Builder’s Quality of Life Shaders Mod (1.21.4, 1.20.1) (QoL) adds a few features to make the game look nicer, without going completely overboard. It doesn’t have volumetric lights, bloom, or even shadows; but it does have a handful of features that blend in quite nicely with vanilla, and are cheap to do computationally. As such, it should (hopefully) be very good on framerate.

Obviously dynamic lights are required for any decent shader pack, and QOL is no exception! Additionally, unlike placed lights, the color of held lights depends on which item you’re holding. Try it out!

Grass has random humidity variations. No more monochromatic grass everywhere!

Note: All of these features can be disabled in-game, in case you don’t like some of them.
