UltNightVision
by geturplugins
UltNightVision gives players a toggle for night vision, bound to the N key, that can stay on permanently or wear off on its own timer.
What it does
Pressing N switches the effect on or off. A permanent mode keeps the effect active at all times, while the standard mode lets it run for a set duration. The strength of the effect can be adjusted, and a master switch turns the whole mod off without removing it. The effect uses the highest amplifier and removes the usual green tint of vanilla night vision, and a separate Full Brightness mode adds its own green tint.
The mod is a Fabric client mod: only the client needs it, and servers run without it. Fabric API is required, and Mod Menu is optional; when it is installed, the settings screen is reachable from the Mod Menu list. Files are published for Fabric only, for 1.21.9, 1.21.10 and 1.21.11, with 1.0.0 for 1.21.11 as the latest file, released 2026-06-14. It is licensed as All rights reserved and is not open source.
