Fullbright Toggle
Fullbright Toggle lets a player switch the screen to maximum brightness with one key press, which makes dark caves and nights easier to see.
What it does
Pressing the toggle key sets brightness to its maximum, and pressing it again returns the view to normal. The default key is G, and it can be changed in the controls menu. The effect works in-game only and changes nothing for other players.
The mod is a client-side only mod for Forge 1.12.2, released under All rights reserved and not open source. Only the player's game needs it, so a server does not have to install it. Server rules on brightness aids differ, so players should check with the server owner before using it there.
Key features
Single-key brightness toggle
One key press sets the view to maximum brightness, and a second press restores the normal level.
Customisable key binding
The default key is G, and it can be reassigned in the controls settings to suit the player.
Client-only operation
The change happens only on the player's own screen, so no server-side install is needed.
