Enhance Night Vision and Low-Light Visibility

Adjust Night Lighting

Open shader settings and find controls for night-time ambient light or moonlight intensity. Dappled Shaders maintains visibility during night, but you can customize how much light the moon and stars provide.

Configure Ambient Shadows at Night

The gentle ambient shadows that define Dappled Shaders' aesthetic can make caves and night scenes darker. Look for:

• Ambient light level: Increase to brighten shadowed areas without using torches
• Shadow softness: Softer shadows reduce harsh dark patches
• Night sky brightness: Adjust how much the starry sky contributes to overall lighting

Balance Visibility and Atmosphere

You want enough light to navigate and build without losing the cozy autumn mood. Test your settings in caves, forests at night, and open areas. If caves feel too dark for mining, increase ambient light slightly. If night feels too bright and washes out the golden tones, reduce sky brightness.

Remember that torches, lanterns, and other light sources will still provide their warm glow—shader settings only affect natural lighting. Combine shader adjustments with strategic torch placement for best results.
