[QUESTION] Lightning Effects
« on: July 27, 2012, 03:56:42 am »
Hello guys, I played around the last hours and got the question: is it possible to het an bigger lighting radius through items?
For example I took a torch and show it ingame.. the lighting radius isn't really big - nearly useless. But is it possible to get a bigger range of this light?

I just looked around and found this: http://www.wowdev.wiki/index.php ... tLK#Lights
The problem is, the only work I ever did on an Model, was an school presentation. I have no idea, where I find the file to edit this : /

Always the same with new programms... It takes a long time to understand this all without help...
I try around, maybe I get it out. Do I have to search for the torch m2 first to open this one with this 010 editor?

I am not a friend of stating things that are obvious and might have been tried faster than even clicking on the reply button.

Entering a new value, saving, packing, starting. That does not take more than a minute. So why would one wait for a reply from someone else saying yes or no?

Started : 10:17
End : 10:55

Archieved: Nothing.
Changed:

(Also float value whatever - tested all combinations in there)

Result:


Maybe I do it totaly wrong, or the effect is so tiny to see a difference betwen those.



Edit: Tested freaky values:


Can u see the difference?
