About this project

What does lumaLight add?

LumaLight

LumaLight is a client-side visual mod for Minecraft 26.2 and Fabric. It adds colorful lighting, texture-aware outlines, selective bloom, and a bright cartoon atmosphere without requiring a shader pack.

Features

  • Colored lighting generated from luminous block textures
  • Automatic support for compatible modded blocks and resource packs
  • Outlines for terrain, entities, first-person hands, and held items
  • Warm sunlight during the day and cool moonlight at night
  • Biome-aware fog, sky, clouds, haze, sunsets, and weather colors
  • Selective bloom and cartoon-style post-processing
  • Water rims, highlighted leaves, projectile trails, and light sparks
  • Visible-surface ore outlines that do not reveal ores through walls
  • Colored outlines and animations for dropped items
  • Smooth transitions without sudden light pop-in
  • Performance limits for areas containing many light sources

Configuration

Press U in game to open the complete settings menu. The key can be changed in Minecraft Controls.

The menu includes visual presets, individual effect controls, performance settings, custom colors, and a complete reset button.

Mod Menu is optional and only adds a configuration button to the mod list.

Compatibility

LumaLight detects modded content through block properties, rendered textures, Fabric tags, and Minecraft base classes instead of hard-coded block or biome IDs.

The mod is client-side and works on vanilla servers. External shader packs disable conflicting screen-space effects automatically.

Requirements

  • Minecraft 26.2
  • Fabric Loader 0.19.3 or newer
  • Fabric API
  • Java 25
