Infinite Light
by Akio_3976
Infinite Light is a Forge and NeoForge decoration mod that turns glowing materials into lighting blocks and makes them easier to get in survival.
What it does
Glowing materials such as glow berries, glowstone powder, prismarine crystals and sea lantern pieces can be converted through fluorescent powder, so players gather a common item instead of several rare ones. The mod adds crafting routes for sea lanterns, froglights and end rods that are otherwise hard to mass-produce, and provides blaze powder, rod and prismarine shard recipes, including smelting. A cleric villager sells some of the items, and mushrooms trigger a few special changes.
The mod is aimed at survival builders who need many light sources for large structures and modern-style buildings, and it combines with the original version with minimal modification. It fits alongside Create, since the same materials are used there too. The author's notes describe redstone and other special properties as still waiting to be discovered. Files are for 1.20.1, 1.21.1 and 1.21.4. The mod runs on client and server, and it is released under the MIT License and open source, with the source on GitHub and an MCreator workspace available.
