You are missing
- custom_story_settings.cfg
- Inventory.hps
- global.hps
And remember that custom lantern can only be used in a full conversion.

Its a full conversion, and if i change it to another lantern or the flashlight it works fine.

Did you edit the lantern.ho so that it points to your custom lantern?

Code: (Select All)

Model = "lantern/lantern_name.ent"

The .ent in newlantern.rar is set up as a StaticProp. Go to Settings > User Defined Variables and change it to HandObject.
