About
Distant Shaded Panoramas is a collection of Minecraft panorama resource packs that lets players use scenic views from the game and supported modded worlds as their panorama backgrounds. Available sets include Minecraft 1.20 and 1.21, Trial Chambers and Luki’s revised Trial Chambers, and the Pale Garden in clear daytime or midnight conditions. The collection also features locations from Saturated, The Bracken Pack, Deeper and Darker, and The Corners, including Dormis, Otherside, Communal Corridors, Hoary Crossroads, and Yearning Canal. Other pictured destinations include the Nether, the End, Void, and Bracken Pack dimensions such as Glacium, Omnidrome, Panacea, Pax, Sanctum, the Brine, the Faewild, the Underdark, and Varskspace. Some Overworld panoramas vary by time of day and weather, with examples spanning clear or rainy daytime, noon, night, and midnight scenes. The panoramas were captured with Complementary Unbound shaders and Euphoria Patches, using a 10-chunk vanilla view range alongside high-quality Distant Horizons rendering at 64 chunks.

Security
No harmful code found
We checked what is inside its files, without opening them in the game.
Why we show this: a resource pack cannot run programs, but its file can hide one. Our checks look for known signs of harm. They cannot prove that a file is harmless. In the grade: malware means no grade.
How we checked
- FilesWe download the files from Modrinth or CurseForge and look at what is inside them and what their code can do, without running them. Fixed rules tell what is harmful.1 latest file, for a recent version. Recent versions: those released in the last 2 years, plus 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, among the most played in modpacks.

- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth, where the author declares that the project reads or edits things on your system outside the game. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when this applies.Nothing declared about your system outside the game.
Privacy
Sends nothing
A resource pack has no code that can connect to the internet, so it cannot send anything about you.
AI
No sign that AI was used to make it
We looked for AI tools in its texts, files and images and found none.
Why we show this: some players and servers avoid projects made with AI. Not in the grade: using AI does not tell whether a project works well or is kept up to date.
How we checked
- Author on ModrinthThe disclosure form on Modrinth. Since 13 Aug 2026, Modrinth's rules require it when a substantial part of the code is AI output, when an asset is mainly AI output, or when the project or its page relies on generative AI.No AI content declared.
