Here is a video of what I'm talking.


It's not just that plugin, it's any plugin that spawns those light glow entities. Infected flow, fire glow, so on.

What's the reason behind it? It only happens on certain map locations.

Maps too detailed, too many vertices etc? Engine not designed for more than a few dynaimic lights, which is why you only see your own flashlight casting a shadow and not teammates. Disable on those maps or don't use the plugin, it's not something I care about and I don't see it ever being fixed unless Valve fix the engine client side.

Hello Silvers. I have as an offer. It is inconvenient to constantly write a flashlight. Can you add a new update. make a menu with a selection of flashlight?

This has already been fixed, you're using an old version.

Think I'll settle with disabling plugin on those maps then.

I have the plugin installed, and I'm sure it's working fine. But I can't see my friends' flashlight. What should I do?

BTW I have translated pharses into Chinese, do u need it?

Try to check your SM log for errors, but the plugin works fine and I had never that kind of issue.
Ask your friends to type something like !light 255 0 0 and check if appears a red light around then, or try yourself and check if the ground appears more red. Also, type again (you or your friends) and check if the light turns off.

As you said that you translated the phrases, try using the version of the original file, as there may have been some errors during the translation and this could have broken the plug-in for you.
