Hey Del...In the Multiplayer map Hel3a, theres DarkDwarfLightning on the towers.I found the DarkDwarfLightning in ParticleSystem/BeamSystem, but i dont know how to make it be a bolt of lightning. I have looked and scoured the darkdwarflightning, dispatcher, and SER props (which surround and are connected to the darkdwarflightning), and have tried alot of different things, trying to make the lightning work, but to no avail. You know how to do it?
Thx
Phox

Doh , I haven't really been into that stuff in a long time. That stuff brings a lot of lag to mapping. I ended up aiming towards playable maps for ppl to enjoy, not fansy and laggy I can look into it, I have done it b4, so I could probably figure it out for ya if you really want. Fair warning though... People like nice pretty maps, though animations really tend to suck in maps. If you have say 200 ping in a map with stationary animations... learn to enjoy about 255-300 ping with many spikes and freezes.

any animation brings lag. each little flame used as a light adds to lag as well...(torches) anything moving sucks for a map...looks coo though
