Maybe the problem is that it's the atdm:lamp_wall_gasflame03_lit entity (which is an idStaticEntity) that has an s_shader set, not the light_gasflame attachment (which is the actual light entity)?

Some of the electric lights have the shader applied that way and they stop making sounds when turned off, so its must be an issue with the entity definition for the gas light.

Do those electric lights have idStaticEntity spawnclasses or idLight spawnclasses? atdm:wall_sphere_lit for example is an idLight entity. Whereas atdm:lamp_wall_gasflame03_lit is an idStaticEntity which spawns an idLight attachment.

Electric lights differ from gas lights and flames. While the first ones are light entities themselves, the latter one are only static objects with a light entity attached. Use the set command to alter spawnargs on attached entities or create your own entity.

      Does anyone actually use the Normalise button in the Surface inspector? Even after looking at the code I'm not quite sure what it's for.

      Turns out my 15th anniversary mission idea has already been done once or twice before! I've been beaten to the punch once again, but I suppose that's to be expected when there's over 170 FMs out there, eh? I'm not complaining though, I love learning new tricks and taking inspiration from past FMs. Best of luck on your own fan missions!

      I wanna play Doom 3, but fhDoom has much better features than dhewm3, yet fhDoom is old, outdated and probably not supported. Damn!
      Makes me think that TDM engine for Doom 3 itself would actually be perfect.

      Maybe a bit of advice ? In the FM series I'm preparing, the two main characters have the given names Toby and Agnes (it's the protagonist and deuteragonist, respectively), I've been toying with the idea of giving them family names as well, since many of the FM series have named protagonists who have surnames. Toby's from a family who were usually farriers, though he eventually wound up working as a cobbler (this serves as a daylight "front" for his night time thieving). Would it make sense if the man's popularly accepted family name was Farrier ? It's an existing, though less common English surname, and it directly refers to the profession practiced by his relatives. Your suggestions ?

      Looks like the "Reverse April Fools" releases were too well hidden. Darkfate still hasn't acknowledge all the new releases. Did you play any of the new April Fools missions?
