabling Play Heartbeat Audio, it will play a heartbeat sound effect automatically when you’re low on health, giving you a chance to escape, recover, and rejoin the fight!

Item Physics

Vanilla Minecraft has its dropped items hover above the ground and rotate in place. However, with the Item Physics mod enabled, the items will fall to the ground and lie flat or at a slight angle. The Item Physics mod can be customized to your advantage, changing the rotation speed of the items and strengthening the illusion of your Minecraft experience being realistic.

Why should I use this mod?

The Item Physics mod isn’t just for looks but offers players performance benefits by rendering dropped items differently. This mod maintains smooth gameplay, allowing you to enjoy that immersive experience without risking performance loss.

Implementing Shaders in Minecraft

Now that you've enabled those cool Lunar Client mods, what else can you add? Well, we can implement shaders into our Minecraft world, helping the game truly transform into something unique.

Using Minecraft Shaders through Iris

Iris is a modification that improves Minecraft’s graphics and customization options, adding shader support and boosting your game's performance. With this mod, players are able to change the quality of their Minecraft world without sacrificing smooth gameplay.

Lunar Client makes adding shaders to your Minecraft world effortless, thanks to the Iris mod being pre-integrated into its fabric module. To get started, download any shader pack of your choice. We recommend browsing Modrinth for shader packs. Once downloaded, navigate to your .minecraft directory and drag and drop the folder inside the shaderpacks folder. Finally, go to your video settings, click on shaders, and select your newly added pack.
