This is for everyone. Modder that used PBR materials and Normal map for glTF models, should inform their users to watch this tutorial.

Run Minecraft and close it to make shaderpacks folder exist in your Game Dir.

Choose one of the shaderpack list below, and put downloaded shaderpack into shaderpacks folder.

• BSL Shaders
• AstraLex Shaders (BSL Edit)
• Complementary Shaders

Most BSL based shaderpack will work properly with MCglTF.

In this section, you need to use the Zip Archiver you familiar to fix entity.properties.

entity.properties is located at shaders of shaderpack zip file.

Extract entity.properties for editing as describe below with the desired text editor you prefered, and then put it back into the shaderpack zip file once finish.

Find this line

entity.10100=minecraft:item_frame minecraft:painting minecraft:glow_item_frame

Remove minecraft:item_frame and minecraft:glow_item_frame

entity.10100=minecraft:painting

What this patch done is preventing normal mapped model in the Item Frame have weird lighting result after Minecraft version 1.12.2.

vec4 specularMap = texture2DGradARB(specular, newCoord, dcdx, dcdy);

#ifdef PARALLAX
vec4 specularMap = texture2DGradARB(specular, newCoord, dcdx, dcdy);
#else
vec4 specularMap = texture2D(specular, texCoord);
#endif

normalMap = texture2DGradARB(normals, newCoord, dcdx, dcdy).xyz * 2.0 - 1.0;

#ifdef PARALLAX
normalMap = texture2DGradARB(normals, newCoord, dcdx, dcdy).xyz * 2.0 - 1.0;
#else
normalMap = texture2D(normals, texCoord).xyz * 2.0 - 1.0;
#endif

ao = texture2DGradARB(normals, newCoord, dcdx, dcdy).z;

normalMap = vec3(texture2DGradARB(normals, newCoord, dcdx, dcdy).xy, 0.0) * 2.0 - 1.0;

#ifdef PARALLAX
ao = texture2DGradARB(normals, newCoord, dcdx, dcdy).z;

normalMap = vec3(texture2DGradARB(normals, newCoord, dcdx, dcdy).xy, 0.0) * 2.0 - 1.0;
#else
ao = texture2D(normals, texCoord).z;

normalMap = vec3(texture2D(normals, texCoord).xy, 0.0) * 2.0 - 1.0;
#endif

In Minecraft Options/Video Settings/Shaders Packs…, select the BSL shader pack and then click Shaders Pack Settings….

In Shaders Pack Configure/Material, turn on Advanced Materials and make sure the Material Format match the mod that dependent on MCglTF you used. (In most case SEUS/Old PBR)

Optionally in Normals & Parallax, if you don't like Normal Map effect fade out when looking downward in first person, you can turn off Normal Dampening.

Now it is done. Enjoy the 3D models which provided by your Mod author that looked like it was coming from 3A Game.

This patch is applied to the AstraLex Shaders v51.0 and above, similar to the issue that had been described above.

In this section, you need to use the Zip Archiver you familiar to fix gbuffers_entities.glsl.

gbuffers_entities.glsl is located at shaders/program/ of shaderpack zip file.

Extract gbuffers_entities.glsl for editing as describe below with the desired text editor you prefered, and then put it back into the shaderpack zip file once finish.

Find this line

float skipAdvMat  =float(entityId == 10100 || entityId == 10002 || entityId == 10312 || entityId == 10315);

Remove || entityId == 10312

float skipAdvMat  =float(entityId == 10100 || entityId == 10002 || entityId == 10315);

What this patch done is preventing normal mapped model in the Item Frame have weird lighting result after Minecraft version 1.12.2.

In Minecraft Options/Video Settings/Shaders Packs…, select the AstraLex Shaders pack and then click Shaders Pack Settings….

In Shaders Pack Configure/Advanced Materials, make sure Advanced Materials is on and the Material Format match the mod that dependent on MCglTF you used. (In most case Seus PBR (Old PBR))

Then navigate into Reflections, turn on Specular Reflection and Rough Reflection.

Optionally in Shaders Pack Configure/Advanced Materials, if you don't like Normal Map effect fade out when looking downward in first person, you can turn off Normal Dampening.

Now it is done. Enjoy the 3D models which provided by your Mod author that looked like it was coming from 3A Game.

https://www.complementary.dev/shaders-v4/

In Minecraft Options/Video Settings/Shaders Packs…, select the Complementary Shaders pack and then click Shaders Pack Settings….

In Shaders Pack Configure, change RP Support to either labPBR (RP Required) or SEUS PBR (RP Required) based on the mod that dependent on MCglTF you used. (In most case SEUS PBR (RP Required))

Now it is done. Enjoy the 3D models which provided by your Mod author that looked like it was coming from 3A Game.
