Wearable Lanterns (Unofficial Port)
by not.unnamed
Wearable Lanterns is a Fabric mod that lets players equip a lantern on the character so it lights the way without being held in a hand.
What it does
A lantern equipped through the mod stays lit on the character, leaving both hands free for mining, exploring dark caves or fighting at night. The mod is a Fabric port that does not come from the original author. It needs Trinkets Updated, which supplies the equipment slots the lanterns sit in. Installation covers the server and each player's game. Builds cover 26.2 – 26.3, with 0.1.2 for 26.3 as the latest file, and the code is released under the MIT License without being open source.
