Steam Community :: Fancy Lanterns [42.13.1 not yet compatible, in progress]

somewhatfrog [author] Dec 21 @ 1:42am

@Depresión Severa slots activation moved to the options (mods tab). I will update the description once I confirm that everything is working correctly. The core part is ported already, so there should be no issues with saved games going further.

Depresión Severa Dec 20 @ 8:41pm

Well I take it back, Fancy belt slots activation option dissapeared, loading a saved game with slots activated will crash game with "an unexpected error has ocurred screen".
Starting a new game with mod active will have no problem but belt and backpacks slots option will not appear.

somewhatfrog [author] Dec 19 @ 6:39pm

@Depresión Severa it should be fine in SP, I am working on MP support

Depresión Severa Dec 19 @ 6:30pm

Is there any trouble?, I'm playing b42.13.1 with this fancy mod and no errors so far

Beaumont Dec 17 @ 8:51am

oh, tyvm

somewhatfrog [author] Dec 16 @ 6:15pm

@Beaumont you need to enable slots on regular belt or holster or any bag. In b41 data is stored on character in 42.13 this doesn't work atm I will push update soon which fixes that.

Beaumont Dec 16 @ 5:32pm

there is no fancy belt in the item list for the lantern

Depresión Severa Dec 11 @ 1:42pm

thanks, godspeed

somewhatfrog [author] Dec 11 @ 1:31pm

yeah it did, i will add support asap

Depresión Severa Dec 11 @ 1:28pm

b42.13 might broken the lantern :(

Sym Oct 28 @ 12:46am

Oh that's where it is. Thank you so much! This is a must have for me in B41 :)

somewhatfrog [author] Oct 27 @ 5:50am

@Sym right click on the belt and enable the slots.

Sym Oct 27 @ 5:42am

How come the fancy belt slot doesn't appear on my end? I have a belt

kev_cat Sep 17 @ 3:12pm

♥♥♥♥ the stupid extra belt slots

JENOVA Absolute Sep 2 @ 6:32pm

@somewhatfrog Thank you.

somewhatfrog [author] Sep 2 @ 12:19pm

@JENOVA Absolute when light source is attached the light cannot be seen by other players without a special mod (I don't remember the name). But if equipped in hands then all players will be able to see the light without any mods, this is vanilla behavior.

JENOVA Absolute Sep 2 @ 11:38am

I remember when I played multiplayer while back, some modded light sources could only be seen by the person wearing them. Can other players see the light these lanterns give off?

somewhatfrog [author] Jul 9 @ 2:27pm

@SDgamer shouldn't, at least not because of this mod

@Gothic Wizardry once this feature is part of the vanilla game I will look into adding it

Calamity Jul 9 @ 12:06pm

would it be possible in the future to add a version that lets you place them lit up?

SDgamer Jun 21 @ 10:12pm

someone made an B42 version of Better Belts. Will that conflict?

somewhatfrog [author] May 23 @ 4:24am

@Czezary nope

Czezary May 23 @ 4:20am

Can lanterns be placed on the ground to provide light?

elyxaria May 21 @ 4:22pm

@somewhatfrog like to sign a thing to get that color in owo

Chromium May 11 @ 8:23am

Pepe is that you? what are you doing here?

somewhatfrog [author] Apr 27 @ 3:02pm

+ now it is possible to attach the fancy light sources without the belt as long as holster is present

vanilla belts take `Belt` slot and holsters take `BeltExtra` slot, some modded belts take `BeltExtra` slot for instance Tactical Belt from the Vanilla Gear Expanded

rawgu Apr 25 @ 7:57am

thanks beautiful

somewhatfrog [author] Apr 24 @ 5:27pm

@rawgu I'll look into it

rawgu Apr 23 @ 11:30pm

Could you make this compatible with Vanilla gear expanded? Specifically the tactical belt? <3

Juniper Mar 8 @ 2:04pm

@somewhatfrog Hi there! Would you like to sign my petition?

somewhatfrog [author] Mar 7 @ 4:23am

@elyxaria petition?

elyxaria Feb 25 @ 12:38am

Petition to add lilac (white + purple) to the color list?

Panda Feb 5 @ 2:48pm

Ah, right. That new slot really is the most elegant way to support the most stuff. Thanks again!

somewhatfrog [author] Feb 4 @ 2:40am

@Panda thank you! All bags have different dimensions, this means that I will have to manually create attachment coordinates for every existing bag and continue doing so for all new and modded bags. Which is an enormous amount of labor. The existing bag attachment point universally fits most bags.

Panda Feb 4 @ 2:13am

This mod is so good. Thank you! Would it be possible to make the lanterns attach to the backpack bottom slot?

somewhatfrog [author] Jan 21 @ 3:31pm

@McSlappy welcome! lol

McSlappy Jan 21 @ 3:27pm

Love that update. Tired of cranking my lanterns or spawning 100 and cycling through them XD

somewhatfrog [author] Jan 21 @ 3:05pm

+ added b42.1.0 support
+ added QoL for servers, Fancy light sources won't loose charge when used by admins

somewhatfrog [author] Jan 21 @ 1:07pm

The 42.1.0 might have broken the mod, fix will come soon.

leshi49 Jan 5 @ 5:21am

will it light up if placed on the ground?

somewhatfrog [author] Jan 5 @ 3:03am

+ fixed two-handed weapons re-equipping

@Giacco

Giacco Jan 4 @ 7:41am

@somewhathfrog ty for b42 update

somewhatfrog [author] Jan 4 @ 4:16am

@JulesAndromeda not yet, but will be looked into in the near future

JulesAndromeda Jan 4 @ 4:03am

Can you place it, on the world to provide light or it needs to be equipped?

somewhatfrog [author] Jan 4 @ 3:50am

small whoopsie, two-handed weapons not being re-equipped properly will be fixed shortly

somewhatfrog [author] Jan 4 @ 2:56am

+ added b42 support

b41 and b42:
+ improved the fade out with charge decrease
+ recharging now happens in the secondary hand
+ lanterns now return to the attach point after charging
+ performance optimizations

somewhatfrog [author] Dec 20, 2024 @ 11:57am

Hey everyone, b42 support is planned but no eta until some bugs which prevent me from working on it are fixed

@유사라 shouldn't be unless some of the the mods you use adjusts the use delta of all possible light sources?

유사라 Dec 14, 2024 @ 8:50pm

Is there a conflict with other mods? It worked out at first, but at some point, the batteries in the fancy lantern start to run out very quickly

somewhatfrog [author] Dec 1, 2024 @ 7:45am

@McSlappy hey, this feature is provided by Tidy Up Meister mod which I recommend using in the description

McSlappy Nov 27, 2024 @ 2:50pm

I just realized i didnt say please XD. my bad, i was pretty concentrated at the time. Can you please add a feature or tweak the code*. thank you very much for your time XD

McSlappy Nov 27, 2024 @ 11:29am

Hey @somewhatfrog, Can you add a feature or tweak the code so that the items you were holding in your primary/secondary get requipped after recharging the lantern? instead of keeping the lantern equipped.
