Rotating Lighthouse Beacon [Prop]

Description
---DISCLAIMER--- For the beacon to show up correctly, it must be placed by itself, and not in a building! ---DISCLAIMER---


This is an animated, rotating lighthouse beacon prop (both the mesh and lights rotate). The rotation was set at a rate of 4 rpm, which is the standard rotation rate for lighthouse beacons. This beacon has been set to display fully zoomed out on the map - place with caution (i.e. avoid having more than a few on a single map).

The beacon light turns off during the daytime.

Performance: The main mesh has 144 Tris, with a 28 Tri LOD. It uses a 128x128 Diffuse, Specular, Illumination texture.

Placement: To place these, plop the prop on the ground next to the lighthouse asset. Use moveIt to center the light on the lighthouse window area (from above), then use PgUp to raise the light to the desired height (you may need to be in nightime to see this). If the prop does not raise up (it will do so slowly), make sure you have the prop snapping mod enabled, and make sure "conform to terrain" is not selected with moveIt.

Custom Light Effects这个mod是无法使用的所以灯塔的灯光效果是没有用的,只能放弃使用这个资产

@Interstellar13 No idea, sorry. I don't even know why the mod stopped working the way it originally did, or what the solution was for the replacement mod.
The mod worked by creating new light prefabs for each new light required. However, that caused issues for the game (no idea why). The new mod doesn't work the same way, which is why it doesn't support rotating lights.

how would I be able to fix this?

@Interstellar13 That's most likely an issue with the Custom Light Effects mod

this appears to give me an issue with trees in the background being "black squares"

@vasimr22: Thank you for your quck reply. So sad that it seems this lighthouse beacon could not brought back to life without Custom Light Effects. So so sad! Thanks for all the time it lightened up my harbor area.

@Mike Custom Effect Loader works completely differently than the Custom Light Effects mod. As I understand it, the Custom Effect Loader does not support rotating lights, so there would be no way to port it over.

@vasimr22 For me this always was the most effective single light effect in the game and it worked for me til now. But because the mod Custom Light Effects is broken, today i have changed to Custom Effect Loader instead and with that mod your prop is not working anymore. And that is very very sad, so so sad, there are also others complaining about that in this mods comments. So please try to bring your great prop back to life and to work with Custom Effect Loader !!!

Thanks for replying, no worries. I would love to have it but don’t want to destabilise things
