Minecraft Java Edition – How to Brighten Minecraft More Than the Brightest Setting

minecraft-java-edition

On my crappy laptop screen, even the brightest setting isn't bright enough. Whenever I play on PC, I see a bit into the darkness, but today on Laptop I got surprised by a skeleton, while I had torches and everything.

So is there a way to increase the brightness above the highest brightness setting?

Best Answer

Yes, there is a way!

If you edit your options.txt file located under the %appdata% .minecraft folder. Where it says gamma: 1.0

change this value to 2.0 or higher!

Or just use night vision potions in game, which are meant for that reason!
