Question 1

Do I need to install Focal shader on the client or the server?

Accepted Answer

The client only. There is nothing to install on the server, so it works on any server you can already join.

Question 2

What licence is Focal shader under?

Accepted Answer

GPL-2.0-or-later, as stated by the author on the platform we synced it from. Check the project's own page before redistributing or bundling it.

Question 3

How do I install Focal shader?

Accepted Answer

Install the matching loader first, then put the downloaded file in your mods folder and start the game. The loader, the shader pack and Minecraft all have to be on the same version, which is the usual reason a mod does not appear in game.

Question 4

Where do I download Focal shader safely?

Accepted Answer

From the author's own page on Modrinth, which is where the data here is synced from. MCReference never mirrors, re-hosts or repackages a file: every download button points at the original source, so you get exactly what the author published.

Question 5

Which Minecraft versions does Focal shader work on?

Accepted Answer

The author has not declared a supported version in the metadata we sync, so there is nothing here we can state as fact. Check the project's own page before installing it, and treat an old shader pack with no declared version as untested on modern Minecraft.
