About this Mod
What even is this?
I'm glad you asked. GlowUp is a client-sided mod that applies the glowing effect to specific, configurable items on the ground.
How can I configure what items glow?
The easiest way is to install ModMenu and Cloth Config, then go to ModMenu's mod list and configure the settings from there. You can also edit the config by hand, under .minecraft/config/glowup.toml, but this is not recommended.
Does this mod work with other mods?
It's compatible with most if not all mods that add their own items.
Can it highlight other entities?
No, GlowUp only highlights dropped items.

GlowUp server crashes on startup – what to do?

Server lagging with GlowUp – how to optimize performance?
Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if GlowUp consumes the most tick time. Common fixes: reduce server view-distance to 8-10, install "performant" or "starlight" as supplementary mods on Forge. With Mado Hosting, your server runs on NVMe SSDs with dedicated CPU cores for minimal latency.
