Streetlamp

[sheltem]

 ;D

Hello
I'm trying to switch on a street lamp via a trigger...
it works quiete well: alert goes off lamp goes on... the only problem the light itself appears half way up the lamp mast and not on top!!!  
I' using  this switchLight "On"  

Has anybody come across this before??

I' using  this switchLight "On"

That should usually work but, is it an addon?! Try using this inFlame true, instead ...Like with fire's.

hi, if this switchLight "On" works, and it is an addon, would you mind sharing it with me / us ?? i could do with something like this

Thanks,

Rhys

Hey Rhys... why don't ya use reallights 1.0 from aef-kampagne, No 10000W lightbulbs like in original ofp ;D. They're real nice... I think that this is the streetlights addon sheltem is using, becaus I did the same mistake with theese once... u have to use this inflame true to get em' to work properly, not switchligh "on" .

I'm posting an english version of the readme to any other potential people hwo may download this addon. I've translated it myself with some help from free online translators... in other words expect the english to be pretty shitty as I didn't dare edit it so much ;D anyways ... Here it is .

// Reallights Addon V1.0 for Operation Flashpoint V1.20+
// by Lester (lesterpgruber@gmx.de)

works with Flashpoint V1.20+

general:
========

On multiple peoples desire, I've decided,
to release the Reallights as independent Addon.
(whereby real is naturally somewhat exaggerated, It is only as real as the OFP engine allows it to be.)

use, compatibility:
==================

All lamps originally come out of LocMEA V1.48,
uses different Classnames now however to avoid Classname conflicts, that appeared since
Resistance.


Classnames:

LRLCeilingWhite      - Ceilinglamp with cover:  white environment light.
LRLCeilingRed      - Ceilinglamp with cover:  red environment light. (combat illumination)
LRLDeskWhite      - Table lamp with minimal white environment light
LRLDeskRed      - Table lamp with minimal red environment light (combat illumination)
LRLStreet1White      - Streets lantern 1 (greyish\white environment light)
LRLStreet2White      - Streets lantern 2 (greyish\white environment light)
LRLStrahlAWhite      - Spotlight (very bright, white environment light)
LRLGBWhite      - simulates a white light bulb, that radiates no environment light
LRLGBRed      - simulates a red light bulb, that radiates no environment light
LRLGBGreen      - simulates a green light bulb, that radiates no environment light
LRLGBBlue      - simulates a blue light bulb, that radiates no environment light
LRLGBYellow      - simulates a yellow light bulb, that radiates no environment light
LRLGBPink      - simulates a pink light bulb, that radiates no environment light
(The "light bulbs" are only thought as eye-candy, ideal for 'Lamp-chains')

All objects are in the editor under 'Ammo' and are localized German English.
To activation the lights, enter: this inflame true ...into the Init-line of the object.
(this is only the simplest way to illuminate the lamps;))

Much fun therewith and good maps...

Greetings go to the AEF-Crew, the colleagues of Mapfact and Mr-Murray.

The problem with the Reallights addon is the lights flicker.  Very annoying to me.

[Burn]
