changing lantern properties? - gosseyn - 09-21-2010
i would like to know if it is possible to modify radius, intensity and stuff like that of the lantern light, because i find it a bit to luminous for my taste. Thanks.

Check models models\hand_objects\lantern\lantern.ho

Thanks, i am modifying some of the variables but it doesn't affect the game (i do reload map, not quick), do i have to do something more?
lantern.ho
Code:
<HandObject>
<Main
Model = "hand_lantern.ent"
Type= "LightSource"
/>
<Settings
OffsetScale = "0.1 0.1 0.1"
OffsetRotation = "-15 -5 -46"
OffsetPosition = "-0.0105 -0.0035 0.002"
HandsAnim_Idle = "Lantern_Idle"
HandsAnim_Draw = "Lantern_Draw"
HandsAnim_Holster = "Lantern_Holster"
AttachBoneName = "attachpoint"
FadeInTime = "10"
FadeOutTime = "10"
HasSwayPhysics = "true"
MaxSwayVel = "15"
SwayAngleLimits = "-13 90"
SwayDownAngleLimits = "-7 80"
SwayPinDir = "0 0 1"
SwayGravity = "12"
SwayFriction = "1.0"
SwayPlayerSpeedMul = "0.015"
SwayCameraRollMul = "1"
SkipSwaySubMesh = "handle_wood"

it is working, i had to exit and relaunch the game, not only reload the map. But is there any way to affect only the light and not the model? Because for example, if i change OffsetScale from (1 1 1) to anything else, i get strange shadows, like if there was no falloff, and the model is altered too. Is there a way to affect only the light(radius and color mainly) ? Thank you!

Yeah i also would be interested in how to change the light properties. From sniffing around it seems the light is hardcoded and i did not find any way to modify anything, i started to modify the light falloff texture (the projected texture) and the changes where (after restarting the game) not visible.
T'is a shame, i really like to see a lantern which casts some nice falloff textures.

The light is in the entity file for the lantern if I recall correctly.
So just change the entity file hand_lantern.ent using model editor.
