Cinematic Lens Flares

Description
Ever wanted to add a bit of flair to your GMOD Realism's? (if that's still even a thing) Then this is the addon.

I tried modelling this off of real anamorphic lenses and I feel I got relatively close enough. It's not perfect and it's not really the prettiest but I can only do so much with sprites until I have to rely on bloom-based post processing flares.

I'm starting to hate Source Egnine...

But how does the game remove the sun bloom effect when it's behind the viewmodel tho?

unfortunately thats a source engine limitation. nothing i can do about it

I found a bug. The flares can be seen even when sun is obstructed by viewmodels.
