Description

Hardcore Darkness (Fabric)

Hardcore Darkness recreates the pitch-black nights and fog tuning of the classic True Darkness mod for modern Fabric. For shaders, I suggest tweaking Complementary as this mod doesn't affect them.

Fireflies!

Features

  • Configurable darkness per dimension plus optional moon phase handling (config/hardcore_darkness.toml).
  • Adjustable Nether and End fog multipliers to keep those dimensions oppressive.
  • Supports Distant Horizons!

Install

Build

  • Java 21 with Gradle + Fabric Loom.
  • Versions live in gradle.properties. Run ./gradlew build.
