Flickering light

[dennis]

Hello all,

 

I'm just losing my mind,.. I'm freaking out here.

Didn't know how hard it could be to let a light flicker.

 

Can someone please help me to let a simple point light flicker ?

My computer is losing control over gravity if you know what I mean (for the ones who don't know: it can fly by now)

 

Cheers

Change the color of the light rather that it's intensity. Have a look at the firepit script. It is the trick way to make it faster

okay thanks, but what part of the script do I need to use for it ?

The part that varies the color of the light.

glow:Double

lum:Double

flicker_delay:Double

color:TVec3

light_intensity:Double

light:TLight

 

'Somewhere in your main loop

'-------------------------------------

glow = Cos(MilliSecs()) * flicker_delay

lum = (Abs(glow * Sin(glow)) * 255) * Rnd(.1, .8)

EntityColor (light, Vec4((color.x + lum), (color.y + (lum / 2)), (color.z + lum), light_intensity))

 

I hope this helps..

@naughty alien, thanks... but how to do this in LUA?? is there another way ?

but it helps, when I look very clear and concentrated to it. some LUA code pops up in my brains.

 

cheers
