Ace’s Real Flashlight
This mod overhauls the player flashlight for a more realistic and immersive experience, enhancing visuals without sacrificing the game’s atmosphere.
Key Features
HQ Visuals: Features a new, high-quality texture and realistic material for a more grounded look.
Rebalanced Beam: The unrealistic “lamp” radius of the vanilla flashlight is gone. In its place is a tighter, brighter beam that reaches farther, improving visibility without killing the horror vibe.
True Light Source: The “fake” light on the player is removed. The flashlight now illuminates from its correct position, causing your weapon and arms to cast realistic shadows.
Volumetric Lighting: Fog, smoke, and other atmospheric effects are now properly illuminated by the flashlight, deepening immersion.
Optimized Performance: The new volumetric effects are balanced by removing the old fake light, resulting in minimal performance impact. Feedback is welcome!
