Giving a light angle ?

[mcunha98]

How i do this ?
The idea is create a "external light" effect...

[tltrude]

To get shadows, your skybox must be sealed and you must use "-final" option for the light compile.

Ophis,
Thanks, i will try with this technique.


Tom,
Not is it.
Acttually i want make a light effect into a dark room based in a external light (in another words, a light from external to internal enviroment).

These work for me............ play with all the angles and then try some of your own. Positive and negatives apply here also........

With the light selected, hit "n" to bring up the entity inspector

first number ( angles ) is the "key" ... second number is the "value" 90 90

first box type angles....... the numbers below go in the value box. After typing these in, hit enter to make them apply themselves.

try these ( all in the value box )

90 90

45 0

22.5 -90.00

45 90

45 270

45 180

45 135

45 315

you can use a negative ( - ) where you want. Each number you type changes the angle at which the light will more or less focus it's direction. You can use any odd number you can think of. The light will "focus" accordingly.

If you need to make a focused beam. think I saw a tut on this site somewhere.

Let us know how you make out.

isn't there a "point at" function, or is that only Q4?/D3

A light entity can also target an info null or other enity and will act like a spotlight .

[jv_map]

Use a surfacelight in the shader

A light entity can also target an info null or other enity and will act like a spotlight .

Exists tutorial about this ?

Pick the light, then the info_null or why not an info_notnull and hit ctrl (while screaming 'steuerung') & k @ the same time
