Customize Sunrise and Sunset Colors

Access Sky and Lighting Options

Open shader settings and navigate to the sky or atmosphere section. This controls how the sun, sky, and ambient light shift throughout the day.

Modify Color Grading

  • Sunrise/Sunset Warmth: Increases orange, red, and yellow tones during dawn and dusk. Higher values create more saturated, dramatic color shifts.
  • Sky Saturation: Controls how vivid sky colors appear. Increase for bold, cinematic sunsets; decrease for subtle, naturalistic tones.
  • Ambient Light Color: Adjusts the overall tint cast on blocks and terrain during different times. Warmer settings enhance the golden-hour feel.

Fine-Tune Timing

Some settings let you adjust when color transitions occur relative to the Minecraft day cycle. Experiment to align peak colors with your preferred playtime.

Preview Changes

Use commands like /time set 0 (sunrise) or /time set 12000 (sunset) to jump to specific times and see your adjustments in real-time.
