About this project
What does Colored Light add?
Colored Light
Colored block light for Minecraft. Each light source tints the blocks around it in its own color, and stained glass colors the light that passes through it.

Features
- Colored lights: torches, lanterns and fire are orange, soul fire is blue, redstone is red, froglights match their color, and sea lanterns and beacons are cool white. Nearby colors mix.
- Stained glass: light through stained glass takes the glass color.
- Dynamic lights: with Wick or LambDynamicLights, held items, dropped items, burning mobs, blazes and glow squids give colored light.
- Block Colors: set a color for any light, modded ones included, with sliders, a hex code or presets.
- Settings: Color Intensity, Glass Strength, and an option to turn off the glass tint.
- Performance: the color is added in the shader, so chunks are never rebuilt.

FAQ
Where are my colors saved? In config/coloredlight.json. You can share this file or add it to a modpack.
Do I need a dynamic lights mod? No, it's optional.
Embeddium 1.20.1 logs a warning about a mod changing its internals. That's Colored Light adding color to Embeddium's terrain shader. It's harmless.
