ages since i asked a mapping question here, but now i am stuck again
i put a 'lamp>swinging-lantern' in my map, i kinda expected to swing but oh well, it had a cool flame in, which was just what i wanted.
anyway, as i tested this map i noticed you can only partially see it, or not at all, until you get up close. Here's a pic to explain better. getting closer with every screenie, you can see more of the lantern.

I woudn't mind if you could only not see it far away, but you can't see it in a room where you can see everyother thing!
I am sure this is not my PC, as i have every single setting max, with my new PC
also,
i have a fireplace in my map, and would like to see some fire in it. I have tried every fire thing on the right-click menu... but all have been either too big or different types of fires.
i have tried all fx>fire, fx>fire>****, and static>FX>fire (which is the same as fx>fire).
so how would i get a fire the size of a fireplace, like the fireplace in static>furniture>fireplaceset ?
many thanks for any help, and sorry for the typing mistakes!
