[1.15.2] entity as light SOURCE

[Niprow]

I want my entity are a light source not only be bright (with texture).

It's a living entity with a SegmentedModel.

Are there examples?

Is it a question of a RenderType or something else?

And what do I have to do to change the light to blue?

Colored light and entities as light sources are not possible without changing how minecrafts light engine works. you could however look at the code of the optifine mod which is open source as far as I know because optifine does have glowing entities. This is all client side stuff though so the entity light wont prevent mobs from spaning or something like that.

thanks even if it's frustrating

You could look at the source for the Dynamic Lights mod and update it yourself to 1.15.2. Lighting hasn't changed much between the two, although from memory the mod does poke around fairly deeply in the vanilla code so you might need to bend your brain around it for a while.
