About

Extend Minecraft to your room with this mod. Let your Philips hue lights extend Minecraft experience by changing the color and brightness of your room. Each biome is mapped to different colors and the color of the lights will change as you travel from one biome to another. Even when you are in the water your lights will turn blue. The light intensity in room will be the same as in Minecraft. Day-night cycle and different light sources will change the brightness of your lights, but also caves and other dark places will make the brightness go down. And this all using the public Philips hue Java SDK.

Simply delete the file and the mod will create it on start-up

 

Which Forge versions does the mod support?

Make sure that your laptop and the hue bridge are connected to the same (WiFi) network, and not to 2 different network routers.
