Cy4n’s Lighting

Since its inception, Minecraft has always had bad graphics. But, thanks to Optifine, a small part of this may be remedied! Using advanced texturing technology and sky color measurements, a new resource pack has been created with the capability to completely transform the Minecraft experience. Cy4n’s Lighting offers unparalleled accuracy to Minecraft’s environment, including never-before-used-in-a-resource-pack (that I could find) texture names enabling separate light maps for rain and sunset.

Requires OptiFine.

Note: With these light maps, Moody nights and the End are dark. For gameplay purposes +25% brightness is recommended.

A sunrise, with and without the light maps:

A rainy day:

At night:

See, I told you it was dark.

The Nether:

The End:

Hey, the sky is black and there’s no sun, so don’t blame me.
