soz to triple post, but post time expired and I forgot the code for the dynamic light needed for normal mapping:

var light_dist=1700; //this is how far away form a light it will be visible.
action light_pos_object
{
wait(5);
my.invisible=on;
my.passable=on;


my.lightrange=50; //could be set also to a skill


my.red=my.skill1; //just put in the r,g,b values
my.green=my.skill2;
my.blue=my.skill3;

my.cast=on; //casts a shadow when on

}
