Open G_spawn.c and search this (somewhere at the end of the file):

Replace the code with this:
// // Setup light animation tables. 'a' is total darkness, 'z' is doublebright. //     // DAN 28–OCT-98     // 0 normal     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+0, "a");          // 1 FIRE FLICKER (first variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+1, "a");          // 2 SLOW STRONG PULSE     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+2, "a");          // 3 CANDLE (first variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+3, "a");          // 4 FAST STROBE     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+4, "a");          // 5 GENTLE PULSE 1     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+5,"a");          // 6 FIRE FLICKER (second variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+6, "a");          // 7 CANDLE (second variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+7, "a");          // 8 CANDLE (third variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+8, "a");          // 9 SLOW STRONG STROBE     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+9, "a");          // 10 FLUORESCENT FLICKER (first variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+10, "a");     // 11 SLOW PULSE FADES TO BLACK     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+11, "a");          // new kingpin light styles (these are still temp)     // 12 FIRE FLICKER (third variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+12, "a");          // 13 FLUORESCENT FLICKER (second variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+13, "a");     // 14 FLUORESCENT FLICKER (third variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+14, "a");     // 15 REALISTIC FADE (first variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+15, "a");     // 16 REALISTIC FADE (second variety)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+16, "a");               // 17 SLOW STRONG STROBE (out of phase with 9)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+17, "a");     // 18 THREE CYCLE STROBE (cycle 1)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+18, "a");     // 19 THREE CYCLE STROBE (cycle 2)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+19, "a");     // 20 THREE CYCLE STROBE (cycle 3)     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+20, "a");     // END 28–OCT-98     // styles 32-62 are assigned by the light program for switchable lights     // styles 32-62 are assigned by the light program for switchable lights     // 63 testing     gi.configstring(CS_LIGHTS+63, "a"); }
If you now would compile the mod every level should be dark. The only problem with this that you won't start with a flashlight how to fix this. Open p_client.c and search for:
void InitClientPersistant (gclient_t *client)
Somewhere in that function you will see this and add the new code to it:
    // Ridah, start with Pistol in deathmatch     if (deathmatch->value)     {
        item = FindItem("flashlight");                                 client->pers.selected_item = ITEM_INDEX(item);         client->pers.inventory[client->pers.selected_item] = 1;         item = FindItem("pistol");         client->pers.selected_item = ITEM_INDEX(item);         client->pers.inventory[client->pers.selected_item] = 1;         client->ammo_index = ITEM_INDEX(FindItem(item->ammo));         client->pers.inventory[client->ammo_index] = 50;         client->pers.weapon = item;         // Ridah, start with the pistol loaded         ammo = FindItem (item->ammo);         AutoLoadWeapon( client, item, ammo );     }
Now you should start with a flashlight if you compile your mod.
