NoBlindnessEffect
by gduckmc
NoBlindnessEffect removes the blindness status effect, so a player can keep seeing the world after a potion or a mob applies it.
What it does
Blindness is normally applied by potions and some mobs, and it limits what a player can see for a set time. This Forge mod for Minecraft 1.8.9 removes that status effect so the view stays clear while exploring caves, fighting mobs or testing potions. The change happens on the client only, and the mod is published for 1.8.9 alone, with one file, version 1.0, dated 2025-07-24.
Key features
Blindness removed
The blindness status effect no longer reduces the player's view, whatever source applied it.
Clearer view underground
Caves and other dark areas stay readable while the mod is installed, with no effect to wait out.
Uninterrupted combat
Fights with mobs that would otherwise blind the player proceed without the visual penalty.
