Flashlight Effect?

[Undead_Lives]

There's a doodad, that's a torch, that actually does light up the area around it...

Wasn't that already mentioned in the first or second post, Undead?

depending on what you mean by "flashlight effect"

the torch is a good idea. OR, you could do a customm model with only an omni light... its very easy with Magos' editor.

but if you mean like a flashlight going straight.. as in:
\\|||//
\\|//
\|/
(CHARACTER) (the light only lights up whats forward...)

that'd be hard... but just a custom model with an omni light works (seeing it'll be hardly a Kb big)... I could make it for you if you don't know how tho.

yea like that! how u can only see like:

Line of Sight

\\\\////
\\\///
\\//
\/
O<- Unit

Plus i will have a custom script that turns all lighting around off and map becomes pitch black
meaning a torch affect will work nice i know since i used the doodad torch and attatcked to the unit which worked, but this kinda affect would be better, i used the 'Black' effect in my Blair Witch map

There was mention of modifying some doodads, but as for a preset doodad, no it was not mentioned.

somehow I have this feeling you can make a not-omni light and it might do somthing... but I never use lights so...

Here is what i would do

Untitled Trigger 001
    Events
        Unit - A unit Acquires an item
    Conditions
        (Item-type of (Item being manipulated)) Equal to flashlight
    Actions
        Special Effect - Create a special effect at ((Position of (Matching unit)) offset by ((Facing of (Matching unit)), (Facing of (Matching unit)))) using Abilities\Spells\Orc\Shockwave\ShockwaveMissile.mdl

didnt know what type of light u wanted so i put in random effect
