Reduce Auto Exposure Intensity in Vibrant Visuals

I really like VV however I have a problem when using any fire aspect weapon or whenever there's generally just bright objects against a dark background. The auto exposure takes effect and dramatically darkens the surroundings, reducing visibility and giving me eye strain. What's worse is that it's not just one consistent darkness; the fire flickering affects it drastically, making the effect so much hard for the eyes to adjust to.

Here are a few suggestions that might help improve VV:

  1. Adjust auto-exposure sensitivity
    Making auto-exposure transitions more gradual, or reducing how strongly it reacts to sudden brightness spikes, would prevent the screen from dramatically darkening. 

  2. Clamp the minimum exposure value
    Setting a limit so exposure never dips below a certain threshold would keep dark areas visible even when bright particles or enchantment effects appear.

  3. Improve emissive handling
    Fire aspect, glowing items, torches, and other light-emitting objects could be treated differently so that they don’t trigger extreme exposure shifts. Correct the emissive intensity, or place them in a separate layer outside the general auto-exposure calculation.

  4. Add an in-game toggle or slider
    Allowing players to fine-tune auto-exposure strength (or disable it).

  5. Optional HDR tuning
    If HDR is being used, exposing more control over brightness curves or tone-mapping might help players match the visuals to their comfort level.

    They definitely need an option to turn it off and have a slider

    Yeah the eye adaptation effect is headache inducing and makes every piece of lighting in your base look horrendous because if you have to many light sources in your base it looks like your screen has an auto dimming effect with some flicker effect. its just a dumb disgusting broken looking setting that NEEDS A TOGGLE SETTING TO COMPLETELY TURN OFF MOJANG PLEASE FOR THE LOVE OF ALL THINGS MINECRAFT ADD THIS.

     

    this is what is stopping me from using vibrant visuals is the eye adaptation simulation effects with any and all light sources.
