Get automatic light colors from mod blocks

How the mod detects unknown block colors

This mod automatically reads the textures of blocks from other mods to determine what color light they should emit. You don't need to configure anything—the mod handles it in the background.

Using modded light sources

1. Install other mods alongside this one that add decorative or functional blocks

2. Place any glowing or light-emitting block from those mods in your world

3. The mod will scan the block's texture and apply a matching light color automatically

4. The colored light spreads and mixes like any other light source

Best practices

  • Blocks with vibrant textures will produce more saturated light colors
  • Blocks with muted or grayscale textures may produce subtle or neutral light
  • Test different modded blocks to see which ones produce the lighting effects you want
  • Combine auto-detected colors with vanilla colored light sources for variety
