About this mod Author’s original text

lumalab

lumalab is a graphics and lighting overhaul for bonelab made to improve the game's visuals without destroying performance.

features

  • improved lighting and shadows
  • better texture filtering and distant detail
  • selective bloom for lights, glowing objects, nullbodies, muzzle flashes, impacts, and other bright effects
  • improved reflections on glass, mirrors, metal, and other reflective materials
  • performance, realism, and cinematic presets
  • customizable settings through bonemenu
  • optimized to avoid unnecessary realtime lights and expensive reflection cameras

all settings can be found under bonemenu → lumalab, with separate sections for selective bloom, material reflections, blood particles, and lighting/detail.

the goal is simple: make bonelab look better while still feeling like bonelab.

Install & use Install: follow the bundled instructions

  1. Unzip the archive from playbuff and read the bundled readme / instructions first.
  2. Most mods rely on the game's mod loader — the usual route is a community mod manager (such as r2modman): pick this game, install, and it handles the loader and dependencies.
  3. For a manual install, put the mod files into the matching Mod / plugins folder inside the game directory.
  4. Launch the game to confirm it loaded; mods with listed dependencies need those installed as well.

Install locations vary a lot between mods — the bundled readme is the most reliable guide.
