ahem

Please add an option to change a light distance. Many people are waiting for this, but almost no one is talking about it

I don't have any flashlight addons besides this one but it is pretty much unusable in firstperson due to it casting playermodel shadows, even with the default half-life 2 viewmodels. The NearZ option literally doesn't do anything, both through the menu and the console.

seems like the flashlight is just off at all times
thatrandom1one1guy 25. aug. kl. 15:53 
cuz i cant see that far when playing in the dark
thatrandom1one1guy 25. aug. kl. 15:53 
is there a way that you can make the flashlight go farther?

Is it really a surprise a flashlight addon may conflict or break the flashlight functions of other addons...
mayonnaise licker 15. aug. kl. 11:40 
This mod seems to break TFA weapon flashlights
Liokindy  [ophavsmand] 9. aug. kl. 18:59 
@Zelen the kiwi I looked in the source engine's code and the behavior you're talking about is all hard-coded and can only be triggered by using the default flashlight. If there is a way to do it, it's probably way beyond my skill
Zelen the kiwi 8. aug. kl. 12:20 
they do not. my best guess is the game tells alyx when your flashlight turns on but if a flashlight mod changes the flashlight at all the game cant tell when its on
Liokindy  [ophavsmand] 8. aug. kl. 8:38 
@Zelen the kiwi I don't think I can, I think that's hard coded behavior. Do other mods work there?
Zelen the kiwi 7. aug. kl. 21:11 
can you please make it work with ep1_c17_00 and ep1_c17_01? the areas with alyx break if your mod, or any other flashlight mod is installed

Nevermind, I just went through my addons to make sure nothing was fucking with it, and Dynamic Flashlight was, oopsie
xtzd0 5. aug. kl. 0:52 
It's not working, even when I apply the config the flashlight doesn't change
Charmyzard 4. aug. kl. 23:17 
Still checking today enabling/disabling.
It appears so since it's disabled. Thanks for the time still! :cupup::demoticon:
Liokindy  [ophavsmand] 3. aug. kl. 12:03 
@Charmyzard The addon doesn't do anything permanent so if it happens with it disabled I'm not sure it was 100% caused by it
Charmyzard 3. aug. kl. 10:59 
Even with the addon disabled, my flashlight is still gone. This didn't happen before I got this mod.
Medguard 2. aug. kl. 12:54 
what if a player holds a weapon will it be still on his head?
Charmyzard 2. aug. kl. 10:45 
My better flashlight doesn't exist anymore :steamsad:
"F" is now useless and I'm in the dark.
Liokindy  [ophavsmand] 1. aug. kl. 15:57 
@Hatman That scares me... Because I fixed that a long time ago, in what map/place did it happen?
Hatman 31. juli kl. 16:22 
i was playing on a dark map with his mod and the flashlight started flickering randomly and i nearly shat myself🥀
Aceratia 24. juli kl. 15:59 
Also because the glow floating above the player looks somewhat strange
Aceratia 23. juli kl. 18:36 
Is the older version of the addon available? Being able to customize where on the player the flashlight comes from was a really good feature
Mushypepito123 21. juli kl. 2:39 
Does this also work for Half-Life 2 Episode 1 campaign?
Liokindy  [ophavsmand] 20. juli kl. 15:56 
I fixed the issues regarding multiplayer, I tested it with 2 Gmod instances on a local server and it seemed to work fine (before I was consistently getting the issue everyone reported)
Omen 18. juli kl. 7:37 
when used in multiplayer it seems like it gets rid of flashlights entirely for clients that AREN'T the server owner and this error log would show up in their console

@NyanCatGamer02 Noted. Seems like I forgot to change the convar
Liokindy  [ophavsmand] 17. juli kl. 20:51 
@Enviyon That's supposed to be the default behavior of the flashlight, but it depends on the player-model, some can be done right and some can be bugged so the flashlight is at your feet
Liokindy  [ophavsmand] 17. juli kl. 20:51 
@Dr. Doodle >:) There was. But it was kinda unintuitive went against the idea of making the flashlight always come from the player's POV
Liokindy  [ophavsmand] 17. juli kl. 20:49 
@Topher2009 Noted. I'll try to fix it (I'll see if I can get help from some friends to test it out in multiplayer)
BazTheSpass_12 16. juli kl. 19:19 
this is really cool cause i've always had kind of a problem with how dim the gmod flashlight is and i really like this cause it makes it brighter.
Mr cheese 15. juli kl. 5:17 
The name of the map in the video?
Topher2009 14. juli kl. 15:41 
mod no longer works in multiplayer
Dr. Doodle >:) 12. juli kl. 4:47 
Coulda sworn there was an option where you could customize where the light beam shines from...
snzh 11. juli kl. 8:29 
downgrade
Enviyon 10. juli kl. 2:41 
I liked it when I could put a flashlight on my left hand or on my right hand
NyanCatGamer02 9. juli kl. 14:34 
besides, there are a lot less settings than i remember, it's hard to fully customize it now
NyanCatGamer02 9. juli kl. 14:29 
Unknown command: cl_betterflashlight_local_player_always_firstperson (x6)

This pops up in the console everytime I change the "Only allow shadows for local-player"
