Frequently asked questions

How do I install this resource pack?
Download the pack file, then open your Minecraft resource packs folder (usually found in .minecraft/resourcepacks). Drag the pack file into that folder, restart Minecraft, and enable it in Settings > Resource Packs by moving it to the active list.
Will this work with shaders?
Delight Map is designed to work without shaders in vanilla Minecraft. If you use shaders alongside it, the lighting changes may conflict or be overridden by your shader's own lighting system, so results will vary.
Can I use this with Sodium?
Yes, Delight Map works with Sodium and other performance mods. The resource pack adjusts Minecraft's built-in lighting system, which is separate from rendering optimizations.
Why is my base still too bright even with this pack?
The pack lowers overall brightness but doesn't remove light sources—you still need to place torches and lanterns strategically. If your base feels overlit, add more shadows by using blocks to block sky light or reduce the number of light sources in open areas.
