An unofficial maintenance fork of Create: Dynamic Lights for Minecraft 1.20.1 and Create 6.

It adds lighting to moving Create contraptions through smooth client-side dynamic lighting, optional server-side vanilla light blocks, or both. Maintenance is provided on a best-effort basis.

Features

Adds smooth, moving light sources to illuminated blocks on Create contraptions.
Supports Sodium Dynamic Lights, RyoamicLights and Cheap Lighting (Forge) as alternative client-side backends.
Can place invisible vanilla light blocks while contraptions move, allowing server-side light to affect mob spawning, snow, and ice.
Provides configurable luminance scaling and update intervals.
Supports client-only, server-only, and client-and-server installation.

Supported environments

Loader	Minecraft	Create	Dynamic-light backend
Fabric	1.20.1	Create Fabric 6.0.x	Sodium Dynamic Lights 1.0.x or RyoamicLights 0.2.3
Forge	1.20.1 with Forge 47.x	Create 6.0.x	Sodium Dynamic Lights 1.0.x, RyoamicLights 0.2.3, or Cheap Lighting 1.3+

Java 17 is required.
Fabric also requires Fabric API.
Fabric and Forge use separate JARs; install the one matching your loader.
RyoamicLights requires compatible ObsidianUI and Architectury API versions.
If both dynamic-light backends are installed, this mod uses Sodium Dynamic Lights.

Installation sides

Installation	Available behavior
Client only	Smooth visual dynamic lighting. No real light blocks are placed in the world.
Server only	Optional vanilla light blocks. Clients do not need this mod.
Client and server	Both behaviors are available and can be configured independently.

Without Sodium Dynamic Lights or RyoamicLights, client-side smooth lighting is inactive. The server-side light-block feature remains available.

Configuration

Client configuration controls dynamic-light integration, luminance scaling, backend-mode delay handling, and update intervals. Server configuration controls vanilla light-block placement and its minimum source luminance.

Configuration keys containing Lamb are legacy names retained for compatibility.

Known limitations

Client-side dynamic lighting is visual only. It does not affect mob spawning, crop growth, snow, or ice.
Vanilla light blocks affect the world, but may use more server resources and can visibly lag behind fast contraptions.
On Fabric, changing and saving server configuration from a client-only installation may cause a configuration mismatch. Installing the mod on the server avoids this issue.
