Dynamic Lights [BTW Addon]

by Hiracho

Dynamic Lights [BTW Addon] makes a lit torch in the player's hand give off light, so the area around the player is lit while holding it.

What it does

Holding a lit torch places an actual light-emitting block at the player's position, lighting the surrounding area as the player moves. The block sits in the air around the player and does not need the torch to be placed on the ground. This addon requires Better Than Wolves: CE, and it works alongside that mod's torch behavior. Environment: client and server, so the server and every player need it. Published for Legacy Fabric 1.6.4 only, with the latest file 1.3.0 dated 2026-02-01, under the Creative Commons Attribution Share Alike 4.0 license, which is not open source.

Key features

  1. Light from the held torch

    A lit torch in hand places a light source at the player, so nearby blocks stay visible.

  2. Light follows the player

    The light source moves with the player and is removed when the torch is no longer lit or held.

  3. Torch behavior extension

    The addon builds on the torch behavior of its required dependency and does not run without it.

What the author says

It works by adding an actual light emiting block inside a player holding the torch. The plus side of that is that it prevents gloom from affecting the player and it can affect blocks that need light near them, the downside of this is that you won't be able to emit light if your player's head is inside some other…
