Auroras

This mod significantly enhances the game's visual experience by adding magnificent northern lights to the Minecraft world. These light phenomena fill the night sky with bright shimmering colors, creating a magical and immersive atmosphere.

The mod works independently without requiring any shaders or additional modifications, making it completely ready for use in the standard game version. At the same time, it works perfectly with TerraFirmaCraft - a comprehensive modification that completely overhauls the survival mode to create a more realistic and challenging gameplay experience. Special compatibility with the Aether mod is also ensured.

Northern lights appear as dynamic light patterns that can take the form of curtains, rays, spirals, or flickering flashes. The color palette ranges from green and yellow shades to red, blue, and violet tones. The light effects constantly change shape and intensity, resembling softly swaying curtains.

Typically, northern lights appear in high-latitude regions near the Arctic and Antarctic Circles. By default for the main world, the equator is located at coordinate Z:10000, and the distance from it to either pole is 20000 blocks. Poles repeat every 40000 blocks. For example, northern lights can appear around Z:-10000 and Z:30000 with small random deviations, as well as in each subsequent pole zone.

By default, no specific biomes are required for northern lights to appear, but this feature can be configured independently. Many parameters of the light phenomena can be modified through configuration files: wave frequency, amplitude, color palette, and many other settings.
