MagicLoader

Shaders, ray tracing, and performance tools for Minecraft Bedrock

MagicLoader brings shaders, hardware ray tracing and performance tools to Minecraft: Bedrock Edition on Android. It runs the Minecraft you already have installed and adds an in-game Magic menu, so you can change everything while you play.

SHADER PACKS • MagicRT: soft sun shadows, volumetric light, water reflections and caustics, clouds, rain with wet ground and puddles, and underwater effects • VanillaRT: the game's own look, lit with ray tracing • MagicVanilla: the standard look at no extra cost • Import your own packs, including Java Edition shader packs (experimental)

RAY TRACING On phones with hardware ray tracing, MagicRT and VanillaRT can trace: • Sun shadows that soften with distance • Torch and lantern light, each light with its own shadows • Bounced light (global illumination), coloured by the blocks it comes from • Reflections on water and shiny blocks, and refraction through water • Light shafts under water, and coloured light through stained glass Every effect has its own switch on the RT tab, along with the ray tracing resolution and ray counts, so you can balance quality and frame rate.

RESOURCE PACKS AND WORLDS • Import .mcpack, .mcaddon and .zip resource packs and addons, turn them on or off and set their order • PBR texture packs: their metal, roughness, normal and height maps show in the shaders • Import .mcworld worlds, or open them with MagicLoader from a file manager or a download

PERFORMANCE • Quality, Balanced and Performance presets • Distant terrain: low-detail land past your render distance • Render distance beyond the game's slider, a frame rate limit and dynamic resolution

IN-GAME MAGIC MENU Switch packs, ray-traced effects, time of day, weather and image settings without leaving your world.

REQUIREMENTS • Minecraft: Bedrock Edition installed from Google Play (MagicLoader does not include the game) • A 64-bit phone with Android 10 or later • Ray tracing needs a phone with hardware ray tracing; other phones get the shaders without it
