Turn PointLight off with switch - Ananaias - 06-08-2012
I used PointLight to make a room very bright, then all lights/lamps will be turned off when the player uses a switch that is needed to progress.
I figured out the code for making the lamps turn off, but I'm having a hard time with turning PointLights off. Any help?
EIDT: dammit, put this in the wrong spot on accident. Sorry ;~;

EDIT:
I'm not sure that your able to do that, but if possible it could open up some possibilities

SetLightVisible.

This is my coding so far:
PHP Code:
void OnStart()
{
SetEntityConnectionStateChangeCallback("lever", "func_shelf");
}
void func_shelf(string &in asEntity, int alState)
{
if (alState == 1)
{
SetSwingDoorLocked("lockthisshit", true, true);
SetLampLit("light1room2", false, true);
SetLampLit("light2room2", false, true);
SetLampLit("light3room2", false, true);
SetLampLit("light4room2", false, true);
SetLampLit("light5room2", false, true);
SetLampLit("light6room2", false, true);
SetLampLit("light7room2", false, true);
SetLampLit("light8room2", false, true);
SetLampLit("light9room2", false, true);
SetMoveObjectState("shelf", 1.0f);
PlaySoundAtEntity("", "quest_completed.snt", "rotatearea", 0, false);
return;
}
}
I'm assuming I would replace "SetLampLit" with "SetLightVisible"?
EDIT: decided to try that, and I guess that's wrong. Got this error:
Sorry if this is an easy fix, I'm still very new to this stuff.
EDIT2: Awesome, I figured it out.
SetLightVisible("point1room2", false); is what I was looking for. Thanks
