Pulse light deosn't affect weapons or chracter
by Steve Morrison · in Artist Corner · 06/14/2005 (2:03 pm) · 6 replies
This is probably obvious to those in the know. However, as a completely newbie to QuArK and torque I need some help.
I am experimenting with the interior lights placed in Quark. When I place a normal light (omni light for example) and export and place in the starter FPS map, the character and weapons light correctly. when I place a pulse or strob light the character and weapons don't get lit. what am I doing wrong here?
Any advice will be much appreciated, thanks in advance.

Thanks, that sound like it could be the problem. Is there away to make it actually affect the character and weapon though?

It would be a nice feature to add to torque for certain types of lights.
One alternative is to use the lighting pack's lights to do all of your interior lighting. I don't use it, but you won't have a hard time finding lots of praises for it around here ;)

Interior lights do not generate any real in game lights, you are correct they are just doing stuff to the lightmaps.It would be a nice feature to add to torque for certain types of lights.
