HandyTorch
Put a torch or glowstone (or lavabucket) in your hand, and you'll shine through the darkness as you walk around.
To use:
(1) Equip a torch, glowstone, or other light-emitting item in hand.
(2) That's it. No configuration, no permissions, no commands.
Caveats:
There is a minor Minecraft bug in areas of sky-lit water at night. When a light is extinguished, it can leave some glow in the water until another light is presented nearby.
This version does not try to compute overlap of light sources. There may be some cases where it acts funny if two people are on the same block, lighting and extinguishing their own lights.
This is an adaptation (and resurrection) of a couple of older dynamic lighting plugins. Most have been discontinued. I've rewritten the code from scratch, after seeing how they fooled CraftBukkit and Minecraft into introducing a light in the world at the player's location.
Mine is 1.3.1 compatible!

Enjoy
Note(creator of Handytorch you can have the source if you like)
Sorry guys... But this seems to be done. This Plugin can not work because the Method it used not working. Lighting were calculating in Client...
Ok... I have a better Idea... I make my own... Can take some hours...
Soucecode Please. I like to update it.

So :-( ?
Please update!
Yeah would love an update. This will lag so much less now that lighting is handled client-side.
Where is the Update?
Great! Can you update it? Pleasee
@nurwin22
Agreed!
Would love to have this as a VIP perk for my server, so permissions are a must. Thanks much!
hariedo! great plugin! thankyou!
please add permissions support ^.^
@Shooty, I've tried this on bukkit build #1797 - it still works. The latest dev build is #1798, so its still likely to work on that to.
It would be really nice to see this continuing because, as you said, every other lightning plugins seems to be discontinued :/ There are just too much updates in Minecraft that distroys plugins Thanks for the hard work so far!
Can you update for latest dev bukkit build ?
@squeezer2k
this is because as you are walking it is like someone is spamming torches place/destroy, the lag can be the server has to upload way more data and that your players machines are struggling with minecraft, tell them to switch off smooth lighting and see if that helps, also lowering the servers chunk render can help with upload issues (but this is worst case i suppose) try the lighting thing before lowering ur server render
hope it helps
don't know if the following issue is already known: when sb takes one of the light-emitting items in his hand (including oneself) the game starts lagging (for all ppl. who are around).
Could you make this plugin compatible with permissions? I absolutely love it, but it's a shame I can't give this to specific players.
