Change map lighting without changing the map

[JPSC]

I'm going to host a server and I'd like to make it change from day to night from time to time. Is it possible to do this without having to change the map?

No.

[phflack]

i think it is, or at least has been done once
i remember where all the brick's lighting changed, although not for players

[Doomonkey]

Yes

I believe lighting changes made in ME while hosting a server will be seen by players? I know other changes in the mission file such as object positions will change for players.

Maybe I'm wrong, but I thought it was only the terrain file who's changes remain unseen by other players once they are on the server.

I have experimented on said subject. Terrain changes are unseen and you are unable to modify things like the house or building, if you know what I mean. Lighting is easily modified. It won't fade or anything, but it will swap lighting immediately.

multiple small swaps = fading good enough

multiple small swaps = fading good enough

= Lag.
It takes like 5 seconds to generate.

Fail server. Doesn't cause lag for people on mine.

You can change the position of interiors. I know this because someone sunk a ship on their server using ME. It was funny ;)
