Hello everybody!
This release brings Lighty to 1.21.5. Sorry for the wait, the Minecraft changes were rough this time!
I had to rewrite large portions of the rendering code, so if you encounter any bugs, please report them on GitHub or in my Discord server. Thanks!
Thank you all for your patience, and have fun!
Hello again!
This Lighty release contains:
- A bug fix regarding several mod incompatibilities, thanks to everyone who reported that to me!
- The overlay now follows the camera position instead of the player position. This change was made so that players using a freecam mod can more easily search for spawnable blocks.
Thank you all for your patience, and have fun!

Hello everybody!
This Lighty release updates the Mod to Minecraft 1.21.3 and contains the following changes:
- Traditional Chinese Translation by @yichifauzi
- Fixing a bug where whole ChunkSections would appear red #78
- Fixing a bug where the overlay would flicker when the player is at large coordinates #81
- Merging FarmlandMode into all other modes
This release had quite a lot of internal changes, especially to fix #81. With these changes, new features are possible!
One of those features is the ability to merge multiple data sources into one rendered overlay.
With this release, FarmlandMode was therefore integrated into every other mode. If you want to change this, as in, remove Farmland highlighting, go to your instance config folder and modify lighty/base.config as follows:
- Find the line saying
lighty.active_data_providers=lighty:data_provider_base lighty:data_provider_farmland - Change it to
lighty.active_data_providers=lighty:data_provider_base
A more convenient way to enable/disable data providers in-game will be added in a later release.
You now also have the ability to change the colors of the farmland overlay, also in the config file.
There, you need to change the lines starting with lighty.additional_overlay_good, lighty.additional_overlay_warn and lighty.additional_overlay_bad. For now, the default colors are the same as the normal overlay colors. If you happen to find a good alternative color scheme (mostly to reduce confusion whether mobs can spawn on farmland (they cannot)), feel free to tell me on my Discord or by opening an issue on GitHub.
Lots of internal changes also means lots of potential for new bugs to appear. If you find some, please also let me know by opening an issue on GitHub or by telling me on Discord. Thanks!
As always, thank you for your patience and for using Lighty.
Have fun!

Thoughts on Localizations
As you might see, Lighty is at a point where people want to contribute localization files to the project. I highly appreciate the effort and work that goes into creating these translations.
However, Lighty is getting changes and updates, while not many, that change or add new localization entries. This results in those contributed languages to be incomplete, or worse, incorrect. I want to improve this situation, and therefore I have opened #74 to track changes to localization files. I want to try this, let me know your thoughts and feedback!
Thanks for using Lighty, and for all the contributions. I highly appreciate it and am grateful for everything <3
Have fun!
Hello everybody!
I am happy to announce that there is a new Lighty release for Minecraft 1.20.1.
This update for this now one year old Minecraft version contains:
Fabric
- A backport for the fix for #64.
Forge
A little bit of backstory: I've been playing the modpack CaveStone by the great MelanX, who included Lighty as the light overlay of choice. While playing, I noticed some bugs, which are now (hopefully) fixed.
- When multiple blocks are broken using a hammer in complete darkness, the overlay would not update correctly. This was fixed using a better mixin location.
- Lighty now correctly reports as an client side mod, so that a server which doesn't have Lighty doesn't mark the client as potentially incompatible.
Further information
Now that the summer break has begun, I will have some more time for developing Lighty again! Thank you all for your patience and for continuing to use Lighty. Thanks a lot!
