About this project

What does Radonium add?

Static Badge

Overview

A mod that adds colored, dynamic lighting entirely on the client side. It also ensures the lighting is well-optimized and minimizes bugs.

One of Radonium's key features is optimization essentially, the mod combines high-quality lighting with optimized performance.

Configuration

You can easily configure the mod in-game using ModMenu and Cloth Config API. After installing both, simply find this mod in your mod list and click the configuration button. The mod offers a wide variety of optimization tweaks, including multithreaded particle rendering, occlusion culling behind blocks, lighting adjustments, and much more.

Future plans:

1. Add compatibility with the Vulkan mod. (Most likely it will be in the release).

  1. Add compatibility with the latest versions of Polytone. (Will be added in version 2.5).

  2. Light will no longer shine through blocks. (This will likely be included in the release or in the latest beta versions).

  3. Porting to 1.21.11, 26.2, and 26.3. And a potential port to NeoForge 1.21.11+.
