Light House question

Fifi · 01-31-21, 09:17 AM

Hi,

Quick question: do you know what file exactly makes the lights on or off on light houses?

Thanks in advance

Look in Harbor_kit.dat

Generic_light_hoouse

You'll find a ParticleGenerator

Thanks Jeff, i will

My goal was to deactivate French lighthouses lights from 1941 to end of war, as all French lighthouses were black out by Germans

That could be done.
You would need to change the light houses to a different file then use eqp.cfg to control when the ParticleGenerator is used.

THEN search all location dats for Light_hoouse so you can change the Placement Node information.

SweetScape 010 can do that in seconds instead of doing a manual search.

In stock SH3....
There are 95 occurrences in 35 files out of 97 files searched.
Granted not all of those will be French areas.

010 can also do a mass replacement of ID numbers/names once you build the new files.
