[L4D1] Flashlight with large beam cone
 

Just a quick question but also a request:

Can a simple script be created to modify the default settings of "r_flashlightfov" and "r_flashlightfar" to increase the game's own flashlight beam length and cone for all players on map start? I haven't been able to find a simple plugin through the forum's filter search at this link here

Any help would be appreciated,

Sunyata

I believe is client-sided so no.

Marttt, thanks for getting back to me so promptly. I suspected as much, that it only works on the client-side and not the server-side. That's unfortunate. I'm wondering why the SM API can't modify those values. Could it be related to Valve again - similar to when they removed certain glow effects in the past?

Usually client-side means that it only runs at the "client-side" since SM is server-side you can't modify some stuff like this, the workaround is going for addons

Yeah, addons are great for l4d2, but I want this specifically for l4d1. But thanks for the quick reply again. :)
