🔗Dependencies
This mod makes use of GeckoLib, plus Fabric API on Fabric and Quilt.
The helmet's light comes from a dynamic lights mod, which your launcher installs for you:
- Fabric, Quilt and NeoForge: LambDynamicLights
- Forge 1.20.1 and NeoForge 1.21.4: Tschipcraft's Dynamic Lights, which works in singleplayer and on servers
- On Forge 1.20.1 you can use Sodium Dynamic Lights instead for smoother light, but only in singleplayer or on servers that also have it
The light goes out underwater.
