About this mod Author’s original text
Were you excited to learn there were new perpetual light sources in the form of the Dvergr lanterns —
and then realized they barely lit anything? Yeah. Me too...
Better Lanterns adds brighter, improved variants of the Dvergr lanterns so you can properly light your builds without spamming dozens of lights.
As of v1.1.1, all lanterns now support FULLY configurable light settings.
- New Lantern Variants
- Better Wall Lantern
- Better Pole Lantern
- Grand Pole Lantern
- Better Hand Lantern
- Wisp Wall Lantern
- Wisp Pole Lantern
- Wisp Hand Lantern
- Configurable Light Settings
- Light Intensity
- Light Range
- Light LOD Distance
- Shadow LOD Distance
- Live updates (no restart required)
- ServerSync Support
- Server-enforced configuration
- Optional config locking
- Mistlands Ready
- Wisp lanterns include demister support
- Handheld Wisp lantern works correctly when equipped
This mod adds a newer, brighter variant of the wall mounted Dvergr Lanterns, the Dverger pole lanterns, the handheld Dvergr Lanterns, as well as a custom Grand Pole Lantern - and gives them 4 times the light radius. You will no longer need to place 50 lanterns to light up your room.
Also included is a Wisp edition of each of the new lanterns for all of your Mistland needs!
- The new variants of the handheld lanterns can be crafted at the Black Forge just like the vanilla lanterns.
- The new wall and pole lanterns are crafted in your hammer build menu just like the vanilla lanterns.

Install & use Install: BepInEx plugin
- The archive from playbuff is the mod itself — usually a BepInEx plugin (a .dll or a plugin folder once unzipped).
- Recommended: use a community mod manager (such as r2modman) — pick this game, import the mod, and the manager sets up BepInEx and its dependencies for you.
- Manual route: install the BepInEx loader in the game folder, then drop the unzipped .dll or plugin folder into BepInEx/plugins/.
- Launch the game — the BepInEx console logs every plugin it loads; seeing this mod in the log means it is installed.
Mods with listed dependencies need those installed too, or they will not load. Options are usually changed in-game or in the plugin's config file. In multiplayer, the host and every client need the same mods installed.
Install these first, or the mod will not work:
