I have this problem too. It's not as nearly as much of a problem on brighter maps like gm_construct as it is for darker maps...say slender_forest or gm_shambles for example. So it's a little bit distracting, especially on darker maps, and tends to break the immersion of eerie horror-themed/dark atmospheric maps such as hc_chapter1 (which I play a lot of), or just dark maps in general.

The default flashlight is coming on with this addon, how can I fix this? I like this addon on my server

The Flashlight event on pac3 not working with this addon (i tried with and without the addon)

Hi. I have a LUA error when I click on the button "Load config".
I tried disabling all my addons, but I still have that LUA error.

Here is the error:

[Third Person Flashlight] lua / autorun / client / tpf_cl.lua: 187: Attempt to call method 'SetFiles' (a nil value)
   1. OpenTPFLoadFileDialog - lua / autorun / client / tpf_cl.lua: 187
    2. DoClick - lua / autorun / client / tpf_cl.lua: 511
     3. unknown - lua / VGUI / dlabel.lua: 218

Sorry for my bad English.
Thank for your reply.

Dynamic shadows dont work in firstperson flashlight while TPF is enabled. Therefore only other player flashlights while in First person project Dynamic shadows from props/npcs/players.

They do work. You simply can't see them because flashlight placed "right-in-eye".

Right so that would be a bug then.

Probably need a fix. Will take a look.

Cool.

I was going to post the smae bug as JAMIEX1988 but it seems he's also having that problem. I can edit the settings of the light at will, but I can't saver neither load because of that lua error. Also could you implement a "flashlightnear" variable? sometimes the character's head get in the way.

Broken. The customization menu dosen't work. or save anything. It gets an error. Basically a similar bug to Jamiex1988. I think you should try to fix these bugs ASAP. It's still broken on my end.

Why is the flashlight completely static and it doesn't change shapes or cast any shadows in first person?
