Will Intel graphics card users EVER be able to see the new shadows and shaders?

otherwise it lags to much :(
so i either have shaders, or anti aliasing. i cant use both ; ;

Intel processors are fine. Intel graphics cards can run blockland fine. Shaders do not work on Intel cards and there's a bunch of OpenGL errors in the console. This is the problem. Even though Intel cards are all integrated, you could probably run shaders on minimum or low on Intel cards like other integrated cards, if it worked.

This is not true at all. Intel cards are built for accelerated 3D and support shaders. Most of the latest integrated chips can run shader expensive games fine (even my stuffty card can do moderately well on shader expensive games). The issue here is whatever Blockland is doing is too expensive for the Intel cards. I would take a guess that it's the shadow passes.
