• Half Life 2 Beta weapon muzzleflash light .
    4 replies, posted
After playing hl2 beta and messing around with the weapons I have noticed something different about the weapon effects . For example in hl2 beta when you fired a gun there was a light coming from the muzzleflash that was emitted on the brushes next to you . This effect is also in counter strike if I remember correctly ,but its missing from hl2 and gmod 13 how you may imagine . My question is if anyone here knows any way this can be enabled (unless it comes from the engine itself and cannot be enabled). Thanks :v: [video=youtube;BShaF3RP9fQ]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BShaF3RP9fQ[/video] I dint find an image , but in this video when he shoots you can notice the light around him.
It looks like there is a muzzleflash_light convar, but it doesn't seem to do anything.
I don't think it can be turned on for default sweps but i know the FAS2 swep pack emits muzzle light onto nearby brushes. It probably wouldnt be too hard to code something that detects when any weapon is fired and creates a flash of light at its muzzle (no i won't code it for you, i have bigger stuff on my plate right now)
I know this is an old thread but incase anybody is curious here is a way to turn it on: [url]https://developer.valvesoftware.com/wiki/Muzzle_Flash_Lighting[/url]
