Lights

[RedHawk504]

Hey people,

I'm busy with a emergency vehicle and i want just like in real polygons lights which will exactly will fit into the led light. And not any bigger corona's what will blink on the half of the led.

I hope someone knows.

place a corona anyway and scale it down (30-40 for an led light should do), you can remove it anytime by de-selecting "corona".

then zoom in and navigate to where you want the polygon. (use mouse, up, down, left, right to navigate)

klick on "add poly"

klick somewhere on the face (3 times round one point should do for now)

3, with white lines connected, green squares appear... those are the corners of your polygon, you can move them by holding down left mouse button and moving the mouse.

you can add more corners by klicking between 2 existing corners.

you can change the colour by selecting the poly and editing "r", "g" and "b" values

ATTENTION

if a line gets thinner or disappears the polygon is gonna have a "hole" on that place if zoom in too much.

you can add muliple polys to one light.

if you wanna move the whole poly on a face, hold down "left shift" while moving it around.

navigation and placing can be tricky, always control what you've done by leaving the lights menu and checking the model from different perspectives.

that's the basics...

hope i could help
