Underwater Torches
Does it also bother you that you can't place torches underwater?
This Mod fixes the problem!
Underwater Torches is a lightweight Fabric mod that allows you to place all types of torches underwater. Torches will stay lit and continue to emit light even when submerged!
Features:
- Place regular torches, soul torches, redstone torches, and all their wall variants underwater
- Torches emit their normal light level even when waterlogged
- Fully compatible with server and client – required on both sides
- Full Fabric 1.20.1 + 1.21.1 + 1.21.4 support
How it changes your experience:
- Light up ocean monuments, underwater caves, and shipwrecks with regular torches
- No more need for sea lanterns or glowstone just to see underwater
- Build underwater bases with proper torch lighting, just like on land
- Redstone torches work underwater too, enabling submerged redstone builds
