1.19 any version of 1.19 will work with Minecraft 1.19.3 however Shader specs aren’t necessarily updated with every version and yet still work so for example 1.16 packs can still work in 1.19 so don’t be turned off from a shaders pack just because it’s not available for Minecraft 1.19 so if

Official OptiFine download page and at the time I’m recording this OptiFine 1.19.3 is still in beta so that means it’s not here unless you click on preview versions but if you don’t have preview versions and you just have a version listed out like this go ahead and use that one

Right as you can see the layout’s the exact same once you click on preview versions but if you don’t have preview versions just use the one that’s there because it’s more up to date and if the numbers are different you have a different version number anything like

That that’s a good thing because it means it’s more up to date and less bugs nonetheless under preview versions here we do have this version we always want to click mirror that’s just going to bypass a lad there so if we click on mirror it takes us directly to the

The title as you can see in the bottom left it does nevertheless we can now go ahead and minimize our browser and let’s move all of this to our desktop it’s not going to live there forever just until we get it installed to do that click the

Little Windows icon in the top left of my screen I’m in the bottom of your screen or bottom center screen on Windows 11. 7 downloads open up the file explorer by my search will work here type in downloads there we go open up file explorer and then what we want to

Do is on the left hand side scroll down to this PC click on that and then you have this downloads folder open that and there we have OptiFine BSL shaders and makeup Ultra fast drag and drop all of these to your desktop for ease of use now first things first we actually want

To start off with OptiFine right to do that right click on OptiFine click on open with click Java and click ok but Nick I don’t have Java or you do have Java and your icons don’t look like mine or if you don’t have Java and your icons

Are broken basically if one one you don’t have Java in that open with menu or two your icons don’t look like mine how can you fix it well you need to download Java 17. Java 17 is required for Minecraft mods obviously shaders and OptiFine are Minecraft mods so you need

Java 17. it’s also required for Minecraft servers so it’s kind of a win-win for starting Minecraft servers I should say so come here again in depth guide on our website it covers everything covers issues you may have it is the most in-depth guide for getting Java for Minecraft once you’ve got that

Though you may still need to run the jar fix and what the jar fix is going to do is take all the Java files on your computer and Link them back to Java making them work together so all those jar files it’ll link them back to Java

You need to get Java 17 first then run the jar fix and then your icons will be fixed everything will look like mine here and most importantly we can get OptiFine installed again doing that right click click on open with click Java and click OK that opens up the

OptiFine installer what’s great about the OptiFine installer is it’s pretty simple in and of itself just click install and it will install now the only reason this won’t work is if F1 you have Minecraft or the Minecraft launcher open if that’s the case close out of both of

Those close out of the OptiFine installer reopen it and then click that install button again or two you’ve never played Minecraft 1.19.3 before if that’s the case go play it literally just start it open it to the main menu and then once you’re on the main menu close out

Of it come back open up the outfit installer and click install and you’ll get this OptiFine successfully installed you can click OK it’ll close out of the OptiFine installer and you can delete the OptiFine installer we don’t need it anymore now let’s get our shaders packs

Installed to do this we want to open up the Minecraft launcher and then we want to open up Minecraft with OptiFine by default I’m going to have a profile selected here so if we look here next to the play button we will be able to see that there is an OptiFine profile that

Most importantly has 1.19.3 Dash OptiFine on it if you have that awesome click Play Click play again and Skip forward in this video until I get into Minecraft however if you don’t have this here click on installations up at the top and make sure modded is selected you

Can see I unchecked modded mod it disappears OptiFine disappears anything modded is gone now we click on mod it again and there it is Click play Click play again but if you still don’t have OptiFine or don’t have the 119 3 version of it click new installation now I’m

Going to name this shaders 1.19.3 because that’s what we’re doing in this video and then most importantly we want to click on the version drop down box and then in this drop down box we want to select release 1.19.3 Dash OptiFine let’s go ahead and select that

I’m also going to change a resolution I’m assuming that so you can see once we get in game now let’s go ahead and click create in the bottom right and we have this new shaders 1.19.3 profile with the correct version of OptiFine 1193 OptiFine under it hover over this click

Play Click play again and now Minecraft will open up with OptiFine up and running the hard part’s over that’s the hardest part getting OptiFine once you’ve got OptiFine it’s super easy to add shaders let me show you how to do it from the Minecraft main menu when we’re

Here what we want to do is click on options video settings shaders so again that was a little fast let’s do it again from the main menu click options video settings shaders once you’re here it’s actually incredibly easy to install just click shaders folder in the bottom left that’s

Going to open up your shaders folder and then in the shaders packs folder here just drag and drop any shaders packs you want to install so just take them from your desktop and drag them drop at them into this folder once they’re in this folder what we want to do is close out

Of it and there they are in game now most likely you don’t have your shaders pack selected to select it just click on it right like so it will reload Minecraft and then boom there we go it is activated one way of knowing is you’ll have all of this unlocked over

Here as well as a shader’s options button in the bottom right so if we go ahead and zoom into Minecraft we will actually be able to see that there’s a lot you can do in shaders options you can change the lighting atmospherics change your profile so you want a little

More performance a little higher FPS change the low profile of this pack now every pack is going to be different some don’t even have mini shaders options at all but some do and that is worth noting here because it is a great way to improve FPS with shaders let’s go ahead

And jump in game you’ll see that shader’s packs is working but you can also change your shaders in game as well and I want to show you that so once we’re in game your shaders pack is running we’ve got Shadows we’ve got you know the sun we’ve got you know

Volumetric clouds the water oh that’s it’s looking good it’s looking good but what if we want to change our shaders pack well just go ahead and hit escape and then go into options video settings shaders so just like the main menu go into options video settings shaders and

Now this time we can change to another pack so we click on makeup Ultra fast it’s going to reload Minecraft in the background click done and boom now we are on makeup Ultra fast it’s kind of hard to see the difference but there is a difference as you can see the clouds

Are a bit different with colors volume metric and this goes this one’s a bit more square and the Shadows are a little less pronounced one thing that we can really do though is go into our shaders options yes these can even be activated in game and turn them down to shadowless

Now this is going to be weird but it’s going to remove the shadows as you can see why would you want this I don’t really know but it really increases your FPS I’m getting over 200 FPS right now with this shadowless mode so nevertheless that’s how you can get
