Only found one tutorial here that showed the usage of coronas, but in it the author was using an actual entity called 'corona', which I could not find in CoD4's Radiant, so guessing it was a different version of the editor.

Are they all just faked in CoD4 using textures, or is there an actual corona FX which I haven't been able to find? Not to mention find any information on...

In Downpour (mp_farm), for example, there's a barn with a few hanging lights with soft coronas around them, yet the mp_farm_fx.gsc file makes no mention of any corona effect.

I ran across this myself. Some of the prefabs use a script_struct to load FX.

Most lighting now uses .efx. If you naviagate to your fx folder you should see a 'light' catagory. I cant remember the exact name but shouldn't be too hard to find.

there use to be a cod 1 tutorial on Corona's. they are a in list of entitys with lights.

Thanks for the replies!

Found 'light_glow_white.efx' inside the 'misc' folder, which has a few lens flares. Thanks!
