Thanks to all those who helped! I've just played the demo of Silent Hill
(briefly, I wanted to play MGS), and noticed the way the torch acts on the
shirt of the character (don't know name, not really bothered, rather play
MGS!) is almost exactly what I want. Does anyone know if this is a method
restricted to the Pro Development Kit, or if I could do it on the Yaroze?
Also, the easiest way to do the light seems to be the MGS way of just
allowing a small circle to be seen, with the outside fading to dark, as in
MGS (quite early, crawling through air ducts, I think!).

Thanks if anyone knows how Silent Hill got that amazing effect
