Mellow

• Added depth of field effect
• Tweaked bloom to make it less blinding

• End auroras now respond to the new end flashes
• Fix some bugs relating to DH
• Fix some bugs not relating to DH

If you are updating from a version BEFORE v2.0, please reset your shader settings

• Fix Ambient Occlusion on AMD hardware
• Ambient Occlusion now works with distant horizons
• Added Aurora Borealis. By default they appear in snowy biomes at night
• Fix a LOT of bugs relating to distant horizons

If you are updating from a version BEFORE v2.0, please reset your shader settings

• Fix shader failing to load on AMD hardware
• Add flipped image reflections, enabled by default on the "Fancy" profile

This version is incompatible with configs made for previous versions. Please reset your shader settings after updating!!!

Color options

• All the options relating to colors have been moved to the new "Colors" tab
• In this tab, you can select predefined color schemes to easily change the way your game looks!
• There are only three available for now: Default, Vanilla and Choc v7
• I plan to add one color scheme per major update from now on
• Color sliders are now relative to the selected color scheme. This was a necessary change to make color schemes work within the limitations of the optifine pipeline.

Better Anti-Aliasing

• Added SMAA, an advanced anti-aliasing method that leaves the image sharper than the other methods that were present in Mellow
• It is used by default in the "Fabulous" preset, alongside "Denoise only" TAA
• FXAA has been removed, since it doesn't have any upsides over SMAA

Other important changes

• Water now shows the vanilla texture a bit
• Crops will now wave
• Godrays are more concentrated around the sun
• Vibrance & exposure have been lowered a bit, to make the shader easier on the eyes
• Made some small optimizations & bugfixes

• Fix FXAA crashing the shader on nvidia hardware
• Update zh_CN translation
• Include some changes that I forgot to include in v1.5.5
