I want to put a light in the scifi\wall furniture\light2.
It looks fake if I put a light near it.

I can't texture. I'm not an artist.

Well
No you can't the lamp is a solid object so it won't emit light what you need to do is to model a new lamp big enough for the light source to fit in then model glass windows as a single entity and import as a segment apply the cubeent shader insert the light and it should work.

the other option is to model a cone which is hollow import as a static entity place 3 ranged lights around the lamp place the cone over the lamp make sure the the cone is big enough to fit the lamps and all light sources apply the cubemap/cubeent shader to the cone and the cone will be invisible but still be there.The cone doesn't even need a texture only works with the standard FPSC X9


And no need to be so rude asking kindly would have worked much better

Sorry for being so rude. And I can model. I just can't make the object diagonal in milkshape 3d. And after I export it to a .X and put it in the user folder of entitybank, I open up FPSC and try it out. EVERY time I test it, it is sooo small. I even made it sooooo big in milkshape 3d! I need help.

here is an example of the type of mesh you can use to give a directional lighting effect.Import to FPSC as a entity don't worry about textures any will do and apply the cubeent.fx shader to it will be invisible but collison detection will still be enabled also shaders has to be on by default to make it insivible.

Resize enlarge as you like. just to give you an idea what I mean.

Just use the included light shader that comes with FPSC. I believe it's called illuminationent.fx.
