FlashLight Look

by Wayne Eversole · in · 08/30/2004 (5:56 pm) · 8 replies

Im just wondering how you get that flash light look in your demo where you can see the beam of light going down?
I have installed the other pack that you requested and tryed it with your demo map but it still doesint give the same look.
Just wondering what im missing. :)
Thanks

I also have another question.
Is thir a way to add special effects to a lightning code?
Like every time the lighting strikes it will light up a radious around it untill the strike is over?
Thanks

Hi Wayne,

You need to integrate the Volume Light resource. There are a number of changes you'll need to make for the resource to work like the Lighting Pack demo - check the Install Guide for more details.

John,I haven't bought the pack "yet" but I already have the Volume Light resouce added to my source. Are there any changes that need to that resource to get it working with the lighting pack? Not an issue just out of curiosity.

Wayne,

Email me a copy of your volLight files (with the Lighting Pack changes) and the mission file.
