Is there a way to check if player is with certain gun inside a shader?

or some true/false var that a shader could check that was send by the player?

I plan (if pocible) to introduce inside the float R_DoomLightingEquation(float light) function a flash light function :)

No. The shader has no means to access game data. If you need that you'll have to change the engine and add a new shader parameter.

The camera position is passed to the shader which is needed for distance calculations. The pitch is not.
