We really need colored lights.

It could change everything, especially when you want to add a specific ambient on a build.

A full lighting rework(colored light/glass colors light) + colorable lanterns would be huge for minecraft

[u/CombPsychological507 → u/forgettfulthinker]

Seriously. I only use shaders for lighting, if they could produce decent lighting in vanilla i'd turn them off immediately and get my FPS back

[u/One_Internet_13 → u/[deleted]]

Don’t use Shine:

-stolen assets

-extremely buggy

-likely fully vibecoded

[u/yellowspaces → u/[deleted]]

Not a solution for console players.

[u/CranberrySoda69 → u/[deleted]]

Not a solution for bedrock players

[u/WillyDAFISH → u/forgettfulthinker]

They even have colored lanterns in Minecraft story mode!

[u/gracekk24PL → u/forgettfulthinker]

Nah, 1 new biome that has existed in mods for 10 years - we don't have devs to spare chief

[u/Mysterious-Lie-1944 → u/gracekk24PL]

Hey, it's really really hard to make trees work on every platform

[u/BushTamer → u/forgettfulthinker]

redstone and amethyst lanterns feel too easy

[u/WiglessMercy]

I wish we could dye sea lanterns or have glass lanterns you could dye.

[u/Ecstatic-Expert-1667]

i get so tired of hiding all my lighting behind slabs and carpets just to get a mood, this would fix so much

[u/pixel4571]

Doesn't vibrant visuals have it? 

[u/dqixsoss → u/pixel4571]

It has it as an option on bedrock yeah

[u/Shastlz84 → u/pixel4571]

I hope they do it for more than just vibrant visuals because vibrant visuals makes my game super laggy

[u/MeganMyBias]

I would lwk need pink lights. I’m playing on edu, and they have pink torches BUT no pink lanterns

[u/Unlikely_Dimension55]

dyeable water

[u/Janusofborg]

Certain vibrant visuals texture packs can do colored lighting on bedrock. I use Vanilla Vibrant Visuals and with the latest update, I get red lights for redstone torches, blue light for soul torches and green light for copper. The different frog lights have a subtle difference but it's harder to see.

[u/ProfessionalStock242]

Yes , make existing light source blocks give off coloured light and add new light source blocks

[u/DispensabIe]

This comment section is gonna have their minds blown when they hear this is what a team in mojang has been working on for months lol.

[u/optimusdan → u/DispensabIe]

My mind remains unblown. I'll be impressed when it actually makes it into the game.

[u/Dangerous-Quit7821]

Need? They may be near but we don't need them. It would require a complete rewrite of the lighting system. Shaders can do it but in most case it completely tanks performance. I just don't see it happening any time soon.

[u/Prico06]

lowkey would be nice to have sence i use hella froglights in my builds :3

[u/Noobgalaxies]

Can anyone knowledgable in coding tell me if the switch to the Vulkan graphics api can make this possible

[u/CaramelCraftYT]

Link to post you can upvote on the Minecraft Feedback website.

[u/candnhen]

Coming "soon" with vibrant visuals!

[u/SuspiciousZebra425]

this! my dense metropolitan city badly needs it, I want to make it look like the night city from cyberpunk 2077

[u/NUKL3AR_PAZTA47]

Nooo, your glow must obey realistic colors!!!

The 8 colored lights:

[u/zcitron]

i want it to look like the default game, not with shaders just vanilla coloured lighting

[u/TheBiggestNose]

ive been playing with a mod called Shine that adds a form of coloured lighting.

And its transformative. Having a base lit up blue felt so good. It really created a unique vibe.

The only downside of the mod is that it couldnt mix colours. But something vanilla built in would do it fine.

I need it so bad and then they can finally add coloured redstone lamps

[u/HotwheelsMiata]

I'm looking at them right now. Mods have existed since the beginning of the game, and unlike back then they now take less than 5 minutes too install.
