ANOTHER css dynamic lights

has anyone had and successes getting dynamic lights (specifically the ropes that hold them to work??

i have had limited success with both tutorial methods (normal and pendulum)

im just not getting any cable/rope to appear between the light and the roof point ...

yet the dynamics work perfectly?? whats going wrong really is my question

AS this was noted in a previous post's reply ..is it just CSS thats messing me around

and has anyone got round it to have a hanging moving light WITH rope/cable

Well buddy.. i havnt had any luck either... I tried numerous times to
get the dynamic lights to work like they do in prodigy.. but each
occasion failed.. sometimes i would have weird effects where the rope
would move towards the center of the map... but either way couldnt get
it working... there are tons of sites to check out... i just moved on..
but give the VERC forums a looksie..

let me know if u find anything out

I've run into the same problem on my map. I just used the prefab from the downloads section and all of my ropes just head to the origin. I don't know what to do.

maybe it has something to do with the names of the keyframes, i think
that it could easily f**k up some stuff if all your ropes refer to the
same keyframe

ok i have found another way am testing right now...will give u an update tommorrow..have a match 2nite lol]

I downloaded the example map in this tutorial:

http://www.snarkpit.com/editing.php?page=tutorials&game=HL2&id=150

I compiled it for HL2 and it worked fine. Then I tried the same for
CS:S. The rope didn't appear between the tire and the tree, but the
tire still behaved the way it was supposed to. Something looking like a
rope did appear though, stretching from the tree into a wall, perhaps
it was towards the origin.

Has anyone seen working dynamic lights in any CS:S map?

Ya isnt that whats in de_prodigy? Right by CT spawn

It must be something with CS:S then. Because what happened with me with that example one is exactly what otZman described. Dagnabit. I'll have to come up with an alternative for s**tty cool lighting.
