Dynamic Lights List + Optifine

I use DarknessLib for Grue, but figured I'd add dynamic light to some items for fun.

Relevant configs:

ofDynamicLights:2

S:"Dynamic Lights List" <
    minecraft:golden_carrot
>

B:"Dynamic Lights Mode"=true

After a restart, holding golden carrots now prevents Grues from spawning, but they don't cast dynamic light like handheld torches or glowstone dust. For now as a workaround I'm using dynamic_lights.properties.

Minecraft Forge 14.23.5.2855
OptiFine 1.12.2 HD U G5
DarknessLib 1.12.2-1.1.2

Maybe I should emphasize it a bit more on the mod page, but DarknessLib only tells other mods server-side that "this player is currently emitting [INSERT LIGHT LEVEL] with the item they're holding", while on the client side you have to configure the mod providing dynamic lights to make the item emit light (assuming it can be configured to do so, otherwise... meh).

I see! Yes, I misunderstood the meaning of "Dynamic Lights List" to visually cast dynamic light from custom items.

I'll close this since it's working as intended. Thanks for clarifying.
