A Darker Atmosphere
Ominous Trials just got a little more ominous! This pack brings more moody atmosphere to the Trial Chambers through more oxidized copper bulbs. The base vanilla game has many spots in the structure which don't use the "copper degredation" processor, consequently leading to fully lit chambers, and also has a lot of brighter bulbs that overpower the dimmer ones in general.
High-Lighting Features
This not only brings overall more contrast within the chamber, but gives more reason for some players to scrape the oxidation off of copper bulbs-- a mechanic which was highlighted during Minecraft Live 2023. There is also more attention drawn to trial spawners that are now more often in the dark, which emit light when activated.
