Latest release (for Vintage Story 1.21.1, potentially outdated):
LitShield.zip
1-click install
A simple but useful mod that adds in shields with a little jonas lamp bolted on. No longer must you choose between defence and visibility. (Or accidently leave your lantern behind with one click!)
There is a variant for every type of vanilla shield from crude to blackguard.

I've been using a temporal gear - necklace that adds what looks like a very similar light & color. I don't know where I got it though. Ill have to look.

The lowered durability is odd the shields should be identical to the vanilla shields stat wise as they're mirrors of them. (If you're using Combat Overhaul, that changes the durability of shields and this mod does not have mirrored patches at this time.)
As for manual blocking I dont plan to change any of the behviours with the shields as it is using the same logic as the vanilla ones and I dont think its in the scope of this mod to rework that sort of stuff. (Not to mention I actually really enjoy the default blocking mechanics personally.)
Awesome mod and great idea, a few questions to go along with possible bugs?
We have been using it on our server and have noticed the lit shield has much less durability with a light attached? not sure if this is a bug or deliberate.
Second question is the auto block, would it be possible to have a lit shield that we can manually block with?
Anyways awesome idea!
This made me realize how cool it would be to have actual lantern shields in the game.
Really cool idea!
Combat Overhaul combatibility?
