I added Photonics support! Enabling real-time blocklight shadows and global illumination in Minecraft!

@Vuthakral Most ray tracing is real-time if it isn't an offline renderer. If you're asking if this is using hardware RT, then no, still software. But it's quite fast because of the accel structures photonics uses. But yeah this is voxel tracing specifically.

@SpacEagle17 Nobody else has asked it so I'm gonna be that guy: Is this a form of real time raytracing or is it the older stuff of GI like we saw before raytracing took the industry by storm?

@Assassin_Iraq_1 Java :)

@SpacEagle17 This is in Minecraft Bedrock ?

@atfrogman123 Yep totally fair

@SpacEagle17 Photonics is cool but the time it takes for the shadow to update makes it not great for gameplay, at this time, imo.

@popi8909 @LofiMeOw Haven't tested it with DH but there's no reason why it shouldn't work and I'd imagine it to be similar enough

@SpacEagle17 @LofiMeOw Do you also get similar result with DH? Is it even supported?

@popi8909 It's been a while since this got published, on discord I did upload it as well and there it isn't compressed, it's also in the YouTube video about that update and ofc already available for everyone to experience themselves in game

@SpacEagle17 I can barely see anything due to twitter compression. A zoom in on the details would be nice

Complementary Shaders with Euphoria Patches & Distant Horizons, but now with Ambient Occlusion and a smoother chunk fade Available now as a dev version :)

@popi8909 Yeah agreed... But maintaining voxy for so many versions would be too difficult

@SpacEagle17 An absolute shame it's not available on the Minecraft version that actually matters.

All of these aren't real Minecraft Chunks. It's Just Voxy

@NathanTheFunker Depending on the other settings you adjust and play on 1080p, not impossible

@SpacEagle17 Can it run smoothly on a GTX 1650?

@supdude051231 World space reflections are already a thing in Complementary

@SpacEagle17 Does it include reflection too? I remember using a shader and it had the support too and it added full reflection

@VenomGunnerRips Less than expected, actually. Which is crazy x.com/SpacEagle17/st…

@SpacEagle17 looks cool does it kill your fps?

@SyhixTV Already did :) twitter.com/SpacEagle17/st…

@SpacEagle17 All that remains is to do it 😎

@SyhixTV Someone else already asked me to upload it in full quality for a wallpaper haha

@SpacEagle17 The fourth screen a Windows wallpaper

@LofiMeOw Currently only in dev versions euphoriapatches.com/support but it will be available for everyone once the update is complete

@SpacEagle17 That's amazing! Where can I get these shaders? I'd love to arrange a modpack!

@PapaSubatomica Can't wait for you to try it out then! Currently only in dev versions but will be free in the release of Euphoria Patches 1.9.0 ^^

@SpacEagle17 I need this in my Minecraft :o

@LofiMeOw I can only say from my own experience, with Voxy which is also supported in dev versions and this, I get with default settings around 200fps at 16 render distance and voxy also default settings. I have a 7900xtx

@SpacEagle17 This is amazing. I'm interested in getting shaders and other resource packs/mods to "enbeautify" Minecraft. How high-end of a PC would I need to run this smoothly with, say, distant horizons?

@MaximumVS Thank you :)

@SpacEagle17 incredible stuff dude

@NioumMC Unfortunately only 1.21.11. the photonics dev will backport the shader API to 1.21.1 once it's more "finalized" which will be soon probably.

@SpacEagle17 yooooo is there 1.21.1 support?

@_TheChrishunk Still OpenGL

@SpacEagle17 Vulkan?

@Leave_MeBee It has gotten better but yeah XD The ReSTIR implementation fixed a lot of things but also has other issues, there isn't like a "perfect solution"

@SpacEagle17 now i just need photonics to not shit itself sometimes lol

@drefrajo Yeah, it does take a few hours to get here haha (definitely haven't been working on this nonstop for the past days, naaaah)

@SpacEagle17 stunning, crazy how good modded minecraft can look!

@Squarezum Minecraft dungeons was great when it came to lighting ngl, hopefully we see something similar when vibrant visuals comes to java

@SpacEagle17 Minecraft dungeons vibes
