December 21, 200223 yr In the effects folder open fx_strobe or/and fx_strobeh with textviewerchange the value "Rate=5.0, 5.0" to a lower value=longer pause between flashesexample;[Emitter.0]Lifetime=0.00, 0.00Delay=0.00, 0.00Bounce=0.00No Interpolate=1Rate=2.0, 2.0etc.but also change further down[Emitter.1]Lifetime=0.00, 0.00Delay=0.00, 0.00Bounce=0.00No Interpolate=1Rate=2.0, 2.0etc.This seems more realistic to me.experiment with the rate values to suite your taste.You can add more emitters (Emitter.2 & 3; copy & paste 1 & 2 below and change to 2 & 3) and slightly offset the rate value of those; Rate=2.5, 2.5 to get that quick double flash a la dc-10 :-) Have fun!
