Quake2xp contains built-in light editor. To get started, you need to assign keys to editor control.
My basic key binding, add in to xpconfig.cfg:
bind INS “spawnLight”
bind HOME “spawnLightToCamera”
bind END “saveLights”
bind DEL “removeLight”
bind LEFTARROW “moveLight_right -1″
bind RIGHTARROW “moveLight_right 1″
bind UPARROW “moveLight_forward 1″
bind DOWNARROW “moveLight_forward -1″
bind PGUP “moveLight_z 1″
bind PGDN “moveLight_z -1″
bind KP_MINUS “changeLightRadius -5″
bind KP_PLUS “changeLightRadius 5″
bind KP_INS “copyLight”
bind KP_DEL “unselectLight”

Hello!
I started to map with Quake xp and i'm very excited about it. Thank you for this great mod!
I tried the light editor and i got a questions.
The CopyLight command dosent seems to work (wich it can be useful!). I tried a lot of different speeling and it keep the Player to say: "CopyLight!" like when you mispell a command in Quake2.
Do you have any idea?
Thank you very much.
Got it , its "CloneLight"
Hello! I'm still crafting/maping a Sp mission exclusive for Quake Xp. I would like to know: Is there a way to put textures with holes in the map ( as grates, fences, etc) and decals in Quake xp? I tried the 255 pink color as the original engine recognize, but it don't work in xp. I found that the Xp engine process black textures as transparency, but still, the texture become full lit wich look bad, especialy in dark areas. Do you have any ideas? Thank you very much!
