Since it's not possible to update 300+ shaders manually and automation was possible, I thought that I'd take the honor and create a script that's able to automatically convert all of the shaders to be cross-compatible with Vulkan. And change the graphic pack versions to version 4 of course.
Also, the script has some nifty testing code which compiled every shader as OpenGL and Vulkan, but for that see the details that I've written below.
**Here's the script that I've made to do all of this. No manual edits were needed:**

Add: Scaling of world map
Add : 16:10 resolutions
Add : x2 SSAA vert res for 21:9, 48x9
Fix : Better alpha for x2 Subres, rounds to native x2 if possible
Accidentally applied a suggested fix to the wrong game. Reverted that and applied it to the correct game. Also changed the description of the performance pack slightly so that people know what it does. Could probably be more conclusive about what it does. Looks like a regular shadow resolution pack to me.
TPHD QL tweaks aka, sunday gaming delayed
Resolution
* Sharper, unscaled blur fixed. See contrasty note
* Resolutions 4k and above scale sub viewports 75-> 50% of the main res.
7680x4320 is now 30 fps stable on a 1070, SSAA looks sweet.
* Added some off-aspect custom res with horizontal res x2. Good for SSAA
fixing shimmering as it's mostly horizontal in TPHD
Contrasty
* Sharper, unscaled blur fixed. Note, contrasty must be pre-selected at
start to override same shader in resolution folder
* Minor tweaks to cold setting
Fancy FX
*Added option to disable blur, just keeping other tweaks active.
Realized that half scaling sub-view port mostly replaces fancy fX :/
*Tweaked to somewhat scale, tries to emulate original look by default.
Ie 4x res = 4x blur "qualitative look" (not the same as nr of passes)
*Added "defocus" looks blurrier by scaling incorrectly, masked by more
draw passes. This is similar to the old default
Not happy about the results of moving blur from res folder, too many
drawbacks as quality of scaling really needs to be per-setting.
Will probably deprecate if things start to break again. Maybe global
variables in the future?
