Make Your End Crystals Glow in the Dark
Setting Light Level
End crystals can emit their own light regardless of surrounding brightness. This is useful for creating glowing decorative crystals in dark areas or caves.
1. Open your end crystal configuration settings
2. Locate the Light Level option
3. Increase the value to make crystals emit more light
4. A higher light level makes the crystal glow brighter in darkness
5. Test in a dark area to see the effect
Combining with Visual Effects
For maximum glow impact, pair light level adjustments with other settings:
- Enable Render Core and set core color to bright white or yellow for an intense light source
- Use the Default or End Portal rendering mode for a more luminous appearance
- Adjust Core Alpha to control how transparent the glowing core appears
This creates end crystals that function as decorative light sources, perfect for marking important locations or creating atmospheric lighting in your base without needing separate light blocks.
