[1.16.5] Disable lighting effects for block rendered in TileEntityRenderer

[bradsk88]

For my mod, there is a clump of blocks that can only be seen when the player is wearing a certain item. I have succeeded in implementing that part:

However, I would also like these block clumps to be "lit up" under any lighting conditions.

I have tried setting properties on the block itself, but they don't seem to make any difference to the blocks rendered by the TileEntityRenderer:

public static final Properties PROPS = Properties.
  copy(Blocks.AIR).
  noOcclusion().
  lightLevel((BlockState bs) -> 10).
  emissiveRendering(
    (BlockState bs, IBlockReader r, BlockPos p) -> true
  );

Here's my TileEntityRenderer code (source):

    @Override
    public void render(
      TraparWaveBlock.TileEntity te, float partialTicks, MatrixStack matrixStackIn,
      IRenderTypeBuffer bufferIn, int combinedLightIn, int combinedOverlayIn
    ) {

        ClientPlayerEntity player = mc.player;
        ItemStack helmet = player.getItemBySlot(EquipmentSlotType.HEAD);
        if (helmet.isEmpty()) {
            return;
        }

        for (BlockPos p : te.getShape().getAsRelativeBlockPositions()) {
            renderBlock(p, matrixStackIn, bufferIn,  1.0f);
        }
    }

    private void renderBlock(Vector3i translation, MatrixStack matrixStack,
                             IRenderTypeBuffer buffer, float scale) {
        matrixStack.pushPose();
        matrixStack.translate(
          translation.getX(), translation.getY(), translation.getZ()
        );
        matrixStack.scale(scale, scale, scale);

        BlockState bs = BlocksInit.TRAPAR_WAVE_CHILD_BLOCK.get().
          defaultBlockState();
      
        mc.getBlockRenderer().renderBlock(
          bs, matrixStack, buffer, Integer.MAX_VALUE, 
          OverlayTexture.NO_OVERLAY, EmptyModelData.INSTANCE
        );
      
        matrixStack.popPose();
    }

I have also tried calling `RenderHelper.turnOff()` and `RenderHelper.turnBackOn()` wrapped around the "renderBlock" code.  No joy.

Can anyone help me out? I'd like these blocks to be "full bright" at all times. Thanks.
