About this project

What does Albedo add?

{width=1000 height=1000}

What is Albedo? Albedo is, quite simply, a coremod that offers some pretty special graphical utilities. Currently it is fairly small and untested, and is primarily centered around adding a framework for dynamic, colored lighting to the game.

This mod adds no functionality on its own, and is intended as something that other mods may add optional support for.

IMPORTANT: This mod is fairly invasive. In order to support its lighting engine, it needs to hook into a lot of rendering and perform some things that may not be supported on your system. Use the mod's in-game config to disable lighting if you encounter issues, and see if turning lights off fixes them.

KNOWN ISSUES (1.12.2):

Since OptiFine does a similar technique to apply its own shaders, OptiFine shaders and Albedo lights are not compatible. This includes the OptiFine "internal" shaders.
For as-of-yet unknown specific reasons, Hardcore Darkness' lighting changes will not work with Albedo. I will look into this in the future.
