Glowtone: Shaderless Shaders

Glowtone

Not the block! A utility mod providing easy resource-pack block and item emissives without bloat. Check the Gallery for beatuiful examples from our built-in resource-pack!

How it works

Glowtone is simple. Textures with a suffix of _glowtone_emissive are used on performant, auto-generated model overlays. Light level can be set on a per-texture basis via .mcmeta like the following example:

{
  "glowtone_emissive": {
    "light_emission": 15
  }
}

And last of all, render layers for block can be overrode on a per-block basis via glowtone_block_render_type_overwrites/<block>.json, like so:

{
  "render_type": "cutout"
}

Use the built-in resource-pack for Vanilla emissives, or bring your own! Take a look at our pack for example useage if you want to set up compatability for your own mods or want to make resource-packs.

Does not mess with shaders. Should work out-of-the-box with Iris and Core Shaders!
