These will lead the way to the future, advancement and salvation of the human race! Or they will possibly lead to something that will destroy the universe. BOW DOWN!!

On a related not, I was the guy who made a post asking for the trippiest tracks.
yeah you could totally make this, I don't see why not
Cool..... so can you make me one?
I'm too astooped to know how to use the editor.
I get the feeling it would make the game laggy- lights alone are complex and having too many in a single area messes things up. Combine that with the lights moving super fast and it doesn't sound like the best thing to do...

Maybe this could be done with colored objects instead of lights. It wouldn't give the same awesome wash of mixed lights, but if you had a rotating black circle with several black barrels or tires and used a trigger to change colors of the tires/barrels back and forth I think it might have the same type of POV effect. Haven't tried it though.
Wouldn't the complexity be lowered if you turned the light intensity right down and changed it from making dynamic shadows to static ones? Might not be as effective to look at though, come to think of it. I think someone better at this kind of thing should answer really, not sure why I'm getting involved.
I could see static shadows helping. It's all about the lights, not the shadows cast.Originally Posted by PigManDan
Cool. I seriously suck at creating anything but it's really interesting listening to your insights.

I don't think it would have the same effect because it's just the light cone that changes color. The actual light source is always white, which has screwed up a couple neon effects I tried to create in an earlier track. I'm sure there's someone out there working on it though.
