Beamless Beacon
This resource pack only hides the beacon's beam for cosmetic purposes, giving your world a clean and minimalist look.
This resource pack alters the Minecraft shader core code to completely remove the visual effect of the beacon beam. By modifying the beacon beam fragment shader (fsh) file, this pack ensures that the beacon's light is no longer rendered in the game, providing a cleaner visual experience.
Modification:
#version 150
void main() {
discard;
}
In-game:
Expand#version 150
in vec3 Position;
in vec4 Color;
in vec2 UV0;
uniform mat4 ModelViewMat;
uniform mat4 ProjMat;
out vec4 vertexColor;
out vec2 texCoord0;
void main() {
gl_Position = ProjMat * ModelViewMat * vec4(Position, 1.0);
vertexColor = Color;
texCoord0 = UV0;
}
Compatibility: Vanilla Minecraft
Key Features:
- Removes the beacon's beam effect
