Mod Notes
Iris 1.8.14-beta.1 Shader loader

Complementary Reimagined r5.8.1 Shaderpack (Euphoria-patched, included)

Key config already applied

  • Flywheel backend forced to flywheel:indirect — fixes the Create throttle-lever "ghost image" artifact under Iris shaders.
  • aero-shadow-fix bundled — fixes the white balloon ghost.
  • Iris is preset to load the included Complementary Reimagined shaderpack.
  • irisflw replaceCheckerboardTexture = true for correct textures under shaders.

After import

  • Enable Fresh Animations in Options → Resource Packs (ships alongside 3D Skin Layers).
  • If shaders look off, verify the Complementary pack is active in Options → Video Settings → Shader Packs.

Rebuilding the pack (maintainers)

python3 build_mrpack.py regenerates the .mrpack from the dedicated "Reaper's Sky - dev" instance at ~/.local/share/PrismLauncher/instances/Reaper's Sky - dev/.minecraft. Set INSTANCE (and OVERRIDES) at the top of the script to point at a different instance.

Known limitations

  • Create Aeronautics has known visual issues under Iris; the bundled config/mods resolve the most visible ones (balloon + throttle lever). Occasional artifacts on animated Create instances may still appear.
  • Shader uniform warnings in the log (_flw_cullData, flw_frustumPlanes) from Veil are cosmetic and do not affect rendering on the indirect backend.
