allowed?

This is not really a light effect. It is actually just an img done using transparency. One of my GAT's made it for his place.
Would this be ok, it doesnt use any light commands or the light2.png either? (btw. dont steal idea)

I dont see how it wouldnt.... there's lights sorta like that on n-pulse...

hehe I used to look around to see things to put in levels (this was before light effects were available) and I always saw light and stuff .. then it came out on P2P pw's .. so this is just like a type for free.

I think they're allowed as long as they don't use setcoloreffect and stuff.

Loopholes in rules are fun ;D

I wouldn't call that a loophole since it's nothing but pixels, can't be used to light of the night etc etc...

There's a great animated lamp in the webgifs that's the best fake light effect I've ever seen.

Consult Stefan about this.

I'd have it removed, but it isn't exactly a light effect, but it looks ALOT like one, except just an image.

If people were allowed to do this, they'd just screebshot light effects and make GIFs and PNGs out of it.

Slaktmaster · #13 01-19-2002, 06:38 AM

That would be ugly. Believe me, there are millions of advantages with real lights.

In psp 7 there is that touchup icon right...That is another loop hole.....heh

Yeah.
