The Kappa Shader is the high-end shaderpack in my lineup and tries to deliver the most appealing results without resorting to complex techniques like voxelisation. It is generally considered a realistic shaderpack, although it takes its own shortcuts and liberties due to which it is by no means accurate in the sense of exactly recreating real life lighting configurations.

Key Features

Kappa Shader is known for its advanced and fairly unique Volumetric Clouds, which have been a cornerstone of its atmospherics and outdoor-visuals for a couple major versions now.

Version 3.0 introduced Screenspace Path Tracing, which is also being used for light emission to allow for a wider variety of lighting colors within the screenspace limitations.
