Penumbra Flashlight Port to Amnesia (HD-fied)

[ricky horror]

Alright, so I understand how it work and how to install it. [: But how you you use this to just replace the lantern in a custom story you're making, so that way, people who don't have this flashlight mod installed, will still have the flashlight in the custom story you've made in replace of a lantern?

Many thanks for the flashlight!!!!

that didn't work for me :/ to test it out and make sure, i didn't install the flashlight mod into the actual game's models folder just to see if it'd work for the custom story and show up

do I have to manually add the flashlight's entity to the map and have them pick it up? or can i just place a lantern there and it should automatically be replaced?

also, how to you add custom entities to a map you're making?

Flashlight won't work without a total conversion. In a custom story you cannot add it.

With modeleditor and materialeditor most things can be added.

Good work on the flashlights!

Two things though:
1) Seeing as the flashlight still uses the Lantern sounds, do you guys plan on changing that, to flashlight sounds?
2) Seeing as the flashlight still runs on oil, as the lantern did, do you plan on making oil replacements such as batteries or something? To fit the flashlight.

I'm not sure what you mean... :/
I've opened both those and have looked, can't find anything of the sort.

I was talking about, in LevelEditor, when making your maps, stories, conversion, how to add custom entities to the entity list, so that you won't have to place down a random entity and then swap it for the custom one.

It's in cfg files and I changed that, you can hear it in video I posted earlier. I'm thinking of replacing battery with oil, and making a new HUD, but that's really hard and making batteries instead of oil and make them work sounds frustrating at the moment. Might took me days to implement.

You can always create a new folder, i.e. "MyEntities" and place your custom entities there, and in custom_stories folder you can create an entities folder with inside MyEntities folder with your custom entities. LevelEditor will see them.

Also, about the oil and inventory. We would need to replace the oil model, oil text, and some textures, which is a bit too much imo for a simple mod D:

I copied and replaced all the files, but when I load a savegame and press f, the lantern shows up, not the flashlight! What am i doing wrong?

Dont copy "Penumbra flashlight mod", copy the "models" folder within it
