Dynamic Lights [Server] [Forge/Fabric/Quilt]

About the Modification

This server-side mod and datapack for Minecraft versions 1.17-1.21 adds dynamic lighting from various items and creatures. Instead of the static lighting that was in the game previously, now torches, lanterns, and other supported objects will actually illuminate the space around them.

Main Features

Using light blocks added in update 21w13a, the mod allows items and creatures to emit light in real time. Some items react to water - they can turn on or off when entering liquid. All enchanted items automatically emit light level 6, and under certain conditions some enchantments can create lighting level 9.

The modification works completely on the server side, but can also be installed on the client for single-player worlds.

Installation

Download the mod file in .jar format and place it in the .minecraft/mods folder. For access to global settings, it's recommended to install MidnightLib along with Dynamic Lights.

Management

To open the in-game menu, use the commands /trigger tschipcraft.menu or /function #tschipcraft:menu. The menu has Reset and Uninstall buttons.

Compatibility

This datapack follows the conventions of Smithed and MC Datapacks Discord Server, ensuring compatibility with other modifications.
