RE: Custom lantern [Request]

Just a quick question, why would you have to go though all the steps of making a FC when you could just replace the lantern in amnesia with your custom one, i'm going to guess that the reason for this is that it is either too complicated or illegal but I am unsure. :S

Just a normal CS is accessed trough the normal game. With an FC you create all your own entities and you can replace normal amnesia stuff with your own custom things (Menu, lantern, etc.)

I hope I explained that right.

Ah ok, but couldn't you just add another lantern into the actual amnesia files? The custom lantern, that way you would not have to make a whole conversion

Well, you can replace the lantern in Amnesia to what ever you want, but a FC allows you to put in a custom lantern without replacing the file. I personally, don't want to replace the lantern file in Amnesia, so a FC would allow me to use the custom lantern without replace the main files.

Exactly. If you replace the original lantern file, you'll have to replace it again to get it back. If you don't like the lantern, go ahead.

I don't really see the point of make a FC just for the custom lantern, unless your going to add custom textures, assets, models, and so on, but I am not going to tell you what to do. I mean all that stuff is not needed for a FC, but I just see it as a waste of time on your part just for the custom lantern.

It's ok, I do plan on other models and stuff but thanks for the suggestion

RE: Custom lantern [Request]

You don't need to do an FC to use custom models/textures etc, those can be used in CS's without a problem. The lantern does need to be an FC for the reason stated above - you would need to replace the original to use it. Other reasons you might want an FC include editing details in things like game.cfg, which includes sanity settings etc
