Little flare/torch problem in DP

[CocoT]

I'm sorry to always come here with my issues with DP... I feel bad because I find it such a kick-ass engine and, well, always coming up with little things that don't work for me makes me feel bad

I had been coding in a mod a torch (based on the tutorial available here) and flares and remember them working quite well under DP. After a HD crash, I reinstalled the mod and for some odd reasons I can't get lights to work properly with them, I mean, I can't tweak graphic options to make them light the room. The weird thing is that they light stuff around them alright under other engines.
Any idea what I could be doing wrong? Here is a little screenie (in white, the torch and in yellow, the flare). Oh, and for the info, I've set some fog (but not setting any fog in doesn't change anything):

Have you tried enabling that options from the menus?
also maybe you have to nuke the config file, because seems some alien cvar fucking everything, like gl_add_huge_dark_all_the_level 1

Other than that, can be the monster from Stargate Atlantis episode 2.

Yeah, I've played with the options as much as I could and checked the config files
The torch and the flares work -a little bit- when really close to the player, but it's really not the way I remember it working (see the old screenshots below (and yes, this is InraRed ))
