Darkness effect doesn't work as intended like in vanilla with this mod. [1.20.1]

Hello.
I was playing around my world and I decided to get this mod (because I was getting optimization mods around this time), and I noticed one peculiar thing that happened with this mod, and only this mod.
I traveled down to a ancient city and when I set off the one of the sculk shriekers, I got the darkness effect; normally, this is suppose to cause a pulse-like effect (as stated in the accessibility options), dimming the brightness down to near darkness on and off, however, for some odd reason, and only with this mod, the effects of darkness doesn't work as intended like in vanilla.
There is no pulse-like effect, it just stays in "near darkness" till it wears off, this makes it incredibly annoying to travel down in darker areas, and be blinded by darkness (Light sources and dynamic lights counter this, albeit weakly).
Turning the darkness pulsing off in the options does fix this issue (or just, not on 100%), but I do miss the intended effect of the darkness effect with the pulse.
I suspect this might have to do with lightmaps? I could be wrong, as I don't know much about the technical side of Minecraft, but I thought I let you know about this weird bug only affecting this mod.
BadOptimizations-2.2.1-dev-shadow.zip This one works, I think.
Good news! Minecraft does see this mod and register it!
The bad news:
Tested with both my existing profile, and a new profile in the PrismMC Launcher
Completely rewrote the buildscript:
BadOptimizations-forge-2.zip
Completely rewrote the buildscript: BadOptimizations-forge-2.zip
I downloaded this version and tested it out as seen here, it seems that the darkness effect is really stubborn.
Tested this just now, and it works!
Darkness effect pulses, whilst badoptimizations does what it does in the BG, now I don't have to worry about wardens anymore
Yeah that is a lightmap issue. Hm, i thought i added special behavior for darkness.
I have a small selection of mods (testing purposes) installed with BO (I took it off as I decided against including it in the final selection), and I'm unaware if any of the shown mods could override with the special behavior you mentioned, I am also using the PrismMC Launcher, if any of this helps you narrow out the problem.
BadOptimizations-2.2.1-1.20.zip
Does this work
Does turning off the lightmap stuff fix it? If so, then that's what need a fix
I have tested this right now, I assumed it was the "Enable_lightmap_caching" option, I set that to false, and that fixed the darkness behavior back to vanilla
I have tested out the one in the ZIP just now, and I can't tell if it does work because it seems this version doesn't make a config, nor use the pre-existing config from the published version.
As proof, BadOptimizations does not appear in the mods tab:
BadOptimizations-2.2.1-dev-shadow.zip
This one works, I think.
I have downloaded the mod from here and tested it out, it does not appear in the mod list:
For proof that I have it installed, it IS in the mods folder:
Tested to see if it would make a config file, and use a pre-existing config, but Minecraft doesn't seem to register it as a installed mod.
Ok, github has to be messing with me or something. I uploaded the right JAR file and its replacing it with a dummy jar with no files.
