Tired of searching for coal and making stacks of torches to light a cave? Well, if so, this addon is for you adding dynamic lighting.

Add-on Overview

  • Non Experimental Addon.

Dynamic Lighting: Demonstration

Dynamic Lightning consists of having an item, be it a torch or an item that gives light, like a lava bucket. By having these items in hand, it lights up around you.

Torch Offhand

Player with Torch Offhand

This addon makes Minecraft vanilla torch work in the offhand fully vanilla "natively".

Crafting and using the Torch Offhand

You can directly hold the torch in the offhand after crafting it.

(The level of light will depend on the type of item).

Dynamic Lighting: Underwater Demonstration

In this addon, dynamic light is not limited to air but can also be used underwater thanks to the new Sea Torch and other types of light-emitting items such as light-emitting blocks, lanterns, etc.

  1. This is a great addon, thank you so much for making it! I have found two issues as of 1.21.30.
    #1 The torch appears invisible in your normal hand and off-hand, and when you go in to Third-Person Camera Mode the torch is gigantic and floating behind you, moving with your crosshair.

    #2 When you enter your world after deactivating the addon, all of the torches in your inventory and chests will be deleted. I'm pretty sure it's just the torches though.

    Anyways it's an awesome pack, and is there any way you could get the items to glow while in armorstands or item frames?
