Moving Light Sources Mod 1.12.2 is a mod where torches and all other things that emit light will do so while being carried. Especially useful is that a torch can be carried in your off-hand lighting the way while you work with tool in your main hand. Also, burning entities cast light and for added fun torches can be used as weapons and burn entities. Dropped items that represent light-emitting blocks will emit light. Basically all the things you wanted to do with torches is now possible.

Features:
- All Light-Emitting Blocks can be used: If the player is holding (in either hand) any light-emitting block, the immediate area around the player will light up with same light level as the related block. Light-emitting blocks from other mods should work as long as their default state is to emit light.
- Torches can be used as Weapons: As an option, torches now can be used as a weapon to burn entities.
- Burning Entities Emit Light: It adds a lot of realism to see burning entities emitting light. This includes flaming arrows.
- Some Enchantments Emit Light: “Fire type” enchantments (Flame and Fire Aspect) will emit light if player is holding item with such enchantment.
