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 1.21.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · Fabric⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · Forge⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · Forge⬇ Download for 1.21.1 · NeoForge⬇ Download for 1.20.1 · NeoForge
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.

Smooth Light

Smooth Light makes every light change in the world gradual instead of instant.

Vanilla Minecraft switches lighting in a single frame: break a torch and the area goes dark immediately, place one and it's instantly bright. Smooth Light replaces these jumps with short, smooth transitions.

Examples

How it works

No new blocks, no fake light sources and no client/server desync. The mod tracks per-position transitions of light emission and opacity directly inside the light engine, on both the client and the server, stepping them towards their target values over a few ticks. The final lighting is always exactly what vanilla would produce.

Compatibility


Smooth Light (RU)

Smooth Light делает все изменения света в мире плавными вместо мгновенных.

Ванильный Minecraft переключает освещение за один кадр: если сломал факел, то вокруг мгновенно темнеет, поставил — мгновенно светло. Smooth Light заменяет эти скачки короткими плавными переходами.

Примеры

Как это работает

Никаких новых блоков, фейковых источников света и рассинхрона клиент/сервер. Мод ведёт по-позиционные переходы эмиссии и светопроницаемости прямо в движке света, и на клиенте и на сервере, пошагово приближая их к целевым значениям за несколько тиков. Итоговое освещение всегда в точности совпадает с ванильным.
