In this video I'll be discussing a little-known feature of Minecraft Shaders which make the shadows align with the pixelated textures of the game. In my opinion this setting makes the shader shadows fit in much better with the overall pixelated look of the game. This is feature can also be found in Mojang's "Vibrant Visuals" bedrock Shader, and is now available to Java users as well. Check below for downloads links and more.
