ColorfulVanillaLights

A shader focused on real colored block lighting for Iris.

Light sources finally emit their true colors and tint the surroundings:

• Redstone torches & redstone ore → strong pure red
• Soul torches / soul lanterns → cyan / blue
• Lanterns, glowstone, campfires, lava → warm orange
• Froglights → magenta, green, yellow
• and many more light blocks

| Ultra | Maximum intensity, very pure red |
