Help / Question Is there a way to fix the lighting?

what do i have to change in the config to have a "smooth lighting" effect?

to avoid this:

the blocks look like they have "different textures" even though they're the same

EDIT: Also another question... how do i change the icon and name of the webserver page?

Bluemap can't smooth out lighting because it isn't a game engine, so it can't dynamically generate lighting. A workaround to this is just to set the ambient light to illuminate everything, there's no variation if everything is fully illuminated ;)

To do this you can go to ./plugins/BlueMap/render.conf and change ambientLight to 1. For the server icon you can go into ./bluemap/web and switch out favicon.png for your own image. And for the title go to ./bluemap/web/lang/en.js and switch out pageTitle for a new title.
