• Individual brightness settings for every supported light source
• Dynamic states for furnaces, campfires, candles, redstone lamps, copper bulbs, glow berries, sea pickles, and respawn anchors
• Colored lighting for Allays, Blazes, Breezes, Glow Squids, Magma Cubes, and Vexes
• Matching lighting for supported held and dropped items
• English and Russian configuration labels
• No gameplay changes

Requirements

Colored Lights currently works only on Minecraft 1.21.1 and requires:

• Polytone
• Veil

It is designed to accompany Visual Effects+, but the main pack is not required for the colored-light definitions to load.

Installation

1. Install Polytone and Veil for Minecraft 1.21.1.
2. Place the resource pack ZIP in your resourcepacks folder.
3. Enable Colored Lights from the Resource Packs menu.

Configuration

Open the Resource Packs menu and click the Polytone paintbrush button in the bottom-right corner.

Every supported light source has separate controls for:

• Brightness multiplier

Setting brightness to 0 completely disables the selected light. Default values preserve the intended colors and intensity.

Colored lights may affect performance when many supported sources are visible simultaneously.
