How do I make a node on a scenery emit a flashlight? and actually produce light? do i have to make it a light_fixture? I have a node on it named "flood_light".

It's actually supposed to be a marker, so it would be #flood_light in 3ds max/gmax. in the scenery, add an attachment referencing to the marker flood_light (without the #) and change the type of attachment to either a .light tag or a .effect tag. Make sure the attachment is what you want though.

okay, I made it into a marker, and put "levels\b30\devices\light fixtures\generic light" on it as an attachment.
marker flood_light primary scale none secondary scale none change color none but nothing emits. |

Take the flashlight that is used by the cyborg, put it as an attachment on the scenery piece. That should work. Also make sure that the "scale by" function dropboxes are set to "none" if you want it to be constant.
