Black sky glitch
ive been getting this error for the past year and i dont know how to solve it, it appears with all shaders that are high end and with low end shaders the clouds just disappear instead, i got no idea what causes it, ive played other versions of minecraft, without any mods etc and it just wont go away. i remember that there is a shader where in its settings i disabled something related to pbr and the sky would stop being black, as you can see the borders of things are pixelated and appear to show what the actual sky is behind them. please help me fix this

here im using bloop shaders
these are my specs:
Prozessor AMD 3020e with Radeon Graphics 1.20 GHz
Installierter RAM 16.0 GB (13.9 GB verwendbar)
This is a problem with those graphics drivers. One person was able to fix the issue by downgrading to a very old driver version—October 2022 in their case
Currently that is the only known fix
how do i do this?
i downloaded this and now i get this error and cant even boot up the game https://i.imgur.com/aig3UTa.png
neither do i know how to get an older version
cant find my graphics card
Sorry, I don’t have a solution
great, now i cant play minecraft anymore thanks
DDU then reinstall latest driver.
:yes:
Once done, there's one thing you could try, that is using the ForceGL20 mod.

No ideal if it'll solve the black sky, but it's something worth trying out.
i tried all this and nothing fixed it
Let me search the exact driver version that should work with your GPU.
didnt work
i downloaded a 2.0 version of the mod tho called "revamped"
because the other one isnt available for the version i wanna play in
Closest I can find that should work with your CPU is this:
https://www.amd.com/en/support/downloads/previous-drivers.html/processors/amd/amd-3000-series/amd-3015e.html
Scroll down until you find driver version 22.10.3, try that version and see if it works.
i already installed a driver from 3015e and it didnt work
22.10.3?
let me try that one
:yes:
do i have to uninstall anything before installing it?
Recommended to uninstall everything before installing a new one, especially when downgrading.
by everything you mean my current drivers right?
I suspect you installed a modern version instead of the one from October 2022, as requested.
Yes.
by using the device manager right?
That's one way, yes.
this?
deinstallieren means uninstall, uninstall device
That is the processor driver.
The one you should look for is the one that says graphics.
Further up in the list if I recall.
yeah the one that says Grafikkarten
ok i uninstalled it, do i have to restart my pc?
before installing the new driver
Depends. You could install a new one straight away.
Does your display driver get replaced with Microsoft Basic Display Driver? If so, then restarting should be fine.
i dont know where to check that
i restarted my pc anyway
i think ill install it
Good enough.
I may still be available for the next 20 to 40 minutes, so if you have issues within that time, I will still be able to help, to the best of my ability.
ok thanks
the game just closes while initializing
let me see if it works on a normal game without mods
yeah it launches
let me make an installation with just iris
Ah, ForceGL force closes because it detects ImmediatelyFast, which it is incompatible with.
You can safely remove that mod now.
i did
but it still closes
Time for Thanos Method™️ then.
wdym
it still doesnt seem to work
the game just closes while launching
whnever i have sodium or fabric api
If it just closes, can you share the game logs over?
yeah
its because of sodium
thats the log
You don't have Sodium installed. :ioa:
Iris requires Sodium to be installed.
i dont have iris installed but i have sodium
maybe i gave you the wrong log
i also installed axiom
No fatal error when it crash? Sounds like a native crash happened in this one.
thats what happens whenever i have sodium installed now
You got driver version 22.10.3 installed, correct?
yes i think i installed it properly
yes thats what it says
20.10.3
20? Not 22?
22
my bad
:yes:
You are unfortunately out of luck then.
bruh
Last ditch effort, downgrade Sodium to 0.6.0 and Iris 1.8.0, see if that changes anything.
they dont even have sodium 0.6.0 on modrinth bruh
0.6.1 or 0.6.3 it is.
Those should be paired with Iris 1.8.1.
nevermind i found them
says its not compatible with 1.21 mc
bruhhh youre telling me i can only play with sodium/shaders in one specific minecraft version? lol
If downgrading the driver doesn't yield any good results, I doubt doing anything else would go any better.
:yes:
if i update the driver now it will come back to the same gl error that popped up before
before i tried doing all this my minecraft worked perfectly with sodium and shaders except for the sky glitch wtf
how can i even revert back to that point
Display Driver Uninstaller, DDU.
Completely removes all traces of graphics driver from your install.
Very nuclear, so I suggest looking into videos on how to use it properly.
I don't use DDU because, well, my method of reverting GPU drivers is even more nuclear:
Reinstall Windows.
:linus:
Yet another native crash.
:yes:
Seems to crash the moment it starts loading in LWJGL.
well i managed to be able to run sodium again, but the black sky is still there
looks so funny, you can tell the sky is behind the black background
Back to square one.
Sorry if we couldn't managed to get it fixed.
These old broken AMD drivers :Sadge:
Next time i get a pc im gonna get a nvidia graphics card
Get a modern AMD GPU instead.
Me with my RX 580 sees no black sky issue.
:haha_yes:
AMD is really good, don’t let anyone tell you otherwise. Nvidia just has superior marketing (to the point of false advertising esssentially)
AMD just seemed to drop the ball when updating drivers for their ancient hardware
