About this Mod
This project is not being actively developed, it's just something I'm working on in my free time. Updates will be few and far between.
Overview
A small 1.20.1 Quilt Minecraft mod with a focus on adding new lighting blocks.
In its current state, the mod isn't very big. It doesn't add a lot, but it's just a little hobby project of mine to learn Minecraft modding.
I'm trying to keep the blocks and items I add in a similar style to those in vanilla so that they feel like they could be added in a new update and not feel that far-fetched.
I'd love any feedback on the GitHub page!
Blocks
The mod currently adds 3 new blocks:
- Jar, no light emission (it's a jar)
- Glowstone Jar, light level 14
- Redstone Jar, light level 7
I'm planning on adding a Glow Ink Jar and a Glow Ink Block in the next update, and then whatever other blocks I think of in future updates.
Can I use this in a modpack?
Of course!! Just leave credit to me as the author.
All models and textures are created by me.

Recommended RAM: 4 GB (per 8 players). Use /spark profiler to check if Refulgence consumes the most tick time.
