Hey angsum a few days ago you had a question about a lightsource, mcguba answered you with use setpos and a headlamp.
   You answered back with a "works great!"
But no one can figure out how you got the headlamp to work, this inflame true doesnt work etc, etc,... Mind helping us out???

[cirkut5732]

By the way I spelled your name wrong...very sorry AngusJM

Have you tried something like:

lightname action ["light On"]

[cirkut5732]

Ill try that line and post back thanks

[bedges]

it doesn't work.

and be warned - this switchlight "on" seems to light up the lamp just fine, until i preview again and then ofp crashes to desktop.

i'd be interested to hear the result of this...

[cirkut5732]

I got this switchlight "on" to work with the workdesk lamp so far, Im gonna try every light i have and post back with the names of the ones that work

[Planck]

IMO switchlight is only intended for streetlights embedded in .wrp files.

When used on lights that are placed in the editor, the light source usually appears half way up {or half way down, depends how you look at it ) the light model.

And then of course it also causes a CTD if previewed more than once.
