Boosted Brightness Remastered
by Sarocesch
With Boosted Brightness Remastered, players can set the screen brightness beyond the default levels, using a slider that extends the range from -150% to 1200%.
What it does
The mod changes the brightness setting of the game so it can be pushed past the vanilla maximum, which helps when playing at night or in dark caves. Five custom brightness levels can be stored and recalled from the Mod Menu screen, so a preferred value does not need to be dragged back each time. A nighttime brightness comparison is included for checking how a scene looks at different settings.
Installation requires Fabric Loader, plus the Fabric API jar in the mods folder for the Fabric build. The Mod Menu companion is dropped into the same folder. Boosted Brightness Remastered is client-side only, so a server does not need it and players join servers without installing it. Files are published for Fabric, Forge and NeoForge across 12 release versions, 1.20.1 – 26.3, and the code is released under the MIT License and is open source.
