How do I install Xiao Reimagined Visuals?
Open the .mcpack file with Bedrock so it imports, then enable Xiao Reimagined Visuals in your resource packs and turn on Vibrant Visuals. Those are the creator's four steps, starting with downloading the file from the CurseForge page. On Windows a double-click imports it, and on phones and tablets you open it with the app.
Does Xiao Reimagined Visuals need Vibrant Visuals?
The creator's install steps end with turning on Vibrant Visuals, and the CurseForge summary describes the lighting as cinematic lighting for Vibrant Visuals. Enable Xiao Reimagined Visuals in your resource packs first, then switch Vibrant Visuals on. No other dependency is listed for it, so those four steps are the whole setup.
Is Xiao Reimagined Visuals available for Java?
No. It is a Bedrock resource pack and Java cannot load it. The pack imports as a .mcpack file, which opens with Bedrock by double-click on Windows or by choosing to open it with the app on phones and tablets. Java players need a pack made for their own format.
