SwanSong Shaders
Experience a completely new shaders mod specifically designed for Minecraft 1.7.10 with maximum focus on compatibility! This project was developed from scratch to provide a fresh approach to graphical enhancements in the classic game version.
Compatibility with Other Mods
SwanSong successfully works alongside most popular client-side mods for optimization and graphics improvement:
- FalseTweaks
- Beddium
- Right Proper Lighting Engine
- Right Proper MCPatcher
- HodgePodge
- FastCraft
- CoreTweaks
- ArchaicFix
- BugTorch
- NotFine
Potential compatibility issues: The following mods may conflict with SwanSong:
- Any version of OptiFine
- Original ShadersMod
- MCPatcher: Forge
- Neodymium (it's recommended to use Beddium)
- Angelica (works only with certain modules)
Technical Features
This shader mod is an independent replacement for ShadersMod with initial support for shader packs compatible with OptiFine 1.7.10_HD_U_E7. Importantly, this is not a backport of Iris and not a direct continuation of ShadersMod or GLSL Shaders mod — it's an independent implementation based on their specifications.
Additional capabilities: As a bonus to the main functionality, you get improved font rendering, optimized screenshots, and a zooming function similar to that found in OptiFine.
Developers and License
The project was created by developers Ven and FalsePattern in 2025 and is distributed under the Open Software License, version 3.0. The logo was developed by Houstonruss with refinements from FalsePattern.
Testers: The project underwent initial testing by Bot, Brandyn, DarkShadow44, Houstonruss, Jss, matt-159, Rally, and UnicornBlood (in alphabetical order).
Based on: The work of original ShaderMod developers: daxnitro, id_miner, and karyonix.
