Description

Designed to fit into Minecraft's lore as closely as possible, while providing a more challenging early game experience and encouraging players to use powered, magical, and bioluminescent light sources.

An open source mod built for Fabric (works on Quilt, too). Requires Fabric API and owo-lib. For more in-depth information regarding the project, read the wiki 📖.

Inspired by Realistic Torches, thank you MattCzyr!

  • 🔥 Bring unlit torches to life during your adventures with fire, lava (flowing, standing, or even in a cauldron!), or flint and steel.
  • 🏊 Wading, swimming, fully submerging in water, or getting rained on can cause jack o'lanterns, lanterns, and torches to extinguish.
  • 💪 Glowstone lanterns and torches for mid/late-game which are waterproof and never die out.
