Flashlight

Elodin

I've been trying to make a working torch/flashlight for a week now. The only thing I achieved was horizontally moving spotlight with mesh. I tried downloading some scripts but for some reason, they don't work properly. In any case I need to have a decent tutorial to make a working flashlight.

The issue is - making it move vertically and horizontally like this one.

This works very well with limited options namely:

Radius
Brightness
LightColor
CastShadows

It's a good start though

Is it possible to add an actual model with the light like this?

I have created everything for 3d part.

Cuz what Im trying to do is create a flashlight plus the ability to pick up objects like in physics gun.

P.S. Oh and it doesnt work. It adds light for a second and everything goes black again.

it should be possible to add the flash light to a weapon but it will have to be scripted and I don't know how to go about this, maybe ask over at the UDK forums

Thanks for the tut by the way,

I made a couple of tweaks, so now it works at 75% capacity of what I originally planned. At least it's something.
