You know the cog which is switching thing sector of big 3do's to player actual sector. (It's needed to see models in other than parent sector)

But in dark maps this has side effect. Brightness of 3do's is changing when player entering to sectors which have different extra_light or are brighter or darker.

Is possible to fix this problem ?

Just off the top of my head...could you use a thingpulse to constantly reset the value to its original one?

I don't know if it is correct.
This thing don't emits light.

I think GetThingLight() gets value of light this thing is emitting. So SetThingLight wouldn't be a good idea.
Am i wrong?

Actually, search the forum for GBK's flicker.cog It doesn't change the sector of the 3do, it simply refreshes it's template (forcing it to render).

I foud this cog but it works another way .

Exactly in pulse message:
-----------------------------------

"pos = CreateThingAtPos(type, GetThingSector(Player), GetThingPos(Ghost), GetThingLVec(Ghost));"

------------------------------------
So it changing 3do's sector to player sector! and have this same problem when brightness of player sector deiffers form orginal 3do sector.

Hmm, Ive never seen that problem in particular, but it does answer alot of questions about my light flicker prevention cog....
