About this Mod

💡 Dynamic Lights for BTW: CE 💡

This addon for Better Than Wolves adds dynamic lighting to your character while holding a lit torch or lit crude torch.

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 block like while passing through a door or vines.
