About this project
What does Sun Fade add?
Sun and Moon Fading
Ever played on a Skyblock and get annoyed by the Sun still being visible at the bottom of the world? This mod aims to fix that! After the Sun sets, it will slowly start to fade out, until it is no longer visible.
Same thing with the Moon

Fully Customizable
This Mod aims to be compatible with all kinds of worlds and playstyles.
Don't like the time the Sun fades? You change change that
Do you still want the Moon to be visible at all times? You can disable its fading

Compatibilites
Current Incompatibilites:
UnknownIt's Likely that this mod will conflict with many Skybox mods, as they'd both be touching the same code. Let me know if you run into an incompatibility and I'll try to see about fixing it!
Partial Incompatibility
Iris ShadersWhile there's no errors, the shaders override any changes this mod implements! But if you are using shaders, there should be some that provide similar effects as this mod
