Night vision rendered darker and orange when nearing light sources with brightness on moody
The bug
When exploring mineshafts using night vision, I found that the blocks nearing light sources always become darker and more orange. But the block just beside the light source is normal.
How to reproduce
- Set brightness in video options to minimum
- Make/Go to a place with light level 0. (Note: It does something else if exposed to sky, but still looks weird though.)
- Get Night Vision effect.
- Place any kind of light source.
- The blocks near but not beside the light source are rendered darker. (Note: Lava blocks and Fire blocks are rendered too dark too!)
New founds added 6/24:
Finally I got the idea why night vision looks weird under night sky. I found a ravine with a hole above it, and compare to the non exposed area, the place under the night sky are extremely blue.
How to reproduce
- Set brightness in video options to minimum
- Make (since it's a little difficult to find) a huge (at least 30x10x30) room with light level 0. (Suggested that use stone with some lapis ores)
- Get Night Vision effect.
- Make sure it's night time in game.
- Break a hole on the roof.
- Enjoy! Don't forget to try Fire blocks, they look FUNNY!! (?! Just kidding XD)
