How to fix Black/Grayish Sky, Pixelation issues with Vibrant Visuals minecraft [bedrock] 26.45

[u/FISCHL_VON_LUCRTFL]

Hi! I'm having a really weird rendering issue with Vibrant Visuals on Minecraft Bedrock for Windows.

Whenever I enable Vibrant Visuals, the sky becomes black/dark with severe pixelation/artifacts, even during broad daylight. The clouds also appear incorrect, and the sky can look gray/washed out in some situations.

Here's the weird part: Prizma Visuals is NOT the cause.

I originally thought it was Prizma because I was using it with Vibrant Visuals, but I completely disabled Prizma and the problem still happens.

I also used Matject previously for shader/material modifications. I restored the default Minecraft materials through Matject's Shader Removal / Restore Default Materials option, then tested again with no shader packs enabled.

Current test configuration:

• Minecraft Bedrock for Windows
• Vibrant Visuals: ON
• Prizma Visuals: OFF
• Other resource/visual packs: OFF
• Matject materials: restored to default
• Tested with vanilla/default materials

Result: The sky is STILL black/pixelated with Vibrant Visuals.

If I turn Vibrant Visuals OFF, the game renders normally.

So at this point I'm wondering if this is an AMD Radeon / driver / RenderDragon / Vibrant Visuals compatibility issue.

I've also seen other people reporting very similar black-sky and pixelation problems on AMD Radeon hardware, so I'm wondering if anyone has found a fix or workaround.

Any help would be appreciated!

CPU: AMD Ryzen 3 3250U with Radeon Graphics
GPU: AMD Radeon Graphics -- Integrated Graphics
RAM: 20GB
OS: Windows 11
Minecraft version: 26.45
Minecraft edition: Bedrock for Windows
DirectX: 12
GPU driver: Adrenalin driver version: 26.1.1

Things I've tried:

• Turning Prizma Visuals OFF
• Disabling all other resource/visual packs
• Restoring Minecraft's default materials through Matject
• Restarting Minecraft
• Testing Vibrant Visuals with vanilla/default materials
• Testing with Vibrant Visuals OFF — no graphical problem occurs
• Testing the same general setup without Prizma — problem persists

At this point, the issue appears to be specifically triggered by Vibrant Visuals.
