For my mod the key is to make light equal to the amount of glowstone shine off the item whenever you hold it, but I'm not sure how to do this, can anyone tell me how to do it? I am very new to modding so please help if I find out how to do this then my mod will be finished.
Well, the Dynamic Lights mod has this, but I wouldn't even try doing that if you're just a beginner. I doubt that's even close to easy to do
I've tried thinking about making the blocks around you increase in light value when you walked by, but I don't think that would work well. Personally, I think it's amazing what the creator of that mod did.
Minecraft vanilla does not support dynamic lighting, so what you want to do is pretty much impossible unless you can write a entire new dynamic lighting engine.
