Sodium Shadowy Path Blocks

The Sodium requirement has been removed.

This means that you can probably run it with a Sodium fork like Embeddium, and probably on Forge too, with Sinytra Connector. That being said, I make no compatibility guarantees. If something isn't working properly running SSPB with a Sodium fork, I probably won't fix it.

SSPB 3.4.0 for Sodium 0.4.3 to 0.5.11 / MC 1.19 to 1.21.1

by Rynnavinx on Aug 15, 2024
Download

New:

  • "Shadowyness" slider now works on blocks with modded rendering (such as blocks with connected textures).
    • This only applies if "ambient-occlusion-mode" is set to "auto" or "enhanced" in ".minecraft/config/indium-renderer.properties", but "auto" is the default value, so if you didn't touch that file, you should be fine.
  • "Use vanilla lighting for path blocks" option can now be toggled when path blocks are using modded rendering.
  • Some optimizations (with help from rhysdh540)
  • Added Traditional Chinese (zh_tw) localization (by yichifauzi and notlin4).
  • Update Mod Menu entry.
  • Now explicitly incompatible with Sodium 0.6.0 versions.

by Rynnavinx on Jul 14, 2024
Download

New:

  • Added es_mx localization (by TheLegendofSaram)

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed "Use vanilla lighting for path blocks" option not working in MC 1.21

SSPB 3.3.0 for Sodium 0.4.3 to 0.5.11 / MC 1.19 to 1.21.1

Now supports MC 1.20.5

New:

  • Added ru_ru localization (by mpustovoi)
  • Updated some en_us settings tooltips
  • Made some tiny optimizations

Bug Fixes:

  • Fixed "use vanilla lighting for path blocks" option not being vanilla accurate

SSPB 3.2.1 for Sodium 0.4.3 to 0.5.8 / MC 1.19 to 1.20.4

by Rynnavinx on Sep 16, 2023
Download

New:

  • Updated zh_cn localization (by 7777777-4547)

SSPB 3.2.0 for Sodium 0.4.3 to 0.5.0 / MC 1.19 to 1.20.1

by Rynnavinx on Aug 6, 2023
Download

New:

  • When Indium and Fabric API are installed, you can now enable "vanilla lighting" for path blocks. This gives path blocks vanilla-accurate lighting, but disables the effect of the shadowyness slider on them.
  • This "vanilla lighting" is force-enabled when there is modded path block rendering (such as connected textures). This fixes path blocks not being shadowy when using this mod.
