# Eclipse - A Bliss Edit
Bliss is already one of the best and most feature rich shaders out there, yet I still wanted more...
It started out with smaller features, but then the additions just kept piling up.
Notable changes/additions compared to Bliss unstable:
+ Custom moon orbit with possible eclipses
+ Additional cirrus & cumulonimbus cloud layers (WIP)
+ Distant Horizons chunk fading
+ Moon Texture with phases
+ Improved Puddles, Snow Overlay and Rain Ripples
+ Better mod support
+ Better shader-side (hardcoded) emissives
+ Lightsource with shadows on the main end island
+ Rain & thunder cloud coverage and daily weather
+ Much better lightning strikes with clouds lighting up and shadows
+ Caelum (Arda Craft) support
+ Emissive Ores
Note: With default settings there is at least one guaranteed eclipse per ingame year.
## Eclipses <sub>(why else would I call the shader Eclipse??)</sub>
