hi,,
First, i dont know if im right here, but i hope it :D

To understand my problem u need some knowledge about an JASS function:

There is a function called " SetDayNightModels(string terrainDNCFile, string unitDNCFile) " If u call it like this: SetDayNightModels( "", "" ) it makes ur map black with no lights.

Only if u have placed "Omin's" (dont kno if this word is right in englis :d) called Light Modells ur map will get some light.

I need the knowledge to create such lights.

I hope somebody can help me with this.

Im using gmax an dim a real Modelling noob, so a good explain will be great.


Thanks to all of u for help!

lol, its very easy, just look for the lights in max's creation tab.

You can use Omni (it lights in in all directions), SpotLight(It lights an specific area), and Directional. the 3 lights shouldn't use Targets, so you need to add a stand animation and Rotate them to do the trick.

After thsat, just print with Dex and that's it.

hey Chaos-Mapper, if you could create a model which show the terrain totally white, I would be very grateful
