First release of **Enhanced Darkness** — true, oppressive darkness for Minecraft **26.1.2** (Fabric). Client-side, built for horror packs.
### Highlights
- **True black** nights and caves via a custom GPU lightmap shader
- **Dark skies** — the night sky, horizon fog and clouds are darkened too, so you can't navigate by silhouette
- **Brightness-slider override** — no cheating the dark
- Respects **Night Vision**, the Warden's **Darkness**, and **Conduit Power**
- **In-game config** (ModMenu) with live sliders and **Soft / Realistic / Nightmare** presets
### Requirements
- Minecraft **26.1.2** · Fabric Loader · **Fabric API** · **Java 25**
- Optional: **ModMenu** (for the in-game config button)
Inspired by True Darkness by Grondag, rebuilt for 26.1's GPU pipeline.
