Just wanted to throw together the compiled list of solutions for using multiple omnilights using my Dungeon lighting Kit. These explain how to get and use three Gravity omnilight (GL style) torches in a scene in P4 and in P5. I'm using the torch as an example, but the same principles apply to other things, too. P4: Easy:

  1. Load up the GL torch. One down, two to go.
  2. Load up the L torch. Load up the 'Gravity Up' prop from the Gravity props library. Select the L torch's flame and set it to 'Point At' target 'The Sky'. Two down, one to go.
  3. Load up the G torch. Look in your Figures:Omnidirectional Lights library. Load up an Omni. Set it where the third flames is.

Viola. P5: Less easy: 1. Load up the GL torch. One down, two to go.

  1. Load up the L torch. Load up the 'Gravity Up' prop from the Props:Gravity library. Select the L torch's flame and set it to 'point at' target 'The Sky'. Two down, one to go.
  2. Here's he tricky one. Load up the G torch. Load up the Brazier or Votive or some other prop you're not using in the scene with the same sort of light. Find the prop called LiteLock in the heirarchy editor that belongs to the Brazier's (or whatever's) flame. Open 'Object Properties' and 'Change Parent' to be the G torch's flame. Zero out the X, Y, and ZTran dials. Set the yTran to the right height. Delete the brazier figure.

Viola.
