Lighthouse with working searchlight ? - whiskey111 - 07.02.2008

I think it can be great mod if lighthouse hase working search light. Just image this nice picture, when you flying in the dusk, low level fly, and you see light form lightouse.
I really don't know is this possible.
Does someone can make this ?

That, is a damn good idea!.. :mrgreen:

Ah, but would that be realistic in wartime? If they had blackouts in the cities, why would they give the enemy a point to navigate by, for their night raids?

All US lighthouses were out for the duration.

he just wants it for just flying around sight seeing

while we are at it, would be cool if building windows textures had dim lighting at night

You might be able to make a building with transparent windows via an alpha channel, and throw some of the light objects inside (or even a camp fire).

you have a good imagination there spud....

but simply using the existing light objects in the FMB is probably easiest for his requirements

Hi!
Yes, you can! but you must edit the mission file in notepad and adjust the object's height (the yellow coloured variables to lift tehe objects up/down) , this only works for lights and smokes not other objects.

I assumed he was talking about a ROTATING light inside a light house. :oops:

- whiskey111 - 08.02.2008

Yes. I talked about rotating light - maybe from searchlight which we can put on airfield... ?
