Title: Light effects at map coordinates, not screen coordinates
Post by: S.K. Ren on September 30, 2009, 12:35:55 PM
How do you do it? I can't figure it out with events so is there a way to script it?

I'm trying to make my streetlamps light up but all I have is a bright circle on my screen that moves with me.

If you think this is better done with events tell me also, I'll focus there more instead.

Thanks ahead of time. (Just realized, where would I ask an eventing question if scripting not the way to go?)

Yes the picture showed, but it didn't blend and create a light effect it just made the darkness a little lighter.

Add the image you use into the characters folder in your graphics directory.
Then make a new event in the editor and find the image you want to use and then that is it.

Don't know if it's exactly right, I don't have my RMXP in front of me right now as I'm not at my normal computer.
