Understand Colored Lighting Mechanics

Breeze Flow Shaders automatically casts realistic colored light from torches, lanterns, and other light-emitting blocks. Different light sources emit different colors—torches cast warm orange/yellow light, while certain blocks may emit cooler tones.

Maximize Lighting Effects

To make colored lighting most visible:

  • Build in darker areas: Caves, underground bases, and night scenes show colored lighting most dramatically. The contrast between lit and unlit areas makes the effect prominent.
  • Use varied light sources: Mix torches, lanterns, and other emitters to create layered colored light that blends realistically.
  • Adjust ambient lighting settings: In shader options, increase light bloom or glow intensity to make colored light halos more pronounced around sources.

Optimize for Your Preference

If colored lighting appears too subtle or too intense:

  • Lower the "Light Bloom" slider to reduce halos
  • Increase "Ambient Light" if you want more color saturation in shadows
  • Adjust "Colored Light Strength" if available in your shader version

Test changes in a controlled environment—a small room with a few torches—before applying them to your main build.
