VR Light

About this mod

In the Resident Evil 2 VR mod, the default flashlight is attached to the left hand and points backward, making it almost unusable. To see anything, you have to stop and awkwardly raise your hand.

To fix this, we can utilize the game's built-in "Camera Light". In the original flat game, this feature is meant for third-person perspective, serving as a subtle lighting tool that illuminates the main character in dark environments so they stay visible. However, for those of us playing in first-person VR, this light is a perfect workaround to replace the broken flashlight. The only problem is that in VR, this light is heavily shifted to the right, illuminating only the right half of your field of view.

This mod fixes this issue by centering the camera light, providing balanced and natural illumination for your VR playthrough.

🌟 Keyboard Toggle Feature 🌟 New!

It fixes the biggest flaw of the camera light (which was always on). You can now completely turn this light ON or OFF at any time in real-time by pressing the "L" key on your keyboard! I recommend to toggle the light using your VR controller. You can achieve this by using third-party mapping software such as a combination of vJoy and JoyToKey. As an optional file, you can download the PDF tutorial in which I described how to do it.

Requirements

REFramework (with VR module) is required for this mod to work.

How to Install and Setup

Download the RAR file.

• []Drag and drop it into your Fluffy Mod Manager folder (Games/RE2R/Mods).[/]

  []Enable the mod in the manager and launch the game.

  - To make this mod work correctly, you need to configure your REFramework settings in game:[/]

• []Enable Manual Flashlight: In the REFramework menu, set the "Manual Flashlight" option to Enable. This allows you to toggle the hand flashlite light on and off by pressing F.[/]

  []Enable Camera Light: In the VR section of REFramework, uncheck (disable) the option "Disable Camera Light".[/]

If you want to fine-tune the position of the light and move it further left or right, you can easily edit the mod file:

• []Go to your main game installation folder.[/]

  []Navigate to:

  \reframework\autorun\[/]

  []Open and edit the file:

  VR Light.lua[/]

  []Locate the following line:

  local new_pos = Vector3f.new(-0. 7, 0. 0, 0. 0)[/]

  []Change the first value (-0. 7) to your liking. The default mod value is set to -0. 7 for optimal centering. And if you want to change it, go for example -0. 6, -0. 8 etc. [/]
