Hi @Meidde, that's a bug with Oculus/legacy shader compatibility.
You'd have to debug Oculus, as 1.16.5 is not supported anymore.

I downloaded the version that is in your post from Oculus, but if it is no longer supported, I imagine that one day it was already supported, could you perhaps help me look for a version of distant horizons and oculus that would work in Forge 1.16.5 ?

I own an RPG server and would really like to record videos based on the distant

@Meidde Apologies, I misspoke, 1.16.5 was never officially supported by the Oculus nor Iris authors.
You could try asking the person that made the backport fork if they're able to update their fork or you could try making your own backport.

For those passing by, I'd appreciate upvotes on modrinth/knossos#1740, which is an issue that suggests adding a Distant Horizons filter for shaderpacks on Modrinth. Having a Distant Horizons filter on Modrinth would make this list easier to maintain.
