Light Script Error.

[Beachbum790]

Ok, so im making my custom light set, And i went to test the first color, and the color didnt show up in my Lights list, This is the script:

//Beachbums Lights
datablock fxLightData(RedLight)
{
   uiName = "Red Light";

   LightOn = true;
   radius = 10;
   brightness = 9;
   color = "1 0 0 1";

   flareOn = true;
   flarebitmap = "base/lighting/corona";
   NearSize   = 2;
   FarSize = 1;
};

datablock fxLightData(TealLight: RedLight)
{
   uiName = "Teal Light";

   LightOn = true;
   radius = 10
   brightness = 9;
   color = "0 9 9 1"
   
   flareOn = true;
   flarebitmap = "base/lighting/corona";
   Nearsize   = 2;
   Farsize = 1;
};

Dont really know what the error is... Please help me.

First of all, you're missing some semi-colons. Remember to have a ; at the end of each line.

Second of all, the colors should each range from 0.0 to 1.0

You probably know that each of the four numbers "R G B A" represents Red, Green, Blue, and Alpha (transparency).

So pure red would be:
"1 0 0 1"
(Like you have)

But instead of having "0 9 9 1", you should have something more like "0 0.9 0.9 1" or "0 0.9 0.9 0.1" depending on what you were trying to do.

Exidyne, Thank you soo much, Now my light script works, It should be up withen a few hours, But I have a question, When I get the RGBA If say my numbers would be
1 255 255 1
Should i change it to
1 0.255 0.255 1
Or what?

No, torque works with both the hexinomial (0-255 or 00-ff) color range and the 0-1 color range.
