Hello, this has been a problem with my Gmod forva while.

Whenever I turn my flashlight on, (I have the script) it makes the noise, but won't shine any light.

The only things it lights up are; eyes(vorts and human), hands, coats, and certain materials (metals, fences, canals dirt)

If anyone knows how this can be fixed I'd greatly appreciate it.
 
I've never heard of that issue before. Have you downloaded any material mods recently or went to any shitty servers that would have messed with your clientside files?

Nope. In fact, this was shortly after I reset my computer, (basically factory reset), I had just reinstalled the TnB mods only. It happened a week after that.
 
I don't know if factory resets can affect in-game shit but perhaps it messed up a game you had mounted and unmounted it?

I noticed that it's a thing for all Half-Life 2 as well. Might be my graphics card.
 
If it's across games may as well mess with a few shader settings, update your graphics card drivers, or any other drivers even, try validating the game cache if all else fails?

I'll try that, thanks!
 
I solved it.

I had to roll my graphic drivers back. Wow, I feel like a mainstream pleb for not knowing that.
