IFC lantern help?

**The chaser** · 03-17-2013, 09:00 PM

Okay, hello everyone!

I'm having quite some trouble with the Isolated Full Conversions.

THIS IS A DIFFERENT ISSUE THAN MY PREVIOUS THREAD, KEEP IT IN MIND<

So:

Where is the lantern located? I mean, where does the game get the location of the lantern?
How can I change the sanity events? Like, not having night vision but losing sanity, etc.

Any help will be VERY appreciated. I urge this forum to help me (or you will play my secret project later)

The lantern is located in the models folder. Make a copy of the models folder, and put it in your IFC folder. Then in your resources.cfg, make sure it uses the models folder from your IFC, and not from Amnesia.

Code: (Select All)

<Directory Path="/IFC name/models" AddSubDirs="true" />

Now you can change the lantern as you wish, and your full conversion will use the your custom lantern.

If you want to take away the night vision, open the game.cfg and find where the line that says AmbientLightRadius = "6.5" under Player_Darkness. Then change it to AmbientLightRadius = "0".

SEMI-OFF-TOPIC:
Im curious, does this mean we replace any kind of content from amnesia, if we make a simular folder and makes it load from the IFC folder instead? or is there something I have forgotten to think about?.

There are indeed certain other things you can change and replace, but not everything. I wish I could give you a less cryptic answer Smile

but I have no idea how your supposed to work out what you can/can't change (other then laborious trial & error testing), I only know from working with Acies on Spacies that there are things other than the lantern that you can change.

This can be done in the game.cfg file. What exactly to change i don't know but the variables in there have quite nice descriptions.

For your information, the lantern doesn't have any model or animation: Just like Slender.
How could I achieve this? When I open the folder where the entity is (in the level editor) it crashes.

LevelEditor.log:

Spoiler below!

I make it this way because then you will feel more immersed, who puts his hand in his face with a flashlight?

Just make the model to be invisible.
