About this project

What does Darkness Engine add?

Darkness Engine zeroes out the lightmap's sky brightness and ambient color. The effect is scoped to the overworld dimension.

Essentially, this does the same thing as 'True Darkness' and 'True Darkness Refabricated'. However, this mod doesn't have fancy day-night cycles yet. It's planned, though.
