Solas Shaders
Solas Shaders (1.20.4, 1.19.4) is a new Minecraft Java Edition shaderpack which aims to provide stunning visuals at a low performance cost. It was originally intended to serve as Prismarine Shader’s successor. Solas is probably the first shaderpack to finally achieve the goal of super fast and FPS-cheap colored lighting and global illumination in Minecraft. Both are done with bloom which costs little performance while maintaining good visual appearance. Most other shaderpacks with 3D volumetric clouds have a problem of them leaking into closed spaces like caves or mountains. Solas fixes that problem by toggling a cloud shadow check in cases where a closed space is detected, thus essentially turning volumetric clouds into volumetric light. Another problem a lot of shaderpacks have is shadow light leaking and peter panning which is not present in Solas.
