Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the shader after installing it?
Load into a world, open the Options menu, navigate to Video Settings, then select Shaders. Find BloomingLightShader in the list and click it to activate. You'll see the bloom and lighting changes take effect immediately.
Why do my torches look too bright or too dim?
Open the shader settings (usually by pressing a hotkey in-game or through Video Settings > Shaders > Shader Options) and adjust the bloom intensity slider to control how much light spreads from torches and emissive blocks. Lower values create a tighter glow, higher values spread light further.
Can I make water look more transparent or reflective?
Yes—access the shader options menu and look for water-related settings like transparency or reflection strength. Increasing these values makes water clearer and enhances light reflections on the surface.
The mod makes caves too bright and ruins the atmosphere—how do I fix this?
Reduce the bloom intensity or light falloff distance in shader settings so torchlight doesn't spread as far, or lower the overall brightness multiplier to keep caves darker while preserving soft lighting near light sources.
