EPILEPSY/PHOTOSENSITIVITY ALERT this shaders have stuff that might make u feel weird but i have an option to help w it:3
if u see any grammar or wtv mistakes, perdon me, i'm rly sleepy by the time i'm writting allat thisMakeUp: Dead Days
Hi I'm Alex, I don't know much about making shaders, in fact this is my first shader ever, recently I was playing two things.
-
Kane & Lynch, both 1 and 2.
-
A roblox game I was just messing around with on roblox studio (it's literally a prototype of Kane & Lynch but for roblox).
I got obsessed by that gritty and brutal thing seen in Kane & Lynch, the unlikeable characters that for some reason I found it a bit real? not quite like gta where you either got a funny or serious character just doing whatever people asks them for money and power, I felt like actual people who didn't like or cared for each other, but desperately needed each other, I got obsessed by that gritty and "ugly" reality of the game, so I decided to simply create a reshade preset (yes you can do it in mc idk why i know that) based off that, but that idea got quickly ditched because of how heavy and unoptimized and how actually ugly it was, so instead I've watched a couple of videos, and I started modifying light weight minecraft shaders, why instead of making my own?
-
I'm dumb
-
It's easier I suppose.
3.I got a shitass pc, which can't do a thing besides mc and some older games sub 2015 (i got an rx 550 4gb, i7 2600 and 16gb ram (pretty decent, FOR A DECADE AGO, or nahh ig it was bad when it got released as well))
And so I did, I started modifying it till it looked that way, the way it's on the website, and thus MakeUp: Dead Days was born, got it? Dead Man, Dog Days, yhhh it's a pretty bad title, but enjoy :>
I'll leave what I changed below.
what's actually in it
Real quick — most of the heavy lifting (shadows, reflections, ambient occlusion, volumetric clouds, bloom, water, basically all the "why does this actually look good" stuff) isn't mine. That's Javier Garduño's MakeUp Ultra Fast Shaders, I just found a lightweight base that could actually run on my potato and started messing with it from there.
What I actually added on top:
camera shake, cause handheld footage isn't steady grain + scanlines, tape noise basically extra vignette cranked up contrast and desaturation on top of what MakeUp already does a color tint, cooler in the shadows warmer in the highlights, trying to get that old camcorder sensor look jpeg/video compression artifacts (yeah, like that reshade effect that is heavily unoptimized), blocky compression, color bleeding, banding, all that a pillarboxed frame, black bars on the sides, like an actual old camcorder recording a blinking REC dot a date stamp — year's always 2007, never changing that, non negotiable — but the month and day actually pull from your pc's real clock a clock, actual hour:minute:second, also pulled from your real clock, not minecraft's fake day/night one a battery icon in the corner cause I thought it'd be funny/fitting
Everything above is its own on/off switch or slider in a "Kane & Lynch" tab in the shader options screen, so if you don't want the HUD stuff or whatever, just turn it off, none of it's glued together.

Base shader is MakeUp Ultra Fast Shaders by Javier Garduño (LGPL v3.0). I didn't touch the actual lighting/shadows/reflections/color stuff, that's all him, I just slapped a camcorder on top of it.

requirements(or maybe not coz it worked on 1.21.1?)
minecraft 1.20.1 Iris
also forgot to mention, I tried to make it look like a 360/ps3 game, ik ik, lg, but yhhh, I'm no pro
All Versions
+ Add Version
Auto exposure that breathes, white balance that drifts, veiling glare, haze, lens warp and low light ISO noise.
Color banding, interlacing, tape hiss, a noisy band at the bottom, and chunkier JPEG blocks.
The vertical CCD smear got rebuilt twice so it doesn’t just flash, and there’s lens grime, wipe streaks and floating dust.
The REC timer, the date stamp year and the clock are all configurable.
The battery now finally works, as you get hungry, the battery's life decrease with you hunger bar, till it's red or there's nothing.
glitches
Tape glitch bursts, dropout streaks and random vertical lines.
A glitch when you die and one when you get hit. The hit one has 5 different looks so it’s never the same twice.
Low health is now a glitchy breakup instead of a red tint.
You can choose if glitches sit on top of the vignette or under it.
rain
I rebuilt it from scratch, and it’s light based now (hard to see in the dark, visible near lights), and it has ground mist and droplets on the lens. Puddles were added, then removed because they weren’t good(idk why im even mentioning this lmao).
flashlight
It’s better now, with a bright center and a softer outer glow. It doesn’t turn everything white anymore, and it has a beam you can see and a flicker option(i still don't like it though).
new stuff, all off or optional or wtv that means
Death Lens is in the Lens folder: fisheye, vignette and chromatic, basically a skate. camera or an unrecord bodycam btw it’s off by default.
Underwater is now murky, with a color filter, real 3D particles and light shafts.
Infrared night vision is off by default, grey or green.
POM and full labPBR support are there too, POM is off by default.
Photosensitivity safe mode turns flashing stuff off or idk it just changes it, it’s off by default.
and now there's a better menu:> it's more organized ig
defaults changed
TAA is off now.
Night is brighter.
Clouds are volumetric dynamic.
The flashlight defaults are a bit stronger.
The clock uses minecraft time by default.
ATTENTION, whoever is reading this and hates ai, i'm really sorry, but I used ai to speed up the things, cozz GODDAYM, i am not spending 6 months of my life trying to make sth as complex as this, this was the most complex thing i have ever done, and if anyone cares, i'm sorry for taking 2 months to release a proper ver, but this was the only way, i have no way to learn how to code properly, audhd, idk stuff that ppl use to study just doesn't work w me, it's sth i can't explain and i'm not trying to be the fallout ny's "creator" with all that ego and everything, it's just a little thing i did w help of ai in this ver, hope not do it again, hope i won't have to release another version, i'm really sorry yall:<
I Lost Ya Lost Ya Lost Ya -Bernard Sumner, August 1982
the clock, it wasn't working, now it is(one tracks in real time n another tracks mc's hour (the one where it's 20 minutes each or wtv lol)).
Now there's a round sun and moon, coz why not.
And now it has a flashlight, it's not rly useful, but it makes the night brighter, or any place brighter, it's just a bit weird, I don't like it though. It has two options, one u gotta crouch to activate it, and another one it's always on.
