Street Lights

[john_clark]

I have been trying to create a facility that is lit by streetlights at night.  I can get the lights to light up with the switchlight command, but the light source is far to low.  I want the light source to come from where the lamp is positioned, not halfway up the streetlamp.  

Any ideas on how to fix this?


(I am using CAT_Afghanistan, if that makes any difference.)

Unfortuanately this is a hard one to get around, OFP is buggy like that. The only way to get around it that I know of is to add more lights to the map with wrptool or wrpedit. You basically open the map, add your lights, throw the map back into OFP and youll have street lights that work how there supposed too, Theres more info on wrptool on this forum, I found wrptool easier to use then wrpedit
Im sure smarter patrons here can help you better than I

Alternatively there is a streetlamp addon.

qqqqqq I could never get the addons to work properly, The lights are still halfway down the pole.
Did you get a addon light to work correctly in the mission editor with no unpboing and wrpediting??
