A shaderpack/resourcepack that aims on giving brightness everywhere while keeping the game aesthetic. It
makes the game brighter, so you see well in caves, in the nether, underwater and everywhere else. But it also
keeps slight light difference so that the aesthetic is not destroyed.
If you like this pack consider supporting the development by buying me a coffee.
You can simply enable it as resourcepack (Copy the .zip into the resourcepack directory).
If you are using Sodium before 26.2, the Sodium Core Shader Support mod is required.
The pack does not work with Optifine!
While making the game brighter it also keeps the game aesthetic:
Written by linusdev. Read it with pictures on Modrinth.
Install Iris (with Sodium) or OptiFine for your Minecraft version: shaders need one of them.
Download the .zip file from Modrinth. Do not unzip it.
In Minecraft, open Options, then Video Settings, then Shader Packs, and click Open Shader Pack Folder.
Drop the .zip file into that folder, pick Night Vision Shaders in the list and click Done.
Shaders are heavy on the graphics card. If the game gets slow, pick a lower profile in the shader settings.
