This pack uses the vanilla shader system, it's not compatible with Iris or Optifine!

To use the pack you need to enable the Fabulous! graphics mode in the video settings.

VanillaPuddingTart

VanillaPuddingTart (an abbreviated and then incorrectly unabbreviated version Vanilla Path Tracing) is a resourcepack that adds global (non-screen space) lighting effects to the game, such as:

  • Colored light emitting blocks
  • Bounced lighting
  • Metals and specular effects
  • Realistic sun lighting
  • Realistic block shadows

Using texture packs

The pack comes with a built-in texture pack but if you have the time it's recommended to use a third party one.

Texture packs need to go through a conversion process to work with VPT, please follow this guide if you want to do this. This process is heavily RAM-limited, so packs with large textures might fail (I recommend at most 128x).

Compatibility

1.) The pack is incompatible with any mods that might change how the game draws stuff, notable examples:

  • Optifine
  • Sodium
  • Rubidium

2.) Because of the nature of vanilla shaders the only supported version is the last major release (e.g. 1.20). The pack may work on older versions but it's not guaranteed to.

3.) The minimum supported resolution is 1024x768 and the maximum is 3840x2160, going below the minimum or above the maximum in either direction (e.g. 1000x768 or 3840x2500) will cause glitches.

Known issues

Please don't report these:

  • Water is broken (will be fixed later)
  • A handful of blocks don't have built-in support
  • Lava is broken (will be fixed)
  • Lava doesn't emit light (probably can't be fixed)
  • The end and nether doesn't work (probably can't be fixed)
  • Emissive parts don't always follow the rotation of the blocks

Early access

Early access versions are available one month before the public release for patrons.
