MxSxC1 Weather Pack (Sleet)

  • v104 Heavier Rain & Snow/Sleet Improvements
  • v101 Lighter Rain & Small Snow/Sleet Glitches (hard to notice)
  • v100 Anything before this had "NoParticles" which is now separate pack.

Adds Custom Rain, Snow & "Sleet" - Low Resolution Arena Version

This is what is uses in almost all our videos, and every MxSxC1 Arena video.

The latest version of this pack is the official vesion to use with our "The Dark Is A Cold Lonely Shadow" maps, data packs, texture packs, and The Arena.

NOTE: Removal of Rain, Splash, Buff, Bubble, Etc Particles - has been split out to "NoParticles" pack from v100

Sleet is a variation on snow specifically designed for shaders and custom lighting effects. This is designed and tested to work with around 25 versions of the most popular shaders using Iris only.

Notes/Issues:

This was designed for "The Dark Is A Cold Lonely Shadow" and "MxSxC1 - The Arena" with custom texture packs, Iris, and specific shaders in mind.

It can be intensive and cause slow down on some shaders and settings, and the shaders need to be tweaked in a lot of cases.

The latest version is much much improved from the High Res Version, and despite being lower resolution, looks better.

This pack deliberately uses techniques which will not work with everyone. It works with most shaders, and in Vanilla, but will look "wrong" with some setups shaders and settings. We have tried to make it work with as many as possible, and this is a more balanced version.

The effects which make it look wrong in some cases are entirely what make it work in others, and is what we are looking for. This produces the "sleet" effect.

This pack is designed to work at night, with bright lights in the background. It is tweaked for PVP to give visibility over large distances. Though this has been tuned for daytime, because of this night time and distance/visibility focus, it can look weak in daylight.

Another version of pack with Crisp Snow doesn't have this effect and is being tuned for day time without the Sleet effect. Way down the back log.

This has been performance tested and tuned for the Arena battles with flashing lights, flashing beacons and glowing effects at midnight.

The rain can look a little thick (now improved since v099), and not as much work has gone into it. A better version with white/grey (and also pink) rain is there, but needs some work. The focus here is on the snow/sleet.

A lot of time has gone into the tweaking of this and the awesome feedback is much appreciated.

We have better but more intensive versions, used for specific scenes, and some insane variations which may release in future, but they are not optimised like this one.
