download Skip to Downloads

Craftable Froglights Mod (1.21.8, 1.20.1) introduces a much-requested feature for builders and lighting enthusiasts: the ability to craft froglights directly through recipes. In vanilla Minecraft, froglights can only be obtained by leading frogs to attack small magma cubes an inefficient and tedious process. This mod eliminates the hassle by providing balanced, resource-based crafting recipes for all three froglight variants: Verdant, Pearlescent, and Ochre.

Designed to integrate seamlessly into both survival gameplay and modded experiences, this mod makes it far easier to access one of the game’s most beautiful and versatile light sources without sacrificing progression or immersion. Whether you’re lighting up a lush jungle base, a magical nether build, or an elegant modern house, froglights are now within reach.

Why Use Craftable Froglights Mod?

Froglights are one of Minecraft’s most visually pleasing and unique light sources, but acquiring them in survival often involves breeding frogs, finding magma cubes, and manipulating mob interactions. Craftable Froglights Mod removes that unnecessary complexity while preserving game balance. Builders can now freely decorate with color-specific lighting, survival players can enhance their bases, and modpack creators can finally offer a reliable froglight source in automation or progression-focused packs.

This is a must-have mod for anyone who wants creative freedom without breaking the vanilla experience.
