This is really a questin for Bobbau.

Is there a lmit to the nmber of glow points a model can have? I ask because I can't seem to get more that 4 on the Uly, as the fifth one removes the first, the sixth removes the second and so on.

I've gotten way more than 4 on a ship...I had 14 red ones as landing lights, and a few more miscellaneous ones on a destroyer.

Which program are you using? I`m guessing that one of you used PCS and the other one Aurora

[deep_eyes]

im guessing the limit to the glowmaps is the limitations of a computer. cause i did a couple small ships with of glowing parts, and it lagged, same as big ships etc. u have to be selective for what has to and what u want to glow.

I am using the latest version of PCS (1.34).

If you hold on a bit I'll post some shots of where the glowopoints are on the Uly.

Also, there are some other bugs. I noticed that unless the on and off times are equal, the light flickers for about half its on time, and PCS won't allow me to use the beamglows, only thruster and laser glows.

Right, some pics of glowpoints.

This is the Uly in the tech room. The two large lights on the wings flash.


Here we see the Medusa in the techroom.


Here's the herc in game. The blue lights flash. There is one on each pylon affair, one faces forward, the other backwards.


Here's the Uly in game, you get a good view of the lights and my Yorrkshire Insignia.

I think there is a limit to the number of glow points you can have in a bank, but PCS should not care about that limit

Ah'll go to 't foot of our stairs.

Anway, how can I get more glowpoints then? Aurora? And where can I D/L it?

I gave it a try with PCS v1.3.4 and it worked fine. Are you trying to put all the lights in one bank? (Not that that should work either!)

As for Aurora simply do a search for it on HLP or VWBB as I can`t remember the address.

No, the two front lights were in two separate banks, so they would flash independantly, then I wanted two other banks, each with two points.

So thats 4 banks and 6 lights, but when I added the last two, the first two were removed.
