Alternative title: Early 2008 Flashlights
A recreation of flashlight beams as seen in the old gameplay videos. Not 100% accurate (first person one especially) but it works I guess.
Features: - Longer flashlight beam that helps you see where exactly your teammates are aiming. - First person flashlight is an actual particle now (was reduced to a texture in the retail version). - Can obscure your view sometimes. - beyta.
Notes: - Will look different depending on the campaign/map settings. - Works only in Local Server, because I have no idea how to force "r_flashlight_3rd_person_range" cvar otherwise (it will still work in non-local server but the beam itself will be as short as it was in original). - Might also work in L4D1 too, since "survivor_fx.pcf" (a particle file that contains flashlight beams) is the same as L4D2 one.
You can get E3 version here! You can get gamemodes.txt version (so the mod works for every client in the lobby at the cost of being less compatible with other mods that edit gamemodes.txt) here!
