Night Vision Texture Pack

See in the dark without potions! Requires OptiFine mod. Not compatible with shaders.

ℹ️ Description

Night Vision is a texture pack that makes dark areas fully bright, as if you always had a Night Vision potion. It works with Minecraft 1.7.2 to 1.21.7+ and requires the OptiFine mod. Not compatible with shaders, since they override the lighting system.

📦 Supported Versions

There is a version for 1.7 to 1.12 and a version for 1.13+, make sure to download the right version. Ignore version warnings in Minecraft – it still works. Only compatible with Minecraft versions supported by OptiFine.

✅ Requirements

Everything you download must be for the same Minecraft version.
