Under the torchlight

Post by J. Trudel »

Is it just me or torchlight and lightspells totally kill the ambient mood of the dungeon ? Did anyone found a way to modify the torchlight (on self) or the lightspell ?

I guess the next best thing will be to script unremovable torch.

Check out this thread :) kill light spell, and natural color ceiling lights (in case you dont like the blue in some of your dungeon) and dont want torches available to the party.

You can also try Neikun's wall lanterns, I just replaced 90% of the torches in my dungeon with them.

Edit: these are the ones I used. Be sure to put a torch in.

Hey Batty, check this one out.
Torch holder, can't click the torch inside it/ can't see a torch handle.

CODE: SELECT ALL
defineObject{
name = "lantern_torch_holder", --does not show torch handle in it. Cannot click torch inside.
class = "TorchHolder",
model = "assets/models/env/wall_lantern.fbx",
anchorPos = vec(0.05, 1.53, 2),
anchorRotation = vec(0, -20, -90),
placement = "wall",
editorIcon = 84,
}


-Just don't place them empty, or when you click it with a torch, you won't get your torch back.

Edited to prevent it from going through the wall behind it.
The FORCE is with me!!!

Thanks, I might use theses, however I would like much more if I could just tweak how the ``Party light`` works. A dim yellowish flickering light would be so awesome.

Unfortunately I don't think you can alter the torch light itself. Wish we could do that, who knows, maybe the devs can implement this into the next update (though often if obvious features like this one are left out it's because they would need to rewrite tons of code to get it working, so I don't have much hope :().
