QUALITY PROFILES

BRIGHTNESS
- Dim: darker, closer to Minecraft's original lighting

ADVANCED SETTINGS
Each major effect can be tuned separately: shadows, god rays, reflections,
atmosphere, clouds, bloom, End detail, shadow strength, and opaque leaves.

5.0.0 FIXES
- Opaque Complementary-style leaves with solid leaf shadows
- End Portal block-entity ID fix and animated galaxy-vortex redesign
- End sky rebuilt with spherical stars instead of a visible cube/grid projection
- Brighter, readable sign text
- Texture-first non-water translucent geometry so boats stay clean
- Stronger and farther shadows, scaled by profile
- Five actual quality profiles and three brightness modes

DEBUGGING
In the Iris shader screen, enable debugging and send the first compiler error
if a specific Iris build reports one.
