Hardcore Darkness (Fabric)
Hardcore Darkness recreates the pitch-black nights and fog tuning of the classic True Darkness mod for modern Fabric. For shaders, I suggest tweaking Complementary as this mod doesn't affect them.
Features
- Configurable darkness per dimension plus optional moon phase handling (
config/hardcore_darkness.toml
). - Adjustable Nether and End fog multipliers to keep those dimensions oppressive.
- Optional server-side requirement handshake when you want parity across a multiplayer world.
- Supports Distant Horizons!
Install
- Requires Fabric and Fabric API.
- Optional UI: add Mod Menu and Cloth Config to tweak settings in-game.
- Place the built jar in
mods/
on the client. Servers only need the jar if you fliprequire_server_mod
totrue
.
Build
- Java 21 with Gradle + Fabric Loom.
- Versions live in
gradle.properties
. Run./gradlew build
.
