by Mrbysco

Colorful Skies lets players set custom colors for the sun, sunset, moon, clouds and sky.

ForgeNeoForgeClient and serverMIT LicenseOpen source1.20.1 – 26.1.2

What it does

Players can change the color of the sun, the sunset, the moon, the clouds and the sky itself, using the colorfulskies commands. The changes apply to the sky the player sees, so a world can be given a different palette without editing resource files. Colorful Skies is open source under the MIT License, and Mrbysco publishes files for Forge and NeoForge.

Key features

  1. Sun and moon colors

    The color of the sun and the moon can be set separately, for both daytime and night skies.

  2. Sunset and cloud colors

    The sunset tint and the color of the clouds can each be changed to suit a build or a mood.

  3. Colorful skies commands

    A colorfulskies command group sets each sky element, and the chosen colors apply to the sky the player sees.
