FOOTAGE is a footage shader for Java that dresses the world in bodycam and VHS camera effects over realistic lighting, fog and shadows. It runs on Iris, is made by Skeeder461 and is based on Derivative shaders. The author pitches it as a heavy-looking pack that still stays well optimized.
Shader loaders and versions
- Iris: Minecraft 1.20 to 26.3.
Effects and features
The camera look is the point. Many bodycam and VHS effects sit alongside realistic lighting, fog and shadows.
- Global illumination, volumetric light, volumetric fog and volumetric clouds.
- Ray traced reflections, water simulation and shader grass simulation.
- Many bodycam and VHS effects, plus a dirty lens, depth of field and chromatic aberration.
- A detailed flashlight, shader birds and DLSS.
- Full surface rendering with resource pack support, and IPBR.
Performance
The author lists frame rates at a render distance of 12 chunks. An RTX 4090 reaches about 230 FPS, an RTX 2060 about 150, a laptop GTX 1650 about 130 and a GTX 650 Ti Boost about 50. A 2007-era 8800 GT manages roughly 10. These are the author's own figures, not a promise for your hardware.
Installation
- 1.Install Iris on Fabric or NeoForge, following the shader install guide if you have not set it up before.
- 2.Put the FOOTAGE .zip in your shaderpacks folder.
- 3.Open Video Settings, then Shader Packs, and select FOOTAGE.
The pack lists no required dependencies beyond Iris. Bedrock cannot run Iris, so this pack is Java only. If the pack fails to load, work through fixing shaders that do not work.
Questions about FOOTAGE.
3 questions
How do I install FOOTAGE?
Install Iris on Fabric or NeoForge, place the FOOTAGE .zip in the shaderpacks folder, then open Video Settings, choose Shader Packs and select it. Iris is the only loader the pack lists, and it needs no extra dependencies.
Does FOOTAGE work on Bedrock?
No. FOOTAGE is a Java shader pack that depends on Iris, and Iris is a Java mod that Bedrock cannot run. Bedrock uses a different shader format, so this pack will not load there.
Can low-end PCs run FOOTAGE?
The author lists about 50 FPS on a GTX 650 Ti Boost and about 110 on a GTX 1650 Ti at 12 chunks render distance. These are the author's own figures, so results on your hardware may differ, especially with ray traced reflections on.
