Why cant i use minecraft shaders

There are two main reasons why you cannot buy or download shaders in Minecraft for Xbox Series S:

The function is still in development. The support for Shaders was added in the preview of Minecraft in Xbox in March 2023, but is not yet available in the full version of the game.

Microsoft has said that you are working to improve the support for Shaders in Minecraft for Xbox Series S. Microsoft may add the purchase of shaders to the Minecraft market in the future, but there is still no specific date for this function.

I remind you that I am only a user like you, who helps other users based on my skiing and experience.

Hi Texer_X, my name is Oskayra and it will be a pleasure to help you.

I tell you in advance so that there are no misunderstandings, this is a public user to user support forum. We are users who help other users. We do not work for Microsoft and we have no access to any user account.

Here are some things you can try to solve the problem:

Make sure your console is updated with the latest software version. You can check the software version of your console in the configuration.

Check your Internet connection. Make sure your console has a stable Internet connection.

Restart your console. This can solve some minor problems.

If you have tried all these steps and you still can't use shadows, you can get in touch with Microsoft's support to get help.

Shaw support is still in development for the Xbox S/X series. Microsoft may solve current problems with shadows in a future update.

I hope the information is helpful.

Kind regards,
Oskayra.

I dont think you understand, let me re phrase, they added SHADER support on the Minecraft Preview but you cant OFFICALLY buy or download SHADERS on minecraft XBOX

Hi there! This is Virginia O.

I understand that you are experiencing issues with Minecraft that won't open.

I apologize for the inconvenienced this has caused you. I will do my best to help you.

Based on the information you have provided, sounds like the BetterRenderDragon Shaders may have caused an issue with your Minecraft installation, leading to freezing at the Mojang Studios loading screen.

Please remove shader files manually. If the shader pack injected files into your game, simply installing won't remove them. Navigate to your Minecraft installation folder and manually deleting any files related to BetterRenderDragon.

And then check for conflicting mods or shaders. If you have other mods or shaders installed, they can be interfering with the game. Kindly launch Minecraft without any mods to see if it works.

Next is to check if there's an option to verify or repair game files from the Store. This can help restore missing or corrupted files.

Then check GPU settings. If you have an NVIDIA or AMD GPU, kindly make sure Minecraft is using the correct graphics processor.

Thank you for your cooperation.

I would use caution as it could be construed as modding the game as you are changing it. Certain games do offer mods through the game itself. Any work around would definitely be scrutinized.
