shader fails to load completely; no chat message. 1.20.4
iris doesn't show the failed to load error, I had to open the console in the launcher to see the failed to load error. the shader pack also drags into the shader pack selection screen as a "valid shader pack".
the shader doesn't technically support 1.20.4, but I fail to see how there could be much difference between 1.20.1 and 1.20.4.

Solution
apologies for leaving you on read for so long, I decided to "do my own thing", so to speak
me looking at the log sent me down a rabbit hole of downloading colormatic for the colormap shaderpack (a really good idea, apparently!), among other mods listed here (like the skybox mod) https://optifine.alternatives.lambdaurora.dev/. this has made the pack work AND work better than it otherwise would've. beta lighting! hoo-ray!
only slight differences that I can't seem to fix are the skybox not really working, and the smooth lighting on the water while still retaining smooth lighting elsewhere, which there doesnt seem to be a mod to turn off specifically. oh well. if there's possible help with those two issues, I'd appreciate it. otherwise, I've solved the issue.
