WTF a 5000+ lines patch?!
Most of the patch is just https://github.com/PaperMC/Starlight source code, which you can download
I don't believe this patch applies to 1.8 due to the world format being different

(also the light engine in 1.16 is a lot of interfaces & abstract classes)
Starlight's algorithms are more efficient than 1.8's design, but 1.8 has a much cleaner light engine than 1.14's mess so the difference might not be worth the effort.
oh, okay then. My friend told me that the result will be worth it so I opened it

I know it's kinda difficult to implement starlight on 1.8.8 but the performance is worth it. I don't think there is a even single fork that has patched it.
