Have you ever struggled with the F3 menu, striding the world and examining each block to ensure that the light level is high enough that mobs cannot spawn there? Only to inevitably miss a spot and find that a skeleton has out-skilled you while afk?

I certainly have! So I created the Visible Light Levels resource pack, compatible with most versions of minecraft.

This handy pack lets you quickly grasp which blocks are safe, dangerous, and "iffy", all using vanilla shaders and a simple 3 file resource pack.

Any blocks with a light level > 1 will have a faint white square highlighting them.

Any blocks with a light level near 0 will have a faint red square highlighting them.

Any blocks with no light will be left with a faint black square.

The intention of this pack is that it can be left on and easily ignored, unlike other packs of its kind which cover the spawnable or non-spawnable blocks in glaring colors and patterns.

Credit to Vanilla Tweaks for the inspiration to use vanilla shaders in this way

Does NOT require Optifine

Will likely have issues with shader-altering mods like sodium, optifine, etc.
