PK Richie 507 Posted September 8, 2012 You have to put your pistol (If you have one) in your back pack to equip the torch, also the remington has a flash light and they do work. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dallas 5195 Posted September 8, 2012 Torch is Englandish for flashlights. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deceitfulburger 43 Posted September 8, 2012 A torch is a flashlight. (a quick google would have told you that) But I think it depends on how fast your computer is. WhenI play on my shitty laptop, flashlights don't work. But on my gaming desktop, I've never had a problem. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But you need pistol G17 and/or M4A3. Then press L when in hand. I don't know other weapon with torch/flashlight, but G17 and M4A3 working 100%http://dayzdb.com/database/m4a3-ccoandhttp://dayzdb.com/database/g17 Edited September 8, 2012 by Dudeist Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MattTheMont 46 Posted September 8, 2012 take your own advice:"The Flashlight on this gun is non functional."http://www.dayzwiki.com/wiki/M4A1_Hololol well now we're back to my original post which is that i've heard that it does work, and that it doesn't so i'm looking for some reasoning as to why it apparently 'doesn't' work all the timebtw on the DayZDB: http://dayzdb.com/database/m4a1-holo it is in the comments that it does work...

MattTheMont 46 Posted September 8, 2012 well thanks so much for not really helping with anything at all Dankine, i'll remember not to reply ever again to your pointless negative attitude! You're almost as bad as the idiots who make "i'm quitting this broken game WAH WAH" posts. You just have no purpose. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
