minimaps don't use shaders
because there's no point
I'm guessing you ran the iris installer and kept iris install selected
Hey
I wanna ask if I can use iris with a small tiny winy cute minimap
if you want to use fabric mods with iris rerun the installer with fabric install selected
and then put the mods you want in your mods folder
I'll do that
I mean JourneyMap certainly doesn't allow raytraced renders of the map, maybe there are other maps that do
you can use shaders with minimap mods installed
does that come with iris shaders?
No no, I mean that you can have mini map mods installed and use shaders on or off and it won't break the minimap but that minimap will never have realistic lighting itself
only the actual world around you as the player, the mini map just displays the world in a flat fashion and that's it
I apologize if i didn't understand a point but to be in the same page, am I going to use iris or other loaders?
`
iris doesn't affect minimaps in anyway
they are seperate, shaders don't affect minimaps, mini maps don't affect shaders etc.
so you can't get realistic lighting on the minimap image itself (the top down view of the world). It only shows a low resolution view of the world
Yeah I understand but my question in the first place is how can I install it?
I'm new to the modding community
Oooh you mean how do you install Iris or that and any other mods you want to use?
Yeah to make it work with iris
in the Minecraft folder on your computer there is a "mods" folder, you just drop the mods in there and everything will run. There aren't any incompatibilities between Iris and minimaps.
if you want to use JourneyMap, you download the .jar file of that mod and put it in there, you do the same with the Iris mod and run the game
I'll do that then i will let you know how it goes
