Light pilot lod without memory lod?

[abs 2]

Hi all,

Is there a way to light up the pilot lod of a vehicle without using the memory points? Can I use attachto or something similar?

All thoughts welcome.

Why wouldnt you want to use memory points ?

they dont have to be in the memory lod (steering and rpm etc are not in the mem lod) , i believe BIS use a cabin_light or Cabin_illumination already maybe try that which will be configged or if no joy then as you already suggest make a Light_addon and attach it

Hi Sealife,

The reason that I don't want to use the memory LOD is explained in this image: http://i.imgur.com/53XgAtW.png

Right now I'm using an RVMAT with emissive set to a very low level on all non-lightsources (walls, etc) in order to be able to see the bridge at night...

Unfortunately, because RVMATs don't actually emit light on to other addons, I am facing the problem where the lighting on the bridge looks okay, the infantry themselves are left completely in the dark.

I didn't know about the cabin_light/illumination points, so I'll have to check those out. Thanks. :)

[Edit: Hmmm...looks like those are no different than the actual light points. Haven't tried it yet in-game, but I think that it won't work for my purposes because I'm pretty sure they'll appear in LOD0. :/]
