im not a good scripter but i found this out through rasta "thanks man yours worked for me "
i down loaded his zip worked the first time like the rain that stops few minutes after you enter the map
i use his firstmap.gsc for the rain
copy this from rasta gsc
main()
{
// preload rain efx
maps\mp\_rain::preload(12);
maps\mp\mp_yourmap_fx::main();
maps\mp\_load::main();
ambientPlay("ambient_farm");
game["allies"] = "marines";
game["axis"] = "opfor";
game["attackers"] = "axis";
game["defenders"] = "allies";
game["allies_soldiertype"] = "desert";
game["axis_soldiertype"] = "desert";
setdvar( "r_specularcolorscale", "1.85" );
setdvar("compassmaxrange","2100");
// start rain efx
thread maps\mp\_rain::start();
// start rain runtime function (optional)
thread rain_runtime();
}
rain_runtime()
{
maps\mp\_rain::time(0.01);
wait(10);
for (i=0.05; i<1.1; i+=0.2)
{
i = int(100*i)/100;
iprintln("Change waiting time to " + i);
maps\mp\_rain::time(i);
wait(1);
}
for (i=1.1; i>0.01; i-=0.1)
{
i = int(100*i)/100;
iprintln("Change waiting time to " + i);
maps\mp\_rain::time(i);
wait(1);
}
now copy and paste a fx from cargoship change the name to mp_yourmap_fx.gsc

this is the script i used

ok almost there :
open your map
right click and pick script/origin
hit n raise enitiy box and add this only
key- lightning_mp_farm_a
value- bolt
thats it save and close
compile bsp, reflections, update zone ,build ff, run game,close
update zone build ff,and run game, there you go lightning
