Swinging Lanterns Mod brings life to your world by making light sources move. This mod makes hanging lights sway back and forth naturally. When bad weather hits, the wind pushes them harder, making storms look much cooler. It happens completely on your screen, so you can join regular servers and still see the cool animations. You do not need any heavy graphics packs to make this work.

Swinging Lanterns Mod

Features:

  • Smooth movement: Watch your hanging lights sway gently back and forth.
  • Weather effects: Rain and thunder make the swinging much stronger.
  • Moving chains: You can turn on an option to make the attached metal links move too.
  • Performance friendly: The code runs fast and will not slow down your game.
  • Visual only: This change does not affect how you play and works perfectly on regular multiplayer servers.
  • Works with other packs: Special lights added by other content will swing just like normal ones.
  • Resource pack ready: Custom textures will sway without any extra steps.

Configuration:

  • Turn the moving metal links on or off.
  • Change how fast and far the lights swing.
  • Make rain and thunder push the lights harder or softer.
  • Turn off the movement for lights placed inside buildings.
