objects is Kegetys Editor objects 1.02 or whatnot.

I recommend you install that addon and leave it installed. Quite nice.

Sry, I don't have lighning addon for you.

i have kegs editor ugrade installed wouldn't get very far without it (lot of missions use it )

i have had that error b4 on some nam mission (who's readme had a nice list of addons and at bottom sed "plus the ussual objects associated with nampack ) could i fuk find any !!

i tried gunslingers orig that no work either.

this joormans lightning script appears to be exactly wot i need i just have no idea how to use it cos the readme is german / comments are german and i aint got a clue about scripts + the mission to show it dont work ...

heh i dont want a lightning addon (i'm the one making the lighting i just need a way to test it quick )

There is no such command.

EDIT

WTF is a "joorman"?

You can use the drop command to create the lightning effect, but you'd probably want a script that would do it right, and add thunder, etc. And dropping it will not light up the world.

Best I can tell you

someone at ofpec pointed me in direction of a dialog drop tutorial they have that you load in mission editor and preview ,it gives you a ui with sliders on screen to mess about with particle systems(rather amazing tool). you can create lightning with it well sort of (doesn't act like lightning).

all i need is to be able to see how the 24(2 types 12 for each) lightning textures animate to see if they animate in sequence or just flicker randomly.

if they are in sequence i may be able to animate me some lightning that strikes down from sky to ground to go with my spanking new sky an rain i made.

i dont need script because i'm just trying to make nicer looking textures to put in with sky to replace originals

just need to go find out how to slow time down a bit now

"SetTimeAccuracy"or something like that i think

a joorman can be found in day of defeat

as in ..."cover me lads! i'm off to bonk them joormans in the face "
