How to add the new Flashlight to your inventory.
Press "~" to open the console and then type...

"give flashlight" without quotations.

It's neat seeing projected shadows casting on the OG looking game. Shadows will cast behind any object, enemy or edge of a wall/box. They actually made this flashlight a item pickup at the start of one of the original expansion campaigns but not for any others from what I can tell, enjoy.

大神,请问如何才能关闭游戏中武器开火时枪口产生的环境光照效果,游戏中开火的时候(尤其在暗处),周围环境会有强烈的光照,特别是霰弹枪类,火箭筒导弹也会在飞行中产生环境光照,这个特效太刺眼了,而我无法在游戏设置中找到关闭这个效果的选项,请问是否有办法关闭游戏中的特效:steamsad:

Great God, may I ask how to turn off the ambient lighting effect generated by the muzzle of weapons when firing in the game? When firing in the game (especially in the dark), there will be strong lighting in the surrounding environment, especially for shotguns. Rocket launchers also generate ambient lighting during flight, which is too dazzling. I cannot find the option to turn off this effect in the game settings. Is there a way to turn off the special effects in the game
Please help me:steamsad:

This remaster is the same as the original Q1 remaster. cheats do not disable achievements.

Doesn't Disable Achievements Can Confirm

You need to put the command to bind the key to in double quotes, for example:
bind l "give flashlight"
bind MOUSE2 "use flashlight"

Thanks for this, playing on the Steam Deck and this game is much darker than I remember, I remember using the pistol to light some areas but seems like I have to do it a lot more now then I did then, or maybe I’m just much less patient than I used to be haha

I added the key binding to autoexec.cfg and that works great but adding the give command doesn’t seem to work, I assume because you actually have to start a campaign or map before you can use the command. Is there anyway to add “give flashlight” to the autoexec or another file to automatically give the flashlight all the time? Typing it in the console is kinda annoying on the steam deck.

It does look great, I even asked a dev about putting it into the game somehow to use in OG campaigns without the use of a console. They even went as far as to give it a 3D model and make it a pickup, it's at the start of 'The Reckoning' campaign.

And Trevor, you're welcome!

For the record, console commands won't disable achievements. I had to use noclip to get unstuck on a specific place (just because I was making a comparison between the original and the re-release to see if it was fixed - it wasn't), and the achievements are fine, so I don't think it disables achievements.
