Nox Lights

Minecraft: Neoforge 1.21.1

This mod adds various colored light sources to the game, alongside a couple other aesthetic and utility blocks and items like fog and flashlights. It is built exclusively for Neoforge 1.21.1, depends on Veil and Lodestone to function, and is (mostly) compatible with Sable sublevels.

Tips

Dyeing lights functions exactly like leather armor, making it compatible with mods like Dye Depot right out of the box and also allowing for complex color mixing.

Black dye simply makes the effects dimmer--there aren't any negative lights (yet!)

Several blocks have different functions if you place them while crouching, and have special toggles if you right-click them with themselves. Mostly this just toggles shadows, but the glitter and fog layers will change their size (1-16).

Some lights can be enabled/disabled with redstone.

The Industrial Flashlight will drain battery power as it is used. It uses FE, so any mod that can charge items will be able to charge it.

100% human-made. I have never and will never use AI in my mods, resources, icons or descriptions.

THERE ARE CURRENTLY NO RECIPES.


A note

I'm an indie mod author just starting out. I'm a novice, and there are bound to be bugs. Anything that is incompatible with Veil (some rendering mods have issues) or with Sable (which also depends on Veil) will also be incompatible with this mod.

Ideas and PRs are always welcome.
