Sleep Through The Night transforms the vanilla sleeping experience into something far more immersive. Instead of instantly skipping to day, the screen fades to black as your character drifts off — complete with a smooth camera tilt as if you're lying down. A soft cricket ambience plays in the background as the night passes.

When morning arrives, the camera slowly tilts back upright as if you're sitting up from bed, the screen gently fades back in, and a day counter appears showing how many days you've survived.

⚙️ Configurable Options

Sleep Through The Night comes with a built-in configuration file that lets you tailor the sleeping experience to your liking. Requires the Configured mod to edit in-game via Mods → Sleep Through The Night → Configure.

Timing Control how long the fade animations last. Set the fade-in duration for when you fall asleep and the fade-out duration for when you wake up, each adjustable between 1 and 10 seconds.
Text Customize the messages displayed on screen. Change what it says while you're sleeping and the prefix shown on the day counter when you wake up.
Sound Adjust the volume and pitch of the ambient sleep sound to fit your preferred atmosphere.
Features Toggle individual features on or off entirely — disable the black screen overlay, the camera tilt effect, or the sleep ambience sound independently without needing to remove the mod.

FAQs

Q. I can't configure the mod, how do I fix it?

If you have the Configured mod but you can't configure the mod, that means the version you have doesn't have configuration available yet. So, how do you check if the mod has a configuration?

Answer: You have to use 1.1+ versions such as Forge 1.20.1-1.1.1 , I added configuration to this updates. If you are using 1.0.+, it will not work.

Q. My day counter is stuck at 0, what do I do?

Answer: The implementation was started with NeoFroge 1.21.8, when I did the backport, the day counter logic no longer worked with the older versions so I had to redo that. Here are the versions where the day counter works:
