Jurassic Beginning’s Shader Support

Jurassic Beginning’s — Shader Support

A dedicated compatibility mod for Jurassic Beginning’s.

Jurassic Beginning’s — Shader Support was created to improve compatibility between Biomes O’ Plenty, Farmer’s Delight, and Complementary Reimagined shaders in Minecraft 1.20.1. Its purpose is to help supported modded plants and foliage receive the intended shader effects, including waving vegetation, so the world feels more alive and visually consistent.

Normally, shader packs rely on predefined block mappings to determine which blocks receive specific visual effects. Since Biomes O’ Plenty and Farmer’s Delight introduce additional plants, leaves, grasses, crops, and other vegetation, some of these blocks may not be recognized by the shader’s existing mappings. This mod addresses that compatibility gap by adding relevant block IDs to Oculus’s in-memory shader mappings when a compatible shader layout is detected.

What Does It Support?

Biomes O’ Plenty leaves and trees: Adds supported Biomes O’ Plenty leaf blocks to the appropriate shader categories.

Ground foliage: Includes supported grasses, flowers, shrubs, saplings, and other Biomes O’ Plenty vegetation.

Tall plants and vines: Adds mappings for supported upper plant sections, vines, and similar foliage.

Additional Biomes O’ Plenty vegetation: Includes supported floating plants and potted vegetation.

Farmer’s Delight crops and plants: Adds shader compatibility support.

Original Shader Integrity

Complementary Reimagined is not recoded, modified, or repackaged by this project. The mod is designed to work with the original, stock Complementary Reimagined shader ZIP. Instead of editing the shader files, it adds the necessary block mappings in memory through Oculus when the compatible shader layout is detected.

This approach keeps the original shader pack intact while providing additional compatibility for Biomes O’ Plenty and Farmer’s Delight. No modified version of Complementary Reimagined is included with this mod.

Requirements

Minecraft 1.20.1

Minecraft Forge 47.x

Oculus 1.8.0

Biomes O’ Plenty 19.0.0.96

Farmer’s Delight 1.3.4

Complementary Reimagined r5.9.3 

Important Notes

This is a small, purpose-built compatibility component developed for Jurassic Beginning’s rather than a standalone foliage or shader overhaul. Its functionality depends on the supported mods and compatible shader mappings being present. Other versions or shader packs may use different mappings and may not be compatible.

This project is independent and is not an official release of Biomes O’ Plenty, Farmer’s Delight, Oculus, or Complementary Reimagined. Those projects remain separate and are subject to their respective licenses.

Project status: Created for integration and testing within Jurassic Beginning’s. Static checks and mapping tests have been performed, but complete in-game compatibility should not be assumed for every plant or shader configuration.
