Which build do you need?

This mod ships a separate file for every mod loader and every version of the game. Pick both, then download — the wrong build installs fine and then does nothing in the game.

Mod loader

Minecraft version

⬇ Download for 1.21.6 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.5 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.4 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.3 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.21.5 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.4 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · Forge
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.

✦ Overview

Luminous Blocks adds glowing variants for every glass block and their pane forms.

They emit light when placed, making them ideal for glowing builds, ambient lighting, or underwater architecture. Compatible with beacon beams.

The icon overlay is to distinguish them from normal glass, this doesnt affect the placed blocks.

✦ Crafting Recipes

The Luminosity Wand allows you to right-click any Luminous Block to change the light level.
Three light levels: low (5), medium (10), and high (15).

Stick + 1 Glowstone Dust → Luminosity Wand

Crafting recipe for the Luminosity Wand

Crafting is shapeless, and light level is the same no matter which ingredient is used. All Luminous Glass is crafted by combining any glass block with a light-emitting ingredient.
