A lighting mod that creates dynamic illumination around your character when carrying a torch. Customize light warmth, strength, and color through an in-game menu.
Exploring caves and fighting at night becomes much easier when you can actually see. Brightness Tweaks adds dynamic lighting around your character when you carry a torch in your utility belt.
What Does This Mod Do?
This mod creates a configurable light source centered on your player. Instead of only illuminating the area directly around a placed torch, you carry the light with you. The effect activates automatically when any torch is in your utility belt.
Key Features
- Player-centered dynamic light — Light follows you everywhere
- Customizable warmth — Adjust color temperature from cool to warm
- Color options — Set any color using hex codes
- Brightness control — Fine-tune light intensity
- Persistent settings — Your preferences save between sessions

Open the visual menu with /br for easy configuration, or use direct commands:
| Command | Description |
