Emergency Lighting Modifications possible anymore?

Hey, there is a much older thread on changing to client color of the emergency lights in Ns2.
Is this still possible?
Because there are MANY files that I can't find in the Lua folder.
Thanks!

    All those files still exist. Are you sure you are looking in Natural Selection 2/ns2/lua

    Just checked. The description still works just the lines changed slightly and some stuff was moved to PowerPointLightHandler.lua

    Yeah, the file if renderLight:GetType() == RenderLight.Type_AmbientVolume then (the second one) has HEAVILY changed. The guy said to change( for example ) renderLight:SetDirectionalColor(RenderLight.Direction_Right, color)
    to renderLight:SetDirectionalColor(RenderLight.Direction_Right, color2)
    and to do the same with the identical file on a lower line, but the 'identical' one looks like this
    renderLight:SetDirectionalColor(RenderLight.Direction_Right, renderLight.originalRight)
    how am I suppose to do that? Thanks for all the help, this is the first modding I've ever done for Ns2 :P

    In case you don't know you won't be able to run this on any server unless it runs the mod itself

    I have a backup lua folder on my desktop for both paths, so if I want to play on public servers I can just switch back the lua folders

    You need to use Launche.exe to create a new Steam Workshop mod, and set the server to load the mod.

    Subscribe to your own mode and look inside your "%appdata%\Natural Selection 2\Workshop" folder, the first part of the name of the folder should be the mod id. eg "ma1b2c3d_123456" means the mod id is a1b2c3d

    Hope that helps. There are guides on the modding forums about how to set up your own server.

    Um, ok. Can I ask what do I do about the different luas?
