You can use the commands sm_glarepos and sm_glareang to modify the positions. If you get better ones, post them, I'm not wasting anymore time trying to align everything. The models are missing attachment points so looking down or moving will make the alighnment break etc. You're using custom models which might have different attachment points to the games stock models.

I'm not adding a constant timer to check everyones model if it has changed. Unless CSM provides a forward to notify when the model has changed, it's going to break like that. I don't care. Live with it or fix it yourself.

Because I didn't know how to parent stuff to weapons in 2012. It's not simple like parenting to other entities.

Version 2.0 has proper beam placement for all weapons attached to the flashlight and no more manual positioning. Also added client prefs to save the color and a menu to select color. Release is on hold until I know exactly whats needed to finish a new Attachments_API plugin which will be required to run 2.0. Attachments_API also fixes the Flashlight/Hats plugins and other models attached to players when they change model using CSM. Again, not releasing until I can finalise what's required by another new plugin.

Plugin heavily updated:

2.0 (30-May-2020)
    - Glare beam now properly aligned with all weapon flashlight attachment points for all survivors.
    - Glare position fixed when a players model has changed. Does this by dropping all weapons/items for 0.1s.
    - Optionally uses "ThirdPersonShoulder_Detect" plugin to enable/disable beam when changing view.
    - Removed commands "sm_glareang" and "sm_glarepos". No more manual positioning required.
    - Suggest changing cvar "l4d_glare_width" value to "5" to correctly match flashlight size.
    - Thanks to "Lux" for the bone merge method. Adapted from "Incapped Crawling" plugin.

Now requires the Attachments API plugin.

hi silvers, I found a bug here after I install this plugin [L4D2]Survivor_Legs(1.4.4 - 1/07/20)
I think maybe it conflicts with leg model.

This seems more like it would be a conflict with custom weapon models not containing the "flashlight" attachment point. The legs should have no affect and they work for me with the Glare plugin.
