ZoomBright

by Mightyyy · on Modrinth

Lightweight client-side zoom + full-bright mod for Fabric — smooth hold/toggle zoom with scroll wheel, non-persistent brightness boost from 100% to 1000%…

Which Minecraft do you have?

Every version of the game needs its own build. Pick yours, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game. This mod is built for Fabric only.

Minecraft 1.21–1.21.1Newest
Minecraft 1.20–1.20.1

⬇ Download for 1.21–1.21.1 ⬇ Download for 1.20–1.20.1

I don't know my version or loader

Open the Minecraft launcher and look at the profile you play on — it names both, like fabric-loader-1.21.4. The version also shows in the bottom-right corner of the game's main menu.

No loader in the profile name? Then it's plain Minecraft, and these mods won't run — you need Fabric or NeoForge installed first.

ZoomBright 🔍✨

ZoomBright is a lightweight, purely client-side Fabric utility mod that combines the best parts of zoom and full-bright mods into one seamless package. Designed with an ultra-lightweight math engine, it achieves perfect, frame-independent animations without needing heavy libraries or bloated configurations.

Hold or Toggle: Configure zoom to activate while holding a key or on a toggle press.

Cinematic Mouse Smoothing: Automatically scales down your mouse sensitivity as you zoom in for precise cinematic panning.

Dynamic Increments: Use dedicated hotkeys to bump brightness up from 100% up to 1000% dynamically on the fly.
Auto-Reset: Automatically resets back to your normal vanilla brightness when disabled or when exiting a server.

📊 Minimalist HUD
