Author | Topic: Numbered lights
Vivi_Ornitier Member Posts: 148 From:Black Mage Village Registered: Jul 2001 | posted 02-11-2002 10:21 AM Is there a way around 'the maximum number of lights'? If not I'll have to spend next to forever creating four smaller levels rather than one huge one. Thanks, MV IP: Logged

Yasin Member Posts: 270 From:Netherlands Registered: Jan 2002 | posted 02-11-2002 11:29 AM There are only 32 or 36 lights allowed in a room. Sun - Fog - Effect and spot count as light. ------------------ The best thing and last thing is to try ( ^_^ )=b IP: Logged
aktrekker Member Posts: 1016 From:WA, USA Registered: Apr 2001 | posted 02-11-2002 11:49 AM The limit is 32 per room, 768 per level. Cameras, sinks, fog bulbs, sounds, and all lights count. It appears that flame emitters also have some affect. They don't count toward the total, but during game play they will affect lighting. Other limits are: 20 doors per room 100 objects per room (static, moveable, and triggers) 2000 objects per level 512 triggers per level IP: Logged

eTux Member Posts: 525 From:Valmiera, Latvia Registered: Jan 2002 | posted 02-12-2002 08:57 AM No, Yasin, the level editor doesn't count static objects as objects, so it is possible if you count them. IP: Logged

Yasin Member Posts: 270 From:Netherlands Registered: Jan 2002 | posted 02-12-2002 10:20 AM Yea, i thought I the kill_all_triggers nullmesh isnt been used. The best solution for flare bug is to anti trigger them, but it requires a good view on the prj, since if you want to trigger them back again ------------------ The best thing and last thing is to try ( ^_^ )=b IP: Logged

I think the editor read 256 options.. *gulp* With "object" he means the sum of the number of doors, lights, moveable objects (/256),triggers, sounds and static objects. I have reached that 2000 quite often and I needed to split the level up or rationalize the objects. ------------------ Visit my site at: http://users.skynet.be/Alexis.Rombaut/index.htm IP: Logged
