Bringing life to Minecraft since 2015, Beyond Belief Shaders (BBEPC) was created by the talented Daniel Rodriguez Moya. This stunning shader pack focuses on delivering breathtaking weather effects and cinematic touches like Depth of Field. After being left behind by its original creator, Dakotah2468 stepped in and breathed new life into the project with full permission, elevating the shader pack to new heights of beauty and realism.
Wet effect
- Emphasizing weather effects, the BBEPC Shader pack creates an effect of wetness on the ground and surface when it rains.
Motion Blur
- The Shader pack provides advanced motion blur effects suitable for quick movements and will make Minecraft more similar to FPS games.
Improved Water
- One of the shader pack focuses on improving water by giving it a physics-based movement, enhancing its clarity, and adding various effects like light refraction and landscape and sky reflection, among many others.
Gentle and Natural-looking Lighting
- The BBEPC Shader mod provides one of the best lighting detail we have seen in a Shader pack, as it features a realistic level of lighting for both night and day.
Gorgeous Weather and Storm Effect
- One of this Shader pack’s many highlights is its beautiful effects on stormy weather. When there is a storm, the area will be covered with fog, the rain will become absolutely heavy, the ground will be wet and muddy, and visibility will be so low that it becomes more challenging. The way it should be!
Depth of Field
- One feature of this pack is the depth of field which gives it a solid cinematic effect by blurring everything outside the point of view and focusing only on what the user is looking at. Although beautiful and perfect for taking screenshots and cinematics, it is taxing on the PC and is better left for high-end PCs.
Calm Waving of Grass and Leaves
- Waving flora and foliage in Shaders is a bit common nowadays, but this pack features smooth waves that are very relaxing and calming on the eyes.
