What many people do with lightposts is give them a ini edit for the map

CODE
LightVisibility=5000
LightIntensity=0.2
LightRedTint=0.05
LightGreenTint=0.05
LightBlueTint=0.01

Make an ini edit with these tags, and modify each value up or down. You'll just have to expirament around to get the right value.

For your problem, the only tag you should really cange is the "light intensity", and make the number a little smaller wink1.gif

Sorry Team Black, but that is incorrect... This is how it is.

[INGRNLMP]
LightIntensity=0.2
LightRedTint=0.01
LightGreenTint=0.07
LightBlueTint=0.01
LightVisability=3000 (Or 4000, i can't remember)

What you need to change, worlord, is the LightVisability in the .INI code in your map, keep toning it down by about 100 - 200 each time, and keep looking at it ingame to be sure its as you see fit...
And thats only the Code for the Invisible green light post, i have a download for you which will make things alot easier for you, just copy and past the details into your map when it is opened up in wordpad... Simple...
Good luck.

P.S: Everyone, the attatchment i added is quite useful for getting your lighting done fast, have fun with it.
