About

Lumina is a Minecraft mod that adds 7 differently colored glowsticks to the game. These glowsticks can be thrown and therefore can be used for exploring deep cave systems (like glowsticks in Terraria). For achieving the colored lights effect this mod is using Mirage API.

The main purpose of this mod is serving as an example of using an external library in MCreator.

Glowsticks

Glowsticks can be quite easily crafted from a stick, some glowstone dust, and a dye.

Download this mod
Move the downloaded file to your mods directory (for Windows %appdata%/.minecraft/mods)
Run the game
(Optional) edit mirage.cfg (located in .minecraft/config) if you want to change the maximal light render distance, maximal light count,etc..

Compatibility

This mod can be played without the Mirage API, however, it will not provide any of the light effects, making it useless.

Mirage API is not compatible with mods that alter the game's rendering in a similar way (like Optifine), therefore Lumina is not de facto compatible with these mods as well.
