Create a Flashlight

by Dennis in 3D · in Technical Issues · 12/05/2007 (2:57 pm) · 3 replies

Does anyone know how to create a flashlight effect in TGE 1.52. I am designing a flashlight and need my character to hold it so that it illuminates the way. I am open to suggestions, comments, bad ideas...

Cheers - )

You could create a dynamic light via script and mount it to a mount point on the player model. However, in TGE dynamic lights cannot be spotlights, so the effect won't be exactly what you are looking for, though a dynamic point light could still be done.

There's a resource. Search for flashlight.
