Frequently asked questions

How do I turn on the light level overlay?
This is a core shader, so you switch it on from the in-game Resource Packs menu rather than through a mod loader. Move it into the active list, apply it, and the light markings will show up on the blocks around you.
Do I need Forge or Fabric for this to work?
No. It runs directly in standard Minecraft without any extra mod loaders.
What do the 0, 1 and 15 markings mean?
Light Level 0 marks the darkest blocks, where hostile mobs spawn. Light Level 1 marks blocks with very low light, which are good places to add torches. Light Level 15 marks the brightest spots, such as blocks right next to a strong light source.
Which blocks should I worry about for mob spawning?
Focus on blocks marked Light Level 0, because that is where hostile mobs spawn. Clear every 0 marking from an area to stop zombies and creepers from appearing there.
