I'll show you how to make torch light in hands without mods in Minecraft.
To get this dynamic lighting, we need to download something.
It's OptiFine.
Go to the link below.
Select the version you need right here.
Click download.
Wait 5 seconds.
And click skip.
Then click download again.
Double-click on the file.
Now, click install.
As you can see, a message has popped up telling us that we need to install the required version of Minecraft first.
Go to the Minecraft Launcher.
Click "Installations" here.
And then click "New Installation."
Select the version we need here.
And click create.
Launch it once.
Then close the game.
Now, click install on the file again.
And if we go back to "Installations" right here.
We will see that the OptiFine version has appeared.
Now, launch that version.
Next, enter your world.
For the next step, press "Escape."
Then go to "Options."
And click on "Video Settings" here.
All that's left is to switch "Dynamic Lights" to "Fast" or "Fancy" mode.
As you can see, torches now light up when they are dropped on the ground or when I hold them in my hand.
That's all.
Thanks for watching. Goodbye.
