🎮 How It Works & Controls

🎨 Shader Compatibility (Complementary & BSL)

JustLights is built from the ground up for high-end shader packs:

• Complementary Reimagined / Euphoria Patches: Pre-mapped to IDs 10900–10922 and configured for Voxelized Colored Lighting (COLORED_LIGHTING=512). Every color casts its own realistic light radiance onto surrounding surfaces and fog.
• BSL Shaders: Uses high-resolution emissive maps (_e.png) and LabPBR format to provide vibrant surface luminescence and bloom.
• Vanilla / Non-Shader: Looks gorgeous even without shaders thanks to standalone 128×128 HD textures and vanilla light emissions (Light Level 15).
