Curt84328 Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 Is there an object in MBS that can serve as a light source? I want to stick one inside a building so that the windows glow.
metallix Posted July 6, 2019 Posted July 6, 2019 (edited) Hi Curt Lichtspiele.mbp I did this experiment a wee while ago. Basically, it is cubes (planes might work as well) fitted in each pane section of a window, that are colourized (white-ish ..yellow-ish) and switched visible=lights on or invisible=lights off. But fortunately, many builders now incorporate switchable illumination in their models so the workaround of mine is merely for older models without lights when you want them to have lights.

Cheers Tom That indeed does work as I am building a building entirely with cubes and planes. thanks Curtis
