try using a .bik video texture for the lights

just create two versions of your light texture, a normal one and a 'lit up' version.. make a nice strobe video of it in windows movie maker, save it.. then convert it to .bik with the 'rad video tools' (if i remember correctly! heheh)

You mean strobe lights via the effect system yes? I haven't seen any code relating to this myself but have a general idea on how it could be achieved.

surely a strobe light is just a flashing texture, however you look at it. Bik or effect.. its the same thing at the end of the day?
