MaterialBinLoader (MBL 2)
MB Loader is a small launcher that lets Minecraft: Bedrock load shader packs that use .material.bin files, without patching the game APK. It works by injecting a loader so the game can read those materials from a normal resource pack at runtime. That keeps your base install clean and makes trying new shaders simple.
Why use it
- Works with recent Bedrock versions, including 1.20-1.21. You keep the official app and run it through MB Loader
- Available on Google Play and free. You need a purchased copy of Minecraft to run it. Not affiliated with Mojang.
- v1.1 adds fixes and auto-updating for older shaders, so many packs load with less manual work.
How to use MaterialBinLoader
- Install MB Loader.
- Import your shader
.mcpackinto Minecraft and enable it in Global Resources. - Launch Minecraft from MB Loader and play. Many guides suggest packs that include a
/renderer/materials/folder with.material.binfiles
- The app was started by community devs and continues to improve. You will see it credited to bambosan and contributors
- iOS is not supported. This tool targets Android only
This setup gives you shader testing with fewer risks and quick rollbacks when a pack breaks after an update
