Description
You have probably noticed it yourself but its never actually pitch black in minecraft. Even if you are in a cave with no torches you will still be able to see something independent of your gamma setting. This mod changes this, it removes the minimum block & sky light so if there is no light source its actually dark.
Usage
After you install this mod it will be in mode 0, there are 3 different modes and they can be changed in the config file:
0. There is no minimum block & sky light
1. There is no minimum block light
2. There is no minimum block light & the sky light is dependent on the moon phase
There are also some other options in the config file:
- "Dark Nether" : "Whether the minimum light of the nether should also be removed"
- "Dark End" : "Whether the minimum light of the end should also be removed"
- "Dark Twilight Forest" [1.7.10] : "Whether the time in the Twilight Forest should be fixed to midnight instead of dusk"
- "AlternativeNightSkylight" : "In Mode 1 & 2 the skylight has a slightly blue tint, this option replaces that with a slightly green/yellow tint"
- "Dimension Blacklist" : "A list of dimension ids separated by "," in which Hardcore Darkness will not take effect"
If you install this mod on a server all clients will have to have Hardcore Darkness installed. Clients will also be forced to use the config file you specify on your server.
Feel free to use this mod in a modpack
I have this weird problem
I use this with mist biomes
And the fog is like this weird blue vignette, is this fixable in the config?
Update?

Please make 1.7.10 version up to date too. I really like the new feature that can adjust the skylight level but in 1.7.10 it hasn't this feature :'(
how do i change the settings
In reply to generaldova:
Haven't tried the mod myself yet, but I assume you need to look through your computer files in your minecraft directory to find the config file. If you play Minecraft with the Twitch launcher or whatever, there should be a button somewhere that takes you there.
If you use this with the weather mod, when it becomes dark at night when its a new moon if using mode 2, you won't be able to see storms until lightning flashes are seen, this makes it a lot more scarier at night, you won't even be able to see what is coming until lightning flashes are seen.

awesome! cant wait to see it.
Is there a way to disable this underwater? I love the mod, but it's impossible to see even 1-2 blocks below the surface.
Unfortunately, It doesn't work. I'm using 1.12.2 and the darkness after installing this mod is the same, even though it's installed by forge.

Working fine by me...
This finally makes Dynamic Lighting a real requirement.
Forge is a really heavy API for this cool mod. I'd recommend you Rift. It also supports 1.13 and I'd love to play with this mod! :)

hi again may I request to add this warm lightmap for this mod as a config option? just like the green type of lighting ( warm lightmap that looks like shaders if you have the time
In reply to eleonora_97:
hello, it seems having gamma locked on serverside causes client to crash on attempting to open video settings
Working on a skyblock pack, any chance you could add a config option to disable the mod based on some form of trigger? Even making it compatible with game stages per player?
Hey Lumien, and chance of a config to set the ambient light level of the Nether? Or other dimensions? I love the hardcore darkness of the Nether, but I'd like to adjust it. <3
This mod together with dynamic lights is awesome.
Being forced to hold a torch in your hand to see during nighttime and just see what the torch lights up near you is really scary.
