From the creators of Star Worm Equestrian Mod (SWEM), we bring a complementary mod which adds invisible lighting to any vanilla or SWDM block via a touch of magic!
SWLM is built to work WITH your torches and lanterns to make a build warm and safe without sacrificing aesthetics. (However, SWLM can be easily be used as a primary light source).
SWLM was originally created in 1.12.2, long before current Light Blocks. Further, SWLM blocks can be obtained in Survival.
For details, suggestions, and questions - check the spoilers down below or visit our wiki/discord!

SWLM Adds:
✮ Mineable Star Worm Cobble
✮ Star Worms
✮ Mortar and Pestle
✮ Star Worm Goop
✮ Glowing blocks!

✮ Star Worm Cobble

✮ Star Worms
✮ Mortar and Pestle
✮ Star Worm Goop
✮ Glowing blocks!
Add star worm goop to any vanilla block (now compatible with SWDM blocks!) on any tile in a crafting table.
Visit our wiki for the full list of available blocks.
// Shaders settings might need to be adjusted to not show SWLM blocks as hot/cold light.
// SWLM only affects vanilla blocks from vanilla and SWDM (for now)! Contact us to discuss compatability.
** Showcases show mod blocks/items not in SWLM. The showcase is ONLY claiming the lighting blocks and no other block, item, or design.
