Showimg drawaslight?

JkWhoSaysNi · #1 03-11-2007, 11:41 PM

is it possible to show an image (or poly) as a light?

I tried all 4 modes but it doesn't act the same as an NPC with drawaslight.

Yes. I'm sure that it's possible.

PHP Code:


			
with(findimg(index))

  red = #; //And so on

It should as long as you set the alpha to less then one

Last I checked, setting it to 3 had the same effect as drawaslight.

edit: nevermind.

I figured out the problem. I had to set the layer to 3 so it was above the seteffect()

Yes layer 3 is the drawaslight-layer

0 - drawunderplayer
1 - normal
2 - drawoverplayer
3 - drawaslight
4+ - stats layer

So, will layer 3 actually remove some seteffect haze? Or does the combination of the two just make gray muck?

It kinda does, I was trying to negate the seteffect() on an area denoted by a showpoly() I could get it to lighten but whatever I tried the colours had lost some saturation.
