Smoking Sourcelights
Do smokeless tileset sourcelights annoy you? If yes, despair no more. I present you with...
SMOKING SOURCELIGHTS
Simply drop this model into your /override folder or favorite hak file and all your sourcelights will now smoke like a chimney.
UPDATE 9/8/2020 - Version 3
By request, I've updated this package, offering a four choices for builders - ONLY ONE CHOICE PER CUSTOMER PLEASE :)
- Smoking Sourcelights - All Colors w/ Lens Flares
- Smoking Sourcelights - All Colors, NO Lens Flares
- Smoking Sourcelights - Yellow w/ Natural Smoke, No Smoke for Other Colors, w/ Lens Flares
- Smoking Sourcelights - Yellow w/ Natural Smoke, No Smoke for Other Colors, NO Lens Flares
NOTE: For Options 3 or 4, colors other than yellow do NOT smoke. Yellow - the standard light for torches - gives off a heavy black/gray smoke. These options treat all other colors as magical smokeless flames.
UPDATE 9/8/2020 - Version 2
Added an alternate version that makes the yellow sourcelights closer in hue to the yellow/orange color emitted by the PC equipable torch model.

This is a great concept, thanks for doing this. Will it work in NWN 1, because until I get home thats what I'm stuck with? Downloading to check this out now, be back later to vote.
It should work with v1.69 but I haven't tried it. I'm pretty sure the EE mdl is the same as the v1.69 mdl.
Very nice addition! Good little touch! Thanks for putting time into this!
Works nicely, especially the color change. Thank you!
I love the idea, but it removes a fix we had sorted out a looong time ago about the "glare" effect of flame sources shining through objects, like placeables and even walls.
EDIT - I think you were referring to the lens flare which is in the vanilla model. Since removing the lens flare is a popular fix - personally I like the lens flares (when they work), I've uploaded a new version that includes a NO FLARE version of FX_Flame01. I've also added two other variants that remove the smoke from all but the yellow light.
It just a modification of the vanilla sourcelight model FX_FLAME01. I'm not sure how it "...removes a fix". Must be whoever "we" is has a custom version of FX_Flame01.Wow, that was really thoughtful of you, especially since you don't dislike it! Thanks, man!
Nice - thanks for sharing.
