A customizable flashlight shader
Turn Minecraft into an atmospheric horror experience. This shader pack completely replaces the vanilla lighting engine with a highly realistic, customizable flashlight system.
Unlike standard lighting mods that just place a light block where you look, this shader simulates a volumetric light beam projecting from your camera into 3D space. It interacts with fog, fades naturally over distance, and creates a genuine sense of dread.
Access the Shader Options menu to tweak every aspect of the light
Beam Geometry: Adjust the Core Size, Halo Width, and Intensity of each layer. Make a tight laser pointer or a wide floodlight.
Volumetric Density: Control how visible the beam is in the air.
Range & Falloff: Set the maximum distance of the light.
Color of light: Precisely adjust color for each layer.
Horror Settings: Toggle Flickering for a spooky effect, or adjust the Ambient Brightness to control how dark the shadows are.
macOS / Linux Friendly: Written in modern GLSL 330 Core, ensuring full compatibility with M1/M2/M3 Macs and modern Linux drivers.
