You should able to get 60fps with that card. Turn off vsync and set it to Max FPS. Turn off AA and AF if it is on. What's your GPU usage? It should be maxing out your card.

Are you using the 1.4.7 mod version with 1.5? Also, the rain effect is really cool and reminds me of Limbo, though not playable. lol

Hmmm. As far as editing the .fsh file goes it still won't let me
It's not MultiMC, even without the mod added into MultiMC it still reverts back to the original RGB values. I have no idea why..
I change the values, save it, and as soon as I go back into the .fsh to check they're right back to what they were.
The clear water is nice but sometimes I can't tell where it is lol... ._.;

A full version of Optifine isn't available for 1.5 which means the Karyonix ShadersMod hasn't been updated to 1.5 which means that SEUS doesn't work with 1.5
So it has nothing to do with 1.5, he probably needs to go into final.fsh and edit the brightmult, darkmult, and gamma values

Does this mean we can run SEUS/GLSL/Optifine 1.4.7 on Minecraft 1.5? It hadn't occurred to me to try that...

Frustrated EskimoNoise response in 10...9...

Such a cool mod/program. I only wish I could install it on my Mac.

Here's a totally bizarre idea, STOP USING MULTIMC (it's the only thing that's different to the 100s of other people who have no problem saving their configs)
MagicLauncher supports multiple configuration files without having to duplicate everything

x.x I just said it isn't multimc...multimc is basically the same thing as magiclauncher/modloader etc., I have similiar problems with other files on my computer that have nothing whatsoever to do with multimc associated mods. As I have previously stated it isn't a severe issue and doesn't warrant one losing one's patience over...I was just baffled and looking for some input is all.

Alright, so here's my situation. For some reason, I prefer how the colors and shadows from legacy v08 looks, but I really really love how the water shader from RC7 looks, so i've been using RC7, getting ~30 fps. However, I made a little server for me and a couple friends, and when i'm running that at the same time, I drop to ~18 fps, so I switched to v08.

Using my extremely basic Javascript knowledge I found the code in RC7's final.fsh to define the water shaders and the point where it is actually defined, and copied that into (a backed-up copy of) v08's final.fsh. I also copied RC7's gbuffers_water.fsh and .vsh into v08.

I wasn't really expecting it to work by just doing that, but I can't find any other code anywhere in any other .fsh or .vsh file which applies to the water shader.

So, apologies for the wall of text, but my question is: Do you know of any way to get RC7's water shader into legacy v08?

EDIT: Also, I wanted to add: Eskimo, I don't know your connection to Sonic, but you seem to be the only one answering questions, and you do it almost religiously. Just wanted to thank you for putting so much effort into helping a bunch of strangers who, I imagine, are probably dicks most of the time.

Pretty sure there's also some water caustics code in composite.fsh

Thanks, I see it now... unfortunately, my javascript knowledge is seriously basic, so I don't know where in the actual file (in the v08's files) to place the code. Everywhere I try, both composite and final just return invalid programs errors.

I have to say that mixing v08 and RC7 is not really something I considered doing, I know there's a water only shader which should work alongside v08 but you need to use a fairly old version of Optifine to get it running and you only get wavy reflections instead of ripples and all the other good stuff.

I only considered it because I don't really have access to anything else. I'm working with what I've got, you know?

Quote from EskimoNoise

If you're after performance rather than the look of v08 you might consider making a donation and getting access to the test previews of SEUS. The latest versions are quite a bit faster than RC7 thanks to recent developments on the Karyonix side of things.

I'd love to, but I can't afford much beyond bills and groceries atm. I'm not really after performance that much, it's just that the performance hit while running the server gave me and extra push away from RC7 and towards v08, which I already like. I just want the look and feel of v08 with RC7's water, and was looking for an easy way to accomplish that. Unless you have any ideas, it looks like that's not possible, so i'll just be patient and wait for the next update.

Someone must have spiked my coffee because it looked like you said you were prepared to be patient.

Since it's just text, with no tone or anything, I have no idea what you mean by that... is that a negative comment, a joke, i don't know. :/

EDIT: Oh great, I have 42 posts... now I can't ever say anything again.

Quote from EskimoNoise

Well look at the NOW! attitude of a lot of the people posting about 1.5 without thinking that just maybe somebody has already asked in the week since the update and you'll understand why I thought I was seeing things.
I thought exactly the same thing 227 posts ago (228 including this one)

Haha okay. I know how you feel... I don't really understand how people can be so asinine and feel so entitled to receive work as soon as possible from a guy who's only doing this in his off time, for the fun of it. I mean, aside from donations (and sometimes ad.fly links) I don't think karyonix or sonic are really making much money off of this. I'm always very appreciative of people who go out of their way to make other's lives better for little to no reward - which is why I hugely support ad.fly links.

Combine that with the fact that i'm already a very patient man with a lot of willpower, and yeah, I can wait for an update.

Is there screenshots for the Legacy Versions? BTW when I add SEUS v10 RC7 Ultra to my Shaderpack and opened Minecraft, it gave me insane brightness, even during night time. Any fixes for this? (Probably because i'm on Intel GPU)

And damnnnnnn!!! Epic shaders!

boy oh boy, of course the day I want to try this mod on a whim, it's unobtainable, hehe.

Amazing mod Sonic! And to credit you, here is where I used it. :3

I could play perfectly with the v08 shaders at good 40+ FPS, but now with v10 RC7 i only get 5-8. Someone may know what i could disable so it won't lag that much?

You could disable every extra effect he added in since v8. He added lots of stuff since then and that is why you get fps drop, but the next release (rc8) should have much better fps because he changed some stuff (i got development files (k25) and with rc7 i would get 15fps, now with k25 i get 55+ fps)

I can't find a 1.4.7 jar anywhere. It won't run (obviously) on 1.5 :/. Does anyone have a link to 1.4.6/1.4.7?

I've got this brilliant shader mod working on my Tekkit Lite installation and it looks beautiful, using the Sphax BDCraft textures with Parallex mapping
A couple of bugs I've found though, not sure if they're fixable by just tweaking some settings or not.

If you have something in your hand and look up at the sky or towards anything bright, or even towards blank space where chunks haven't loaded yet, you can see through whatever you're holding.

If you fly above the clouds at night and look down, any clouds below you will make the ground render as though it is broad daylight.

If you place a Junction Rail (not sure if this is from vanilla minecraft or not) it waves around as though it is a lillypad on water.
Just had a quick google search, seems this is from the mod "Steve's Carts 2". Still, is there any way I'd be able to edit a file to stop this object from waving like a lillypad?

I'm using the RC7 version.

Your boat looks absolutely amazing! How long did it take you to make? I've been trying to build a nice ship in my world, but it looks like a Duplo toy compared to that!

Can someone help me out? I was using the shaders perfect before the new release. However, with the new release, using any modified texture packs, everything is tinted a bright purple/blue. No matter what I do, I can't get this to go away. It is almost impossible to play without the shaders now, so I was hoping someone has a solution for this. I would be greatly appreciated.
