Credits  : Dave Taylor for providing the world with a Linux version
           of Quake.  If you're a linux geek, make sure that
           computer game companies know you are.  Encourage them
           to release a Linux version of their games.


Type of Mod
-----------
Quake C  : yes
Sound    : no
MDL      : yes (null.spr is a sprite with a single transparent pixel)

Source Included :  yes (unified diff)


Description of the Modification
-------------------------------

This patch allows you to use a flashlight.  Impulse 12 toggles it on and off.



How to Install the Modification
-------------------------------

Read howpatch.txt for instructions on reconstituting the qc source.
It also describes the basics of compiling.  If you don't have a clue,
try to find one.

Since it seems many people are without clue, I am including progs.dat
in this release of my code.

Technical Details
-----------------

Find where the player is aiming.  Put an invisible sprite there with
EF_DIMLIGHT.  It's not a directed ray of light, but in many cases it
looks credible.

Someone tell me how to make the monsters get mad when I shine the light at
them.
