About

Luminance is a library mod that is primarily designed to help other mods with shaders.

As a user, you should only need to install this if a mod requires it.

Features

    • These let post-processing shaders have more information about what's happening in-game.
    • Luminance comes with a bunch of these by default, but you can add your own too!
  • Adds shaders that have been used in previous minecraft versions.
    • Requires Perspective or Souper Secret Settings.
    • Luminance takes care of rendering shaders, so you don't have to!
    • You can check if Iris Shaders are enabled using Luminance.
      • This means you don't have to have Iris added to your development environment!
    • You can replace your ModMenu icon using Luminance!
      • Make your mod icon change depending on the time of year, or via a config option, anything's possible!
