Does anyone that's into scripting know of a lightning visual (like, an actual lightning bolt)?
All the other visuals are just flashes or are non-existant altogether. I need it for a new map that i will be making; an Aztec sandbox. It will feature a challenge with custom speech! That challenge is nearly done, but the other components of the map have quite a long way to go.
 
I like the way lightning was done in BW1, but alas, that's a bit off-topic.

Isn't there a time setting for the visual effects? I know there is a size setting which is probably why you can't see some if you're using 00din's visual effects script.

I don't know if you've seen these yet. But are they of any help?

Code:
    VISUAL_EFFECT_WEATHER_LIGHTNING_FLASH           =  225 ,
    VISUAL_EFFECT_WEATHER_LIGHTNING_LIGHT           =  226 ,
    VISUAL_EFFECT_WEATHER_LIGHTNING_STRIKE          =  227 ,
    VISUAL_EFFECT_WEATHER_LIGHTNING_EXPLOSION       =  228 ,
    VISUAL_EFFECT_WEATHER_LIGHTNING_TRAVEL_A        =  229 ,
    VISUAL_EFFECT_WEATHER_LIGHTNING_TRAVEL_B        =  230 ,
    VISUAL_EFFECT_WEATHER_LIGHTNING_TRAVEL_C        =  231 ,
    VISUAL_EFFECT_WEATHER_LIGHTNING_TRAVEL_D        =  232 ,
 
I have tried flash, strike, explosion and travel A. None of these seem to work, and travel A and strike weren't even visable. I remember Dax's creed script included with greenpatch had a good lightning spell. I'll go and check it out, but dont hesitate to give me other ideas  :)
