Permanent Night Vision
by ming_hai
Pressing the G key gives the player a permanent night vision effect, with the toggle handled by Permanent Night Vision itself.
What it does
The G key switches on a night vision effect that stays active until it is turned off again. The effect is applied to the player and shows no particles and no on-screen interface, so the view simply brightens. The mod is built for Forge and NeoForge, with files for 1.20.1 and 1.21.1, the latest being 1.0 for 1.20.1 on Forge and 1.0.0 for 1.21.1 on NeoForge. Only the client needs it, so servers can run without it. Its license is Creative Commons Attribution Non Commercial Share Alike 4.0, and the project is not open source.
