Possibly Mafia's first lightsaber that glows and all that stuff. Hooray!

I see Vincenzo went to extreme lengths just to provide the necessary weapons for Salieri's crew, and yet he somehow couldn't give Tommy the damn Thompson.  |

They say it's autographed by one of the MVPs of the force  _________________

Congratulations, mod author! When the lightsaber is on screen (or I looking to a direction where a nearby lightsaber model located), my game starts lagging like on a potato computer, but when I put away the lightsaber (or I look away), the game becomes normal again! Please fix this interesting mod.  |

Yeah, AsaSK, this is the actual true. The intensive glow of this model causing the game to lag. Interesting idea, but the execution affects the game negatively (even on a good computer). |

Hi Zsombor, thanks for your feedback! I wasn't aware of this issue as I tested the model in an empty test level, so thank you to you and Firefox for bringing it to my attention. Unfortunately, it's not a case of 'lazy'/'sloppy' work (as has been suggested elsewhere), but instead that my knowledge of scaling 4DS glows is very limited, so I had to fake one long glow effect.
I'm taking the download link down, and hopefully sometime I'll learn how to improve this! If I do, I'll let you know.  _________________

Okay, AsaSK, take your time. Maybe a glowless version as a temporary fix until you somehow improve the original model?
Tip: if you test your mod, always load in the full city (eg. Freeride Extreme) and test there as well.  |

I can offer to use the long BBRD object with a glowing texture. This objects have autorotation.
Flat trees in the countryside are the example. |
