night lighting inside bmp 3 and other tanks?

[diveplane 0]

is there a way to add night low light red lighting inside the tanks trucks etc.

i noticed in the campaign the uh1 has this , but when testing in editor at night its not there?

is there a light trigger?

It is? Cool. Probably a scripted thing. Depbo the mission and search for 'light' maybe?

in UH1, I think probably it's because the helo have its lights turn on, much like the cars headlight. But in aircrafts(helo included) the lights that turned on are the search light(helos) and the red and green lights (directional lights? dont know what its called)

Maybe thats why there's light in the cabin of UH1. Im just guessing

Yep would think so. Go in editor and make it night. Add the heli and turn on the lights "L" and it will also lit up inside. Its not an inside light but the light goes "through" the model - or bounce into the cockpit.

But maybe the campaign added some lightsource? Not sure havent played it yet.

ok i found it i was right

script command in campaign mission 3 IntoTheStorm , if you look inside the uh1 in this mission at the start there is a red light inside the uh1..

this would be great adding this script to all tanks etc in game for night ops.

line found in initJIPcompatible .SQF file.

.......

//add light to the Huey cabin

_cabinLight = "#lightpoint" createVehicle position BIS_BVenom;

_cabinLight setLightBrightness 0.00075;

_cabinLight setLightAmbient [1.0, 0.0, 0.0];

_cabinLight setLightColor [1.0, 0.0, 0.0];

_cabinLight lightAttachObject [bIS_BVenom, [0, -3.25, -0.25]];

anyone figure how to get this to work ..
