Ive looked for light like this and if its there its very faint and perhaps should be cranked up , But im pretty sure there is no light produced at all . Ive done laps around burning ships looking for it ..

Just a thought i had to share ..
The fires (and most effects) are just Sprites which is why they don't give off any light. They would need to be actual 3D objects in order to cast shadows.
