Due to the new way Minecraft 1.17+ renders stuff, this mod is not possible past 1.16.5. This project will be removed in the future. You can also consider using SHIMMER instead for newer MC versions

This mod is the API and Colored Lighting engine used by Hyper Lighting on Minecraft 1.14.4+. This mod doesn't do anything on it's own, but when used with Hyper Lighting or by other mods/resource packs it allows blocks/items/entities to emit colored light.

Configuration

* By editing hypcore-client.toml in your minecraft directory under Configs.

Optifine support

NO! NO! AND AGAIN NO! This mod uses shaders and is therefore not compatible with optifine nor will it ever be.

* BUG REPORTS MADE ABOUT ISSUES RELATING TO OPTIFINE WILL BE CLOSED AND IGNORED! *

Troubleshooting

If you suspect this mod causes any issues with your game, you can help isolate it this way:

* Disable Colored Lighting from the configuration either in game or the config file.
* See if the issue you spotted persists. If no, then re-enable colored lighting and see if the issue appears again. If yes, then it probably isn't this mod, but try running the game without the mod just to be sure.

If you have found a bug, report it using the Issues tab above. The more detail you give, the quicker it will be to identify and fix bugs.

Known Issues

1) ~~Entities do not flash red when being attacked or hurt. I am trying to figure this out and will fix it as soon as I find the cause~~ - This should have been fixed by release time. If not, please log a bug report

2) Light leaks through blocks. This is something that is SUPER HARD to fix, and is probably something that will never be fixed. However, this may change in the future

3) Hit boxes are broken on 1.16.

4) Lights have random on/off glitches in 1.16

5) Fog rendering is broken 1.15/1.16
