Aurora Astral

 Aurora Astral is a cosmic-fantasy shader pack that transforms Minecraft’s sky into a living celestial world. Animated astral rifts tear through the night, a colossal planet rises behind the sun, and The End becomes an evolving galaxy filled with subtle cosmic fractures and energy.  This project offers two distinct visual style options: - **Aurora Fantasy**: Designed for a classic fantasy aesthetic with vibrant color palettes and a magical aurora vibe. - **Aurora Astral**: Focused on a deep cosmic experience with celestial bodies, galactic skies, and animated astral rifts. ------------------------- **[Aurora Astral](https://modrinth.com/shader/aurora-astral)** ------------------------------ **[Aurora Fantasy](https://modrinth.com/shader/aurora-fantasy)** ---------------------------                          - **Animated Astral Rift**: A layered cosmic fracture with flowing energy, distorted materials, and continuous motion across the night sky. - **Colossus Planet**: A massive animated celestial body positioned behind the daylight sun, naturally blending into clouds and atmospheric lighting. - **Cosmic Sun & Solar Halo**: A redesigned sun with adaptive lens flare, radiant atmospheric energy, and colors that transition through morning, noon, and sunset. - **Living Celestial Cycle**: Cosmic colors, illumination, and sky phenomena evolve smoothly throughout the entire day and night cycle. - **The End Cosmos**: Replaces the empty End sky with a moving galactic environment, layered cosmic materials, embedded fractures, and balanced atmospheric lighting. - **Weather-Aware Phenomena**: Celestial effects react naturally to rain and changing atmospheric conditions. - **Cosmic Reflections**: Astral light and night-sky phenomena subtly interact with reflective surfaces. - **Simplified Graphics Profiles**: Choose between Balanced for practical gameplay and Extreme for maximum celestial detail.  These estimates are approximate and may vary depending on hardware, render distance, game version, and world complexity. **Minimum Requirements** > GPU: GTX 1660 SUPER 6GB / RX 5600 XT 6GB / Intel Arc A580 8GB > > Target: ~30 FPS @ 1080p **Recommended Requirements** > GPU: RTX 3060 12GB / RX 6600 8GB / Intel Arc A750 8GB > > Target: ~50–60 FPS @ 1080p  **Aurora Astral Developer**: [n2bubble](https://modrinth.com/user/in2bubble) **Original Developer GitHub**: [Javier Garduno (KDXavier)](https://github.com/in2bubblejaviergcim) **Original Shader**: [MakeUp Ultra Fast](https://modrinth.com/shader/makeup-ultra-fast-shaders) **Modified Shader**: [Aurora Fantasy](https://modrinth.com/shader/aurora-fantasy) **Additional Credit**: [Entokito](https://modrinth.com/user/Entokito) **License**: GNU Lesser General Public License v3.0 (LGPL-3.0) Aurora Astral is an independent modification based on MakeUp Ultra Fast and is not an official MakeUp Ultra Fast release.
