Force light mode

[rabidrage]

I want to use Legacy light mode in my GZDoom mod, and force it in mapinfo.  Do I have to attach it to every map, or can I enter it once and be done with it?  A cursory experiment seems to work, though I can still make subtle changes by fooling around with the menu once the game is running.  None of the menu options are Legacy mode, however.  What exactly is going on there?

The light modes were demoted to map options instead of user options, that's why they are no longer in the menu.

If you want to set it for all maps in your mod, simply put it into a "defaultmap" section at the top of your MAPINFO, if you already have one or more defaultmap section, you have to add it to all of them.

Fantastic.  Thank you!

 

Legacy was the first source port I played and I used it for a long time, so it makes me all kinds of nostalgic to use that light mode.

Is there a way to confirm that it's working after I've started the game?  I don't know if doing this will make it appear in the menu, or if the menu will display something else.  Not to mention if I change it in the menu and it affects the lighting, how would I force it back?
