If it does flicker, then you can do it like I wrote it here, and it won't flicker, but with the ALIOXIA's addon or using the "Muzzleflash Light Disable v2" addon. I guarantee that it works with the original one. For some reason it was removed from Workshop though, so you would have to get it from elsewhere.

There may be possibly also other solution to have it removed or at least reduced I think.

Ahoj/Hi/Privet,

for anyone who wants to make it work and experiences flashlight flickering when shooting, I advice trying out updated "Muzzleflash Light Disable v2" addon, initially uploaded by ALIOXIA. It can be found in the Workshop. If it still does flicker, then do this:

1. Install a map, such as "Gun Range", close the game, start the game and wait until all addons are loaded.

2. Select and start "Single player" game of the "Gun Range" (or possibly other map).

3. You can do about 3 test shots. It should work properly.

4. Return to Menu, and you can play online. It's going to work. It certainly does work for the original addon.

If you close the entire game, then you need to repeat this process.

Ame, i did what you said but it doesn't work, even i installed both addons, and the flashlight stills blinking
anny 17 Aug, 2022 @ 8:10am 
no matter what you do, the flashlight will always flicker because it involves in shotgun muzzle flash

I recommend using this: https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2844745391

I downloaded this mod..... do I need to add the commands below to get it to properly work?
TheGamingVoid 25 Sep, 2021 @ 10:22pm 
For a detailed update of this guide, the following details are necessary:

---------------------------------------------------------------------
this code can be added to your own autoexec.cfg

muzzleflash_light 0 //-
---------------------------------------------------------------------

These other 2 can be added as launcher since both are lines that need cheats activated, but it is not necessary to write cheats in the console, they simply add them as launch parameters as follows

+r_flashlightmuzzleflashfov 0 +r_flashlightmuzzleflash 0


>.< gracias a Zoey por el mod!----:steamhappy:

It works, but there is one weird thing. The flashlight will still flicker until I load the game on my local server. After I run local server it will work in 100%... anyone same thing?

@David, I love having muzzleflash disabled without the flashlight flicker. But the add-on that you linked doesn't touch the shotguns so they don't seem fit with all the other guns.
joseph 22 Jul, 2021 @ 4:15am 
there's a mod like this but without the flashlight flickering https://steamhost.cn/steamcommunity_com/sharedfiles/filedetails/?id=2356757618

Wow Zoey!

is okay thank you,:steamhappy:
TheGamingVoid 9 Apr, 2021 @ 7:58am 
that code is a launch command

r_flashlightmuzzleflash: 1:, "cl", "launcher":

go to steam library and right click left4dead2 and select properties

locate launch parameters and add that code as follows:

+ r_flashlightmuzzleflash 0

Also in your autoexec you can add this other command:

muzzleflash_light 0

so you will definitely not see the flashlights of the shots again, but you will see the effect of fire at the exit of the cannon

gamemodes.txt Why not work?
Crishan 26 Mar, 2021 @ 7:16am 
Huff me costó encontrar este mod :) gracias al creador por el mod esta muy bueno
TheGamingVoid 21 Feb, 2021 @ 12:46pm 
1 create a text file and call it:

gamemodes.txt

2 edit it with notepad or any other text program and write this code:

r_flashlightmuzzleflash 0

3 save changes

4 place that file that you created named gamemodes.txt, in the following path:

C: \ Program Files (x86) \ Steam \ steamapps \ common \ Left 4 Dead 2 \ left4dead2 \ scripts

that's all.
Nicepool 9 Feb, 2021 @ 11:16am

gamemodes.txt is is the heart of the various mods. I don't want to made it, but I want you to do it by yourself because if you guys play it with other mods, just put the command "r_flashlightmuzzleflash 0"
on
"
convar
{
r_flashlightmuzzleflash 0
}
"
whatever game mode you want like coop,realism,survival,versus,scavenge,mutation

by root/scripts/gamemodes.txt
silly&smelly 25 Oct, 2020 @ 5:13pm 
Hello guys! I think I managed to recreate V2 version of this addon with the newest gamemodes.txt file in it! Download this file ---> https://files.fm/u/aq2swgn5 then put it into your Left4Dead2/left4dead2/addons. It should appear on your addon list as either MuzzleFlash Disable or muzzle flash disable v2. I hope it's gonna work for u guys ; ]
LEE 25 Oct, 2020 @ 12:40pm

Nicepool 25 Oct, 2020 @ 11:55am

nice mod, the original muzzleflash light is making me blind while playing this game at night
Joseloq real 19 Apr, 2020 @ 12:35pm 
someone explain what reference with to archive gamemodes.txt file.
Breezy 18 Apr, 2020 @ 10:15pm 
Seems like some people are giving you some flak for this mod. I just want to let you know that it works perfectly for me! I did put the command in my gamemodes.txt too, which improves my experience more because the flashlight flicker tended to mess with my head too. I haven't seen any other visual errors from this, no artifacts or any glitchy effects. This mod even improved my performance when using automatic weapons or pistols. Thanks again!
Master Jintar Lucksheen 8 Apr, 2020 @ 10:22pm
