About this project

What does Gamma Plus add?

Gamma Plus

See in the dark, without the eyestrain. A lightweight, client-side brightness utility for Fabric: fullbright, adjustable night vision, and lighting that adapts to your surroundings on its own — all working correctly under shaders.

b


Brightness that goes further than vanilla

Minecraft's brightness slider stops well short of actually useful. Gamma Plus takes it from 0% all the way to 1500%, lifting dark and mid tones without blowing out anything already lit. One keypress, no world edits, no cheats.

Night Vision that keeps your colours

The potion effect washes everything into a flat green haze. Gamma Plus applies night vision as an adjustable blend from 10% to 100%, so you can dial in exactly as much as you need and keep the scene looking like Minecraft.

Lighting that adapts on its own

This is the part you stop thinking about. Gamma Plus measures the light actually reaching you — torchlight plus sky light adjusted for the time of day — and eases the brightness up as it gets dark, then back down when it doesn't. Walk into an unlit cave and it lifts. Light the place up and it backs off. Sunrise brings it down on its own.

Transitions run on a critically damped spring, so there is no popping, no flicker, and no snapping between states — and because it is framerate-independent, it feels identical at 30 fps and 240.

Real capture at midnight. Nothing was touched but the toggle.

Built for shaders

Plain brightness changes do nothing once a shader pack takes over rendering — which is why most fullbright mods quietly stop working with Iris. Gamma Plus detects an active shader pack and switches to driving the shader's own night-vision uniform instead, with the same smooth ramp. It keeps working when other mods don't.


Controls

Key Action
G Toggle Gamma Boost
N Toggle Night Vision
L Toggle Dynamic Lighting
K Open the settings screen

All rebindable from Options → Controls → Gamma Plus.

Settings

s

Every value is adjustable in game, with tooltips explaining what each one does:

  • Gamma Level — how far the boost goes, 0%–1500%
  • Night Vision Intensity — 10%–100%
  • Dark Level / Bright Level — how bright Dynamic Lighting aims for at each extreme
  • Transition Speed — snappy or cinematic
  • Full Boost Below Light / No Boost Above Light — the light levels the ramp runs between
  • Torch Influence — how much your own torches hold the boost back
  • Check for Updates — on by default, and switchable off

The settings screen needs no extra mods. If you happen to have Cloth Config installed, a richer tabbed version with per-setting reset arrows is used automatically instead.


Compatibility

  • Client-side only. Nothing is sent to the server, so it works on any server, vanilla or modded, without installing anything there.
  • Iris / shaders — fully supported, see above.
  • Mod Menu — optional. K already opens the settings.
  • Cloth Config — optional. Upgrades the settings screen if present.

Requirements

Minecraft 26.2 · Fabric Loader 0.19.0+ · Fabric API · Java 25
