Lightning Rendering Feature?

by Jared Hoberock · in Torque Game Engine · 02/25/2002 (12:14 am) · 2 replies

I have noticed that lightning only seems to strike if the camera is pointed at the top of the bolt. For instance, if I'm looking up in the sky at a lightning bolt it will continue to strike at whatever frequency is in the mission script. However, if I say look down across the horizon and the origin of the lightning is not in my field of view, the strikes stop. Is it supposed to work this way? If so, does anyone know an easy fix?

thanks,
J

Hi, I followed you guys' 80+ post thread on lightning and tried to make all the changes you did. I'm using release 1_1_1.
